Payments Report

This report includes your payment amounts, tax withholding, payment type, and other information in a view that you can filter by sales period, marketplace, and payment status. To filter by sales period, marketplace, or payment status, click the drop-down menus at the top of the page and select the filter criteria you want.
 
You can use this report even if you've selected to be paid by check, and you can download a copy of this report by clicking "Create Excel Report."
 
When you have qualifying sales in a given month, you will be paid approximately 60 days later. Around the 20th of each month, you will get a payment notification e-mail indicating that this report will be ready for you to view. We used to call that e-mail "Remittance Advice" and included this data there, but now you can run the data any time once the payment has been processed.
 
Report Column Headings:
After you run a report, you'll see data in the following columns:

                                                                                               
Payment NumberThe unique number that identifies this payment transaction. If you have questions about a payment, make a note of this number.
Sales PeriodThe sales included in this payment happened in this sales period.
MarketplaceThe Amazon Kindle marketplace where the sales occurred.
Payment status*This will show "Paid," "Pending," or "Failed**," depending on the status of your payment.
DateThe date when Amazon transferred funds to your bank account.
Payment MethodYour preferred payment method (EFT, Wire, or Check).
Accrued RoyaltyRoyalty amount for your sales in each marketplace, shown in that marketplace's local currency. This will match the royalty column in your Prior Month's Royalties report.
Tax WithholdingTax withheld from the applicable royalty amount. This is shown in the marketplace's local currency.
AdjustmentsAdjustments made to your royalty payments, if applicable. Adjustments include things like correcting past underpayments and overpayments,  processing refunds, etc. This is shown in the marketplace's local currency.
Net EarningsThis is the net royalty amount, after tax and adjustments. This is shown in the marketplace currency.
FX Rate*Estimated foreign exchange rate applied at the time of payment. Will say "N/A" if this marketplace uses the same currency that you've selected for payments.
Payment*Final amount you will be paid after tax withholdings, adjustments, and currency conversion. This is shown in your preferred currency.

* If your bank is still processing a payment, your Payment Status, FX Rate, and Payment columns will display "Pending" as their status.

** If your payment shows "Failed," make sure that the Payment Settings section of your KDP account matches what you have on file with your bank—exact match for routing and account numbers, as well as the name. You can publish using a pen name, but you must be paid under the same name your bank has on file. If you are waiting for a payment and have updated your account, use the Contact Us form to let us know you've made a change.
