Social Spark Payouts
This is something I didn't know......
On Social Spark posties must reach $20 before cashing out via paypal or any other method. With this being another IZEA company I thought the process would work the same as Pay Per Post but apparently not.
Fortunately this has worked well for me as at my first payment date I had the wrong paypal email address registered, now the 2nd date has passed I thought I'd double check that the payment had been made. This is where I realized it was up to the postie to "cash out" and that my balance of $11.55 couldn't be taken until I reach $20.
I do have 2 more approved posts that will increase this balance to a little over $21 but it also means waiting a little longer to get hold of that money. I do prefer the Pay Per Post system for this reason and the fact that if I don't meet the criteria I don't see the opportunity. At Social Spark I am still seeing the green light when they are asking for US bloggers only. Not great when I live in the UK.
I wonder if my blog was hosted in the US I'd get around this issue? Anyone have any thoughts on that?

Hello Phil! thanks for your comment on my page....btw, I got paid from PPP and sponsoredreviews. I a gree with you about the cash out thing. I dont know yet on SS because I did not try to cash out mine yet....sponsoredreviews takes 2 weeks only to pay you..no matter how much is the amount.
Anyhow, I would recommend you to put up a shoutbox on your page...so everyone can leave their message easily.
