Kontera Payment Problems

Stocks and Shares - Make Money Online - Payment Problems with Kontera

We all know how easy it is to make money online trading shares, some people however prefer to seek out difficulties and, given the harsh economic times we are going through, are looking on the Internet to find ways of how to make money online by working from from home. One popular activity is blogging and one popular way of making money is by putting ads. on your blog. Most of these ads are provided by Google but there are other companies who have tried to provide similar services.

Google is a bona fide company that does what it says on the tin, it would appear however, allegedly, that Kontera has a different approach to business and appears to view paying its publishers (bloggers to you and me) as being optional .

Kontera has in its Terms and Conditions a Clause known a Clause 4.2 or Catch 4.2 as it is also called, that goes like this :-

"4.2 Payment Terms ............ Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Revenue Share for any given month is five dollars ($5) or less, Kontera shall not be liable to the Publisher for any such payment. "

which means in plain English, if you make $5 or less in any given month then Kontera keeps it for itself. You also need to get to $100 dollars before Kontera pays you anything, which will take years if you have a small blog and even longer if Kontera pockets every month that you make $5 or less.

There are also people saying that even when they get over the magic $100 they are still having trouble getting Kontera to pay up.

If you are using or were contemplating using Kontera then clearly the advice is don't bother - for further details check out - Make Money Online
