My invoice doesn't look right
It is vital to consider the different contract terms when you suspect your invoice isn’t correct. Below is a case study where various contract terms created an invoice that didn’t reflect the payouts as the user expected.
Contract terms: The brand's contract had an action-locking period set to 15 days after the end of the month in which the action occurred. The contract set the payout schedule to 10 days after action locking.
With these contract terms in mind, if an action occurred in April, it will lock on May 16th. impact.com will pay the action into your account on May 27th. That payout would appear on the next generated invoice, and in this case, that would be on June 1st.
