All revenue share calculations are done on transactions for which Microsoft was able to collect money. The collection time can vary depending on the payment method. In general, you will be paid:
- 15 to 30 days for credit card billing
- 90 to 120 days for mobile operator billing
If you’re a developer, you will be paid 70% of all application sale prices as your revenue share. At the end of the month, Microsoft will total all transactions for your application sales on which we were able to collect money. Your 70% revenue share is then applied to the total and if that equals or exceeds $200 USD we will initiate an Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) payment to your bank account. You are responsible for paying all taxes on the payments you receive.
To set up a payment method, you’ll need to register a bank account. You can update your bank information through your profile.
