Payment mismatch

Doguz

Hi, I finally got my first payment from Apple and the amounts don't match. It's exactly $20 out to what it says in iTunes connect. Does anyone know where that $20 is?

I have the amount minus $22, but I see that a transfer fee of $2 has gone out as well. But no sign of the $20

I'm Australia BTW.

Wait, so the money isn't in your bank account?

Did you give it 48-72 hours wait?

Not sure if this helps, but yeah...

Good luck!

ITC says a payment of $153.62AUD has been paid. My bank statement says $128.62 from Apple and another item of $2 for a transfer fee (Which I assume is associated with this payment).

So I'm actually $23 out, not $20! It doesn't seem like a tax or anything because it's rounded up to the dollar.

Australians, What is the difference between your ITC payments vs your actual payments? And anyone else in the world for that matter.

I have no idea. That's a bummer...

A comment such as "I don't have a mismatch in my accounts" or "I have the same mismatch in my accounts" would be better than that vague response. If you have no idea, why respond? I've asked a question, not a discussion. Please try to contribute and not clog it up.

Apple may have withheld something for US taxes if you did not provide them with the proper tac forms. Apple would be a much better place to contact about this as its them making the payment to you and no one here will have any way to accurately know why you may be missing this amount since we are not the ones who shorted your payment.

Thanks @tenrdrmer It sounds from your comment that this ISN'T normal. So my next step is to check in with Apple. Thanks.

Hi again. Just want to re-open this thread. Can all Australian developers please comment here. And tell me if your itunes Connect payment screens match your actual earnings. eg. what get's paid into your account.

The difference for me now is exactly $25 AUD. Every payment. I've spoken to Apple and they say they aren't withholding it. I've spoken to my bank and they say they aren't taking it. (Just a $2 transfer fee). So somewhere between Apple and my bank I'm losing $25 every month.

The fact that it's $25AUD even, every month, tells me that it's an Australian fee by an Australian business so maybe it's Apples bank in Australia?

Please tell me if you're Australian and also losing $25 each month. Is it something I/we can avoid?

Thanks in advance
