Q1 2026 royalty payment correction
Written By Hanna / The Topo
Last updated 6 months ago
Due to a backend issue, March royalties were not calculated correctly for approximately 300 authors. We caught this after the Q1 2026 payment had already been processed.
This means:
Some authors were paid too little — March royalties were missing from their payment
Some authors were paid too much — as a result of the miscalculation
What we’re doing
We have recalculated the correct royalties for every affected author and are issuing corrections as soon as possible.
If you were underpaid: you will receive the missing amount shortly.
If you were overpaid: the difference will be deducted from your next quarterly payment.
We’re sorry for the confusion. We take this seriously and do our best that it will never happen again.
