Payments will be made to you on a monthly basis within 30 days after the end of the month. You can choose to be paid either via bank transfer, Moneybookers or Neteller. The Rank Affiliate Programme operates in GBP currency and the minimum payment threshold is £50.   If your earnings in the month are below this threshold then your balance will be rolled over until your cumulative earnings reach the threshold.   Any earnings that are rolled over from a previous month are ring-fenced and will NOT be affected by any negative revenue values in subsequent months.

Any negative revenues on your affiliate account are automatically zeroed at the end of the calendar month. However, we reserve the right in exceptional circumstances not to zero any negative revenue values on an account. Feel free to contact us with any questions about this matter. Email us on affiliates@rank.com
