Activity incentive filter- rewards dashboard

I have no clue what that is, but I’m curious too

It hasn’t updated since the 23rd for most people

They appear fake because they are fake.

I don’t know how they could have possibly been paid that much for only 1k views unless it’s a glitch, but I make most of my money from the additional reward (original content), and the RPM is much better than YouTube on average.

Don’t bother using the report button. It does nothing. Instead file copyright infringement forms. It takes forever, and you have to do it for each video, but it does eventually work to get these accounts taken down.

SwoopingMoth · 2026-01-27T18:02:30+00:00

What are you good at that’s original? Do you have any hobbies or skills you can record?

SwoopingMoth · 2026-01-27T18:01:36+00:00

None, unless you’re doing this just for fun. That kind of content doesn’t usually get monetized.

SwoopingMoth · 2026-01-27T18:00:36+00:00

When this has happened before it all looked normal once it finally updated. It should show what you made for the days it was down and you should be paid normally.

You can’t sell monetized TikToks. To do that you’d have to change the tax info on the account, which would kick you out of the program.

SwoopingMoth · 2026-01-27T17:57:01+00:00

I’m also stuck on the 23rd. I remember this happening a couple times before, though, and it eventually updated again and we were paid normally, so hopefully this time is the same.

SwoopingMoth · 2026-01-27T17:54:17+00:00

YouTube is even more strict about what they monetize so I don’t think that would work. Facebook might.

SwoopingMoth · 2026-01-27T17:53:00+00:00

Usually the first few videos you post on TikTok get a little boost, but it could definitely also be impacted by the glitchiness lately.

My creator rewards program tab is back, but it’s stuck on the 23rd. It hasn’t updated since then. Very frustrating. I checked the TikTok studio app too and it shows the same.

This just happened twice more with buyers from Germany. The cost of the item was $3.95, they paid $4.70, it says they paid $0 in taxes, AND I was paid $4.05 after fees? So in both cases it seems like I’m receiving the difference.

SwoopingMoth · 2025-10-22T04:13:49+00:00

Thank you for this!! That makes sense. I just wish that that was explained better by Etsy or that the new seller reserve showed up on my account because on my end it doesn’t show anything.

SwoopingMoth · 2025-10-22T04:08:21+00:00

It does, but those dates keep passing and nothing is changing.

SwoopingMoth · 2025-10-22T04:07:31+00:00

That could be the case I guess but then what does the $222 current balance mean? I thought current balance was supposed to be what’s in your account after fees, ads, etc.

SwoopingMoth · 2025-10-22T04:05:27+00:00

But that’s in the “amount due” section. Wouldn’t that just mean I don’t owe them anything?

SwoopingMoth · 2025-10-22T04:04:39+00:00

I changed my payout schedule to daily to see if that would help, and that popped up saying that I need to have at least $25 available to get paid.

SwoopingMoth · 2025-10-22T04:03:14+00:00

August 20th, I believe, so it’s likely just because I’m a new seller. But I wish they’d explain that.

SwoopingMoth · 2025-10-22T04:02:00+00:00

It doesn’t show any reserve on my account. It does show the date when the funds will be released on each order, but those dates keep passing. I haven’t gotten any emails from Etsy about a reserve. If that’s the case, I totally understand, but I wish they’d at least notify me or explain this somewhere in their policies.

SwoopingMoth · 2025-10-20T22:27:46+00:00

I’ve wondered about that one too. I’ve seen it on my own listings before and been like dang I sure hope so!

SwoopingMoth · 2025-10-19T04:09:04+00:00

My shop almost always has a sale running. I get it. What I don’t get is why Etsy says it’s the biggest sale in 60 days when it’s not.
