# Automatic Payment Processing

This page explains how automatic payment processing works in AnyTag, including eligibility rules, processing timeline, and exceptions for specific campaign types.

## 🧾 What Triggers Automatic Payment Request

Payment requests will be generated on the **5th day of each month at 00:00 SGT** if — and only if — **ALL** the following conditions are fulfilled:

### 1. Campaigns have ended.

Your campaigns's end date must fall **in the previous calendar month.**

Example scenario: 

<table><thead><tr><th width="132.30804443359375">Payment Execution Date</th><th>Campaign End Date</th><th width="210.4864501953125">Meets End Date Condition?</th><th>Included?</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td>July 5</td><td>✅ June 30</td><td>✅ Yes — previous month</td><td>✅ Included</td></tr><tr><td>July 5</td><td>❌ July 1 or later</td><td>❌ No </td><td>❌ Not included</td></tr></tbody></table>

### 2. Post approvals are completed **BEFORE 00:00 (SGT) on the 5th of the current month.**

All influencer post approvals must be finished on AnyTag **before 00:00 (SGT) on the 5th** of the current month — meaning **by the end of the day on the 4th (23:59 SGT)** at the latest.

Example scenarios:

<table><thead><tr><th>Campaign End Date</th><th width="192.605712890625">Post Approval Timestamp (SGT)</th><th>Payment Cycle Processed</th><th>Result</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td>June 30</td><td>July 4, 20:15</td><td>July 5</td><td>✅ Included</td></tr><tr><td>June 30</td><td>July 5, 00:05</td><td>August 5</td><td>❌ Delayed 1 month</td></tr></tbody></table>

### 3. Influencers add their Payment information **BEFORE 00:00 (SGT) on the 5th.**

To be eligible for automatic payment processing, **influencer must complete their payment information setup** on AnyCreator **before 00:00 (SGT) on the 5th** of the current month.

Example Scenarios:

<table><thead><tr><th>Execution Date (SGT)</th><th width="155.63983154296875">Payment Info Submission Time</th><th width="148.4281005859375">Payment Processed?</th><th>Notes</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td>July 5</td><td>July 4, 17:30</td><td>✅ Yes</td><td>✅  Included in July cycle</td></tr><tr><td>July 5</td><td>July 5, 00:10</td><td>❌ No</td><td><p>❌ Will be picked up in August </p><p>(if valid)</p></td></tr></tbody></table>

#### [Register Payment Information?](https://anymind-group.gitbook.io/anycreator-help-page/getting-started/settings/register-payment-information)

{% hint style="danger" %}
Please remind your influencers to update their payment details during onboarding or at the latest by the 4th of each month to avoid delays in payouts.
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="warning" %}
Failure to meet any of these criteria will result in the campaign (or specific influencers within it) being **excluded from the current cycle** and finalized in the next month.
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="info" %}
The automatic payment processing logic outlined above applies **only to Social media MKP campaigns.**
{% endhint %}

### 📌Affiliate & Auto-Management Campaigns

**Affiliate** and **Auto-Manage (eCommerce)** campaigns are typically long-running or always-on campaign types. As such, they are designed to support **recurring monthly payments**, regardless of their campaign end date.

#### ❌ **Campaign end date is ignored.**

*These campaigns are **exempt from the campaign-end-date condition**. Payments can still be processed even if the campaign is **ongoing**.*

#### ✅ Post approval cutoff and Payment Info submission deadline still applies.

Example Scenarios:

<table data-header-hidden><thead><tr><th width="109.44378662109375"></th><th></th><th width="112.4432373046875"></th><th width="127.2353515625"></th><th width="115.9080810546875"></th><th></th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td><strong>Campaign</strong></td><td><strong>Campaign Period</strong></td><td><strong>Post Approval Date (SGT)</strong></td><td><strong>Payment Info Submission Time (SGT)</strong></td><td><strong>Payment Finalization Date (SGT)</strong></td><td><strong>Conclusion</strong></td></tr><tr><td>A</td><td>Mar 1 – Oct 31</td><td>June 2</td><td>May 20</td><td><strong>June 5</strong></td><td>Post approved <strong>before</strong> cutoff → included in June cycle </td></tr><tr><td>B</td><td>Mar 1 – Nov 1</td><td><p>June 4 </p><p>23:00 </p></td><td>June 4    23:55</td><td><strong>Jun 5</strong></td><td>Same as Campaign A </td></tr><tr><td>C</td><td>Apr 1 - Dec 31</td><td>June 3</td><td>June 5    00:10</td><td><strong>July 5</strong></td><td>Payment Info was submitted  <strong>after</strong> cutoff  → included in July cycle </td></tr><tr><td>D</td><td>Mar 1 – Aug 1</td><td>June 6</td><td>June 3</td><td><strong>July 5</strong></td><td>Post approved <strong>after June 5</strong> → picked up in next cycle. </td></tr></tbody></table>
