Yeah, it's funny but very true! I used to think it was only in the developed world post codes were used till I googled and found out Nigeria also uses post codes.

Anytime you come across peeps complaining of not receiving their Payoneer card, the first question to ask is: did you input post code in your application?

BTW, I used my home address and I got my card like 2-4 days after the stipulated time frame.

wow, that's pretty fast.

Godmother:


Good tips, will save this somewhere. Thanks for this.
How much did you pay on average for each of the books you wrote?

on fiverr I paid an average of 20$ per book and the first time I started I published 20books then after earning money from the books and making nice profits I now took out of my earnings and used it to pay for another 20books to be written,I continued the cycle until I had more than 100 books....to make money from amazon you just have to think out of the box...

That's about 4k per book. Does it include the book cover too?
Which means u spent about 80k for the first 20 books.
That's some serious belief and determination you have in KDP platform.
Anyways I'd rather write my books myself and I'm good with graphics too.
I really can't see myself coughing out thousands right now
I might try to get one or two written sha, just to compare, but that will be much later.
Thanks once again for these tips. I will add them to the ones I have written in my kindle jotter

I call it the how to's niches.....how to do this how to do that,books that are simply informative,not everyone is interested in reading novels,some just want to read books that will add to their knowledge...

Wakacome,
Thanks for the insight. I truly appreciate your kind gesture.

I actually have about 7 books, though only a few of those are selling. Will look into the ones not selling and do some editing

For real !
*doing headflips and dancing shoki* Most of them are not up to sha but lemme check the ones that are. Brb

ferhyntorlah:

100 Whoa! Like how much do you earn from them, if you don't mind me asking. I really need some motivation.

I stumbled on this tread yesterday. Got an account today. Someone should please help me provide answers to these questions. 1. Are they going to issue check for royalties earned from all the different marketplaces or the money will be totalled in one single check monthly? 2. Can I cash the check from any bank in Nigeria provided I have domi account with the bank or I have to specify? 3. Don't they accept Payoneer option?

That's just an estimate jor. It's not up to that sef. Please don't get all carried away.

Sales are not much. Remember Kindle books are seasonal; once their time have passed, sales will be occasional.

I'm sorry but I had to laugh when I read your comment. It truly shows you are a newbie.

Check? Nope! You don't need it. EFT - electronic fund transfer via Payoneer is the best option provided your money is up to $10, which is the minimum payout amount for EFT. If it's less, you will have to wait till it accumulates to $10.

You will be paid royalties from each market provided it is up to $10.

Thanks for your response. Yes i'm a newbie. I have a Payoneer card. I saw the EFT option but the info requested does not tally with that of the card. They want a bank name with account no at the bottom of the check. Is it possible to change my payment option? Pls guide me.

Estimate or not it means you have up to 80 books at least
And I was feeling cool I have started and have 7.
When did you start? How many books do you write per week?
Hope I'm not asking too many questions, I'm just so inspired by you right now

Cool down babes. Maybe my estimate was on the high side. I apologise for that because I think it's giving you and some the wrong impression.

When I started, I used to upload 2 books per week but later took a break when the results wasn't too impressive. When I got motivated, I resumed.

I should have more books if I really really took it SERIOUS!

Mr, you are getting me really confused. Let me walk you through the process:
1. Login to kdp.amazon.com
2. At the top right hand side of the page, click on your account.
3. Scroll down to "Your Royalty Payments."
4. Click on "Edit".
5. A pop up page: "Edit Bank Account Information" opens
6. Do the following:
a. Choose US as bank location.
b. Enter your account name as it appears on Payoneer.
c. Choose "Checking" as account type.
d. Enter your Account number.
e. Enter your Routing number.
f. Enter your Bank name
g. Then save. That's all.

To get your payment information, login to your Payoneer account. Click on "Receive" then "US Payment Service." You'll find your US Payment Service Information there.

I'm not a financial expert but the little I know about banking is: once account number and routing number are required, that's an EFT transaction - direct bank deposit.

Routing Number: Set of numbers associated with a checking, savings or other bank account that associates a financial institution with the account. This number is used to determine where to route funds to or from. Any individuals seeking direct deposit from a company will typically have to provide a routing and account number.
