I always get paid with a check dated the first day of the month. It then has to make its way through the mail to me. Your comment made me look to see if there are any other options, and I saw that there is now a PayPal option available, so I switched. Their login page says that PayPal payments are processed on the first day of the month, and knowing how PayPal operates, I would expect a slight delay before the payment is posted there and the money is available. Basically, PayPal makes sure that they have their money before they let you have your money.
