The day before yesterday (3/29), I was paid for a late January shop. I am not expecting February for a while!

February shops are paid April 1st or a few days before or after.
They're having a paypal problem right now though, they said.
I did my first shop for NSS in February. Looks like I picked the best possible time to start working for them tongue sticking out smiley
Hopefully this is just a minor hiccup and they'll get it sorted out. I like pizza, so it seems like a natural partnership if they get their payment issues resolved.

I called support and they gave me the email address for the payroll person.
It (the email response) said, as I understood it, that that work done in February is paid in April.
Am I misunderstanding this?
If you did a shop February 29th they wouldn't be able to pay it early March because of the time to approve it and get it approved by the client, right?!
I could be wrong and someone correct me if I am. I did a shop in February and was expecting payment for it on 4/1/16. I would normally not be worried about a few days, but I believe based on what I've read here that NSS had payment delays last month too.

Their terms are if you choose payment as check, they send it out the first few days of the month. If you choose paypal it's something like two weeks later.
I received my check in the mail on Friday. It was for all of February's work.
If you chose Paypal, it will be a couple of more weeks until you see your moola.

Got mine on Friday, too.

I have done a few months of those for this MSC and havent had issues getting paid. This is out of the norm in my opinion smiling smiley

Thinking about changing to checks.. I was told Paypal "could" take 3 weeks after the checks go out
I did my first shop for them in February and I just received my check yesterday. It was dated March 22nd. Receiving a check 3 weeks after it's been issued is not good in my eyes. I don't really know them well except that I receive a lot of emails for a their pizza shops.
These payments are on time, exactly as described in the agreement we have with them.

The agreement we have with them states:
"Check payments will be sent within 5 business days of the last day of the month, following the month in which shops being paid for were conducted.
Example:
Shop conducted in January 2016. Check for said shop will be mailed between 2/29 and 3/5/16."

That means Feb shops should have been paid by check between 3/31 and 4/5. Today is 4/12. If I receive my check by the end of the week, then I'll consider it a slow but technically "on time" payment.
A poster above says a Jan shop was paid on 3/29 which seems outside the above time frame. Paypal payments seem to take somehow longer than waiting for a physical check to be mailed. I'm not sure I understand that, but it might be that the above poster was being paid by PayPal and not check. Either way, these payments seem at best like they're on the extreme end of the MSC's payment policy.

Completed pizza shops with them on 2/25. I added paypal info to my acct afterward. Still waiting. Should I expect it this week?

payroll says it should be by the 21st of this week

Do you know if that's for checks or PayPal?

Nope. I find the entire process to be painful. They never notify you that your report was approved. Nothing. You just sit and wait. Yes, it shows in your "payroll" history but it doesn't give you any indication on when payment will be made. Yes, I am aware of their time frames, thank you. You don't have to quote that again. But this is not brain surgery. You should be able to get a date that a check was actually mailed or cut. 3 weeks for a check to get mailed? Please. 3 more weeks for paypal? Seriously? What they are doing is taking full advantage of the float on this money to an extreme. Tomorrow is the 21st. We'll see. It's no wonder that they can't get these shops filled.
Still nothing in my Paypal for my February shops.
