Trendsource/MSI paying three times this month?

November 08, 2016 04:15AM
Did Trendsource/MSI put out something about paying three times this month? I received payment on the 3rd of the month and again today on the 7th for a few shops completed in between and over the weekend. I actually received payment today for shops I performed yesterday. I checked over my agreements and nothing is mentioned about fast pay. I was shocked and confused today to see a credit to my account and when I was inputting shops this afternoon, I noticed I was paid for yesterdays shops already. Anyone else have this occur? Is this a frequent occurrence when the 5th is on a weekend? YAY for fast money, but had I not been doing the monthly/weekly tasks and bills today, I would have let this slip through and been even more confused come payday.

edited to fix dates.

It depends on the client. The steakhouse shops are always paid a few days after you complete them. Also, it seems since they launched the new website the payments have not all been on the 5th and 20th. There has been a lot more variance.

I was paid today for a lemonade shop I did on Monday.

Perhaps they pay for shops completed before the 5th, but after payment. For instance, I was paid on the 3rd, and I performed shops on the 4th and 5th. I was then paid for them on the 7th. I haven't received any other payments and I've performed half a dozen shops this week for the same client. Pretty exciting to get an extra quick payment though. I'll have to remember to keep a check around the payment dates and see if I spot a pattern. I've done 112 shops for this same client and it's the first time I've noticed this early pay business. smiling smiley

The reps I met at the IMSC conference this week from that company were so nice.

They paid me early as well...I think it a holiday thing, not going forward each month.

The same thing happened to me. I had only been doing jobs with them since 10/31 and been paid twice. I was paid on the 4th I was hoping that after the jobs were verified and entered that I would be paid in the future. Let me know if you find an answer. They seemed to be the fastest paying company.
