Batch allows you to pay multiple publishers with one combined payment. We send payments and remittance details to the publishers every Friday morning, plus the last business day of the month.

The Current Period Summary is the screen you see upon logging into your Batch portal and reflects invoices due by the end of the month and any available credits. To view the list of transactions for each publisher, click on the numbers in the table.
