Mira · Creator CR-104

Two periods. Two different questions.

Mira is creating in September while your team prepares her August payout. Keep each cycle's amount and status together.

August · Closed and approved

What is ready for payout review?

Subscriptions
USD 420
Advertising
USD 180
Adjustment
− USD 20

Approved by your product · AUG-CR-104

USD 580

Pass this amount, creator ID and period reference to Gruv.

September · Still open

What is Mira earning now?

New subscriptions and advertising activity belong to September. Your product continues to calculate this period as activity and adjustments arrive.

September earnings stay outside the August USD 580 payout.

What if August changes later?

Your earnings team records the adjustment under your product’s rules and retains the original August reference. It approves any resulting payable separately, so support can explain the change without silently replacing the August record.

August payout · AUG-CR-104

Approved earnings are the start.

USD 580 is the amount your product approved. The payout still has its own review, processing and result.

When Mira asks about August, support follows AUG-CR-104. The answer comes from that payment record, even while September earnings continue to change.

Confirm the beneficiary and required checks before processing. An approved cycle does not mean the money has arrived.

Give every team the same reference.

Your product owns the earnings calculation. Connect its creator and period IDs to the payout item so support and finance follow the same cycle.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does Gruv calculate creator earnings?+
Your product calculates creator earnings, eligibility, adjustments and payout minimums. Pass its approved creator amount into Gruv with the creator and earning-period references attached.
Why keep earning periods separate?+
A creator can be earning in September while an August payout is still being reviewed. Keep the closed cycle’s approved amount distinct from the current cycle so product, support and finance explain the same record.
What goes into a creator payout row?+
Provide a beneficiary, amount and currency. Add creator ID, earning period and source references as the external reference or metadata so your teams can match the payout to approved earnings.
Can our product show creators their payout status?+
Connect your product’s creator and period references to the payout item. Agree which states and explanations to display, and confirm the API or status-update integration for your setup. An approved earning amount and a completed payment must remain distinct.
What if an adjustment arrives after the cycle closes?+
Record the change in the earnings system that owns the calculation, following your product’s adjustment rules. Keep the original earning-period reference and pass the next approved amount into the payout workflow. A completed payment is not automatically reversed.
