Is it possible to keep royalty revenue from my book or course sales in the Leanpub platform for a while? How can I save up my unpaid royalties to get Leanpub AI Services or advertising spots?

Someone on our Authors Forum asked us a question like this:

Hi! As a Leanpub author, if - for some reason - I decide to wait more (than those 60 days) to receive my royalties, is it possible to keep my money in the platform? Does Leanpub have some “expiration period” or even a “limit day” to effectively withdraw my funds? Thanks!

If you want to delay receiving your Leanpub royalties for some reason, or if you want to save up your royalties to use them to get Leanpub AI Services or advertising spots, you can achieve this by setting a higher "Minimum Royalty Payout Amount" amount on your "Payment Settings" page here:

If you are receiving payments using Wise (recommended!), then you'll want to make the number higher for the Wise "Minimum Royalty Payout Amount":

If you are receiving payments using PayPal, then you'll want to make the number higher for the PayPal "Minimum Royalty Payout Amount":

When you've selected your new "Minimum Royalty Payout Amount", click the "Save Royalty Settings" button at the bottom of the page:

OK, that's it!
