Action Needed: Get Paid Faster!

Hello,

As part of our ongoing efforts to improve the Kindle Direct Publishing (KDP) program, we're changing the default payment method in your country to Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) in September of this year. Checks will no longer be offered as a payment method.

EFT payments are paperless, secure, and fast. This environmentally friendly method deposits royalties directly into your bank account, with no minimum payment threshold. This means you will be paid electronically in full 60 days after the end of every month for sales within that month. Instead of waiting up to three weeks for your check to arrive, EFT payments should appear in your bank account within five days after the end of the month.

Please sign up before May 15th to receive your next payment via EFT. Switch by adding the following banking details to your KDP account:

1. Log in: https://kdp.amazon.com
2. Click "(Your Name's) Account" at the top
3. Under "Your Royalty Payments," click "Add a bank account"
4. Select your country of residence and click "OK"
5. Enter your bank account information according to your country requirements and click "Done"
6. Click the plus sign next to the marketplace you want to update, and change the "Pay my royalties via" option from check to EFT
7. Select your preferred currency and click "Add bank account" to add your bank account to each marketplace you update
8. Click "Save"
