Every paying site usually states clearly in the ToS what's the expected delay for payments. On the other hand, if the site has a forum, check the payment proof section (if there is one) to see when was the last entry. Also check if there are any complaints about long delays for the payments or even unpaid members. You could also search the web to get a better picture if you're not convinced by what you see on the forum.
But, if only a few days passed, don't panic, unless they say they pay instantly, in which case you should contact them.

Hi Riyauro, that depends on the human behind the transaction.
Even when the program tells you that the money has been transferred, there must always be a human behind to handle the transaction.
If the person is prompt in reading message, and does everything immeediately, you will see the money in your paypal account immediately.

as far I as I know transfers of money to paypal are instant, but it varies per site. It really depends on how the cashouts work on your site so I can't really give you a straight answer but one thing is for sure, once they release the payments it would be credited into your paypal instantly. Just wait maybe the admins have'nt released the payments yet, but you can always contact the admin and as long as it is a legit site then they will pay. I might want to try this writing site is it called iwrite? what are theyre compensation packages are they revenue type or they solid cash per article you give? I dont really like "pay per view" types of writing sites.

Oh another thing, I just looked into their FAQ and they said that they pay in 1 of 4 time periods which are every 2 weeks, Every month on the 5th, Every month on the 25th, and also weekly which are sent every Tuesdays. So that answers your question

yeah it is true, i used to change when my date came closer because I did not want payment in small amounts. Because i was wanted to buy something and when i have small small payment. I use the money. So to avoid me using the money I used to change the dates of payment. Hope you got it. I will check again now. I think i should have got it by now. Thank you for sharing realbusinesswithyou. it was nice to get your feedback.

Sometimes it takes a few hours before the money shows up in PayPal. You say that the writing site shows payment to PayPal. You should be getting a notification from PayPal very soon. I will be interested in what happens. let us know.
I do not think that you have anything to worry about.

I am very new in online earning. So i have no idea how long does it takes for money to be transfered from the site to paypal. But since it is electronic transfer it should be faster as in within 1 day since your earning in the site has been changed to $0.00.

Depends on the site. Some sites manually check each withdrawals before they transfer it to your paypal but if they don't check them, it would be instant.

$77 is a lot of $$. if it is a legit site don worry for 2weeks. mostly they took 2 weeks maximum length of time. if they don pay you after a month ,then you should start finding way to communicate with site admin or complain at respective forum . i think website that have paypal as their payment processes should be a legit site
