My Freedom Dashboard isn't showing my payments?

The freedom! dashboard updates once a month, usually in the second half of the month for last month's earnings, so if you don't see a months payments showing up it hasn't been added to our dashboard yet. The reason for this is to guarantee we pay all of our partners all that they are owed!


How about taxes in USA?

Because Freedom! is a Hong Kong based company, the law does not require us to submit tax forms on your behalf. If you are in the USA, please refer to your local government office to learn more about your tax responsabilities.


What about VAT?

Google Ireland does not pay you. Freedom! does, which is a Hong Kong company.
 
There is no VAT for a Hong Kong company to pay, so you can ignore that when you do your taxes in your country.
