Negative Balances

Occasionally, it is possible to have negative balances in your account. A few reasons you might have a negative balance charge:

  • You purchased professional services like artwork or video fixes from Filmhub to be billed against future earnings
  • Your initial Filmhub deal includes recoupable expenses, which must be earned back before you can receive earnings directly
  • You submitted a Title Update or Redelivery request to be billed against future earnings

You must have a positive balance before you can Transfer.
