So when you join a network it can take some time for your earnings to be shown, this is due to a delay in Youtube sending this over to Freedom, which is normally on a month and a half delay. This is why Freedom starts paying its members two months after they joined, but after that every month they are with the network, in line with their payment schedule which can be seen below : -
- January's monetized views are paid out at the end of March (Mar 31st)
