WHERE MEDIA REVENUE LEAKS

The audience is global. The payment flow usually is not.

Media revenue is thousands of small decisions a month, made on a phone, in dozens of markets. These are the three places those decisions stop being revenue.

  1. The subscriber you never got

    A viewer arrives ready to pay and finds a checkout built for somewhere else — the wrong methods, the wrong currency, a price that reads as foreign.

    • The wallet or bank transfer that market actually uses is missing
    • One currency is quoted to every country
    • A card-only page underperforms wherever cards are not the default
  2. A dispute takes the money, then the record

    Once a chargeback is filed the funds are pulled back, a fee lands on top and the ratio moves the wrong way — and the team usually hears about it from the notice.

    • Disputes surface after filing, once the window to act has closed
    • Every filing carries a fee and pushes the chargeback ratio up
    • Representment means pulling records and assembling evidence by hand
  3. The money has to go out again

    Collecting is only half of it. Creators, studios and rights holders are waiting to be paid — in their own countries, into the accounts and wallets they actually use.

    • Recipients are spread across countries with different banking norms
    • International wires are slow, costly and opaque to the recipient
    • Nobody can tell where a given payout is right now
