Sign Up Step By Step

Before you start publishing content to the site you might want to know some information about how you can get paid and the submission process. When you submit content to the AC website, they send it for review which can take up to two weeks. The review process checks your content against the websites submission criteria and will either mark it as:

Submitted - This means the website has received your submission but it has not yet been published. During this phase it’s not too late to make changes. To do so click the ‘e’ icon next to the left of the articles headline on the My Content tab headline on the My Content tab.

Processing - This means your content has been reviewed, an offer has been sent and is waiting for approval by you. At this stage you may choose to accept the offer or decline. If you decide to decline the offer or if it was declined by AC you must delete it from the site if you wish to try again.

Incomplete - You will see the incomplete notice if you don’t make it all the way through the submission process. You can take up where you left off by clicking the ‘e’ icon next to the left of the headline from the My Content tab and finish the steps for completion at a later time.

Once you’re content has been reviewed and AC has marked your content as ‘Processing’ you will receive an offer. If you decide to accept the offer, AC sends you a verification email message asking you to confirm your PayPal email address. Upon confirmation the AC website sends your payment via PayPal within three business days.

Note: Associated Content will set your account to auto-confirm your PayPal email address if you click on the My Content tab, Payment Information and Confirmation and then click ‘Turn Auto Confirm On.’
