@Soraz @nasch007 as pointed out, I have a bit of a topic open at Saoiray's Discussion about Rewards payout amounts which kind of touches on it.
BAT per ad has been the same for many years. Part of the big issue lately is that the price of BAT is down pretty significantly, so we’re see seeing as much of a dollar value.
Of course, part of the bigger dilemma is how Brave stopped paying for House Ads. This means if it’s advertising Brave products or services, we get 0.00 BAT. And of all the ads we see, this can be a pretty significant number. For example, screenshot of my ads history page just now:
There are 7 ads that it accounted for. 5 of the 7 were House Ads.
It’s not always that bad though, like if I go to an earlier time we can see where I don’t even notice a House Ad at all:
Key thing is
We used to get paid for every single ad seen. Then back in November we stopped getting paid for Brave’s ads and only get paid for the ads Brave is paid to show. So of the 600-1,000 ads or so we might see in a month, we’re only going to be paid for a portion of those. Obviously this means less BAT.
Your math is wrong there. I mean, payouts seem to be starting out. Mine landed way earlier than normal. I had around 1,000 ads, give or take.
It all comes down to what ad campaigns are available in your area and what you’re seeing. I kind of touch on the math in the prior link, but circled back around on other posts like Low price reward - #2 by Saoiray as well if you want to take a look.
