Platforms report in several currencies
Depending on the country and the service, each line of a report can arrive in a different currency.
UXEM consolidates in dollars
UXEM converts each line to a single currency, the US dollar (USD), using the exchange rate applicable to that report.
Your balance and your payouts are expressed in USD.
Consequences
- Because the conversion is done per report, the same number of streams in the same country can yield a slightly different amount from one period to another if the exchange rate moved.
- Conversion rounding creates small differences compared with what a platform's dashboard shows.
