For interpreters🗓️ Your Work
Read your earnings reports
Six reports on your Earnings page show what you are owed, your true hourly rate, income trends, travel, cancellations, and your year in review.
Your total earnings tell you how much. The reports underneath tell you how you are doing. They cover every agency you work with plus your freelance work in one place, they follow whatever date range you pick at the top of the page, and you can export the lot to CSV or PDF.
Step by step
- 1Open "Earnings" in the sidebar and choose a date range at the top; every report below follows it.
- 2Read "Payout status" first if you are chasing money: it splits what you have actually been paid from what is still owed, so you can see who is behind.
- 3"What you really earn per hour" divides your pay by the time the work really took, including travel. It is usually lower than your posted rate, and that gap is the point of the report.
- 4"Income over time" charts you month by month, with agency work and freelance work side by side.
- 5"Travel & mileage" shows how much of your time went to the road and how much of that was paid.
- 6"Cancellations & no-shows" shows what fell through and what it still paid you.
- 7"Year in review" sums up a whole year on one card; if you have worked more than one year, pick the year from the card.
- 8Use the CSV or PDF buttons at the top of the page to export the reports for the range you picked.
Tips
- Jobs with no rate on file are left out of the hourly-rate math rather than counted as $0, because a missing rate is unknown pay, not free work. Ask the agency to set your rate and the job joins the average.
- The export is aggregate totals only. It carries no consumer names and no appointment details, so it is safe to hand to an accountant or a lender.
- Agency work is counted on the dates you were scheduled to work. Freelance jobs are counted once you complete them.
- Travel earnings are included in your freelance totals, so an outside job that paid mileage shows its full value.
- These reports are yours alone. Agencies cannot see them, and they never include another interpreter's numbers.
