Tiers are assessed on a quarterly basis. The dates are as follows:
| Quarter | Period |
| Q1 | January 1st to March 31st |
| Q2 | April 1st to June 30th |
| Q3 | July 1st to September 30th |
| Q4 | October 1st to December 31st |
On the final day of each quarter, your model rank bracket and the number of days you were in that bracket will be recorded, and the number of qualifying uploads counted to determine which Tier you have earned. Your payouts for the following quarter will be calculated based on that Tier.
For example, the payout you will receive in May for April earnings will be calculated based on the Tier you earned in Q1.
