At the bottom of the Earnings Summary page under Gross Earnings it says (click here for your actual payment history) : it will tell you there.

$2.46 is not equal to 30% of $107.43.

I expect it to be a delay in updating the earnings for the new start of the month. It takes about a day for the earnings counter to reset to $0 at the start of the new month. So the earnings are added to the previous month's earnings balance before the reset. Once the previous months earnings are calculated, they will disappear from your balance, only leaving the earnings for the current month.

I assume your earnings at the end of January 31st were $104.97 and you made $2.46 on the first day of February. You can see that when clicking this link

Only income from US buyers is taxed, so taxes could be the explanation.
I've had times when my US income was less then 10% of the total...

The 30% (or whatever your tax treaty agreement is) is withheld only from the us sales. So it is not 30% of all your earnings but 30% on your US earnings. So looks like you had for around $9 US sales in last month.

Fair point, I didnt know that.

If that is the case, click this link to see your US / NON US split earnings and you can see exactly how much you earned from US source
