Okay! So the reason your balance is still 0 is that BAT earned from seeing Ads are paid out once a month. When you do see an ad, the BAT earned goes into a “pending balance” which is then paid to the user the first week of each month. Typically around the 5th. There can be delays so if you don’t see your BAT the first hour of the 5th, no need to panic. Give it time.  
Since you’ve just started using Brave you have not gone through payout week, if it comes to payouts in Feb and you don’t receive your BAT, let us know so we can investigate.
