Watched ads but my BAT is 0.00 on Android

Briefly describe your issue:

I have been using brave rewards for a few days. It showed me 22 ads but still my BAT is 0.00

What Operating System and Brave version are you using? (Menu --> Help --> About Brave)

Android, 1.82.170

Who is your verified custodian or self-custody? (Uphold/Gemini/bitFlyer/Solana)

Solana

Are you in a supported region? (see here for list of supported regions)

Yes . I am using it from Bangladesh.

@Rezve this is normal and expected behavior. If you take a look at your Rewards menu it will show you that the next payout date is the 8th. We get paid once per month. You won’t see an immediate increase.

What ads we see in September get paid in October. And while the payout date is the 8th, it can sometimes come in sooner or later. On rare occasions it can take weeks to arrive, though usually is within a few days.

@Rezve also, if you’re new enough and not aware, payouts aren’t going to be much. Ad prices vary but the overall average is 0.005 BAT for the ads we are paid to see.

You’ll notice phrasing of “for the ads we are paid to see.” This is because any ads about Brave pay 0 BAT. For example, the one below for Brave Ads Self-Serve Program. It pays 0 BAT, we get nothing.

But like this one below is the 0.005 BAT as I mentioned:

So if you do the math, the 22 ads:

Would be 22*0.005 = 0.11 BAT

BAT is around $0.15 USD lately. So multiply $0.15*0.11 = $0.0165 USD is what you earned from that. So you have earned around a penny.

I’m not saying that to be negative but I guess just to give you realistic expectations. The value could always increase if BAT prices go up. But otherwise, you’re just looking at maybe around 1 BAT per month, give or take. Some earn less and some up to 2-3 BAT depending on country and ads availability. But compared to the $5 per month we used to get, it’s a big decrease. For the past few months, I have only earned about 2.25 BAT each month which is like $0.34

And it’s not like I see very few. I’m currently at 459.
