January was an exceptional good month and **February’s payout included the last week of January**.

Without the real numbers nobody will be able to help you. “multiple TB’s of data in/exgress” doesn’t mean anything as ingress is not paid. In what month is your node for each satellite? How many TB\*h did your node store? How much egress bandwith did it use?

You can use the earnings calculator [https://forum.storj.io/t/earnings-calculator-update-2020-04-10-v8-2-0-price-and-month-estimate](https://forum.storj.io/t/earnings-calculator-update-2020-04-10-v8-2-0-price-and-month-estimate) to check. It’s quite spot on for me every month.
