EDIT3: THIS POST IS NOW OUTDATED ♥ I will no longer answer questions on this post.
EDIT2: GUUUUYS, PLEEEEEEEASE read through the other comments. I´m 99% sure that your question has been asked AND ANSWERED before. EDIT: Not EVERYONE has been given this future yet it seems.
It can take up to 14 days for your money to end up in paypal.
I don´t know if many people know about this or even how to do it..~♥
THAT´S WHY IM GOING TO TELL YOU!
How to take point commissions and still earn REAL FRESH MONEY!
What you need:
Be a Premium Member BETA TESTER
Have a Paypal
That easy!
However if you are going to do this dA takes a part of the money you earn. Around 20 Points on Every 80 points [I think]
Which makes you earn only 60 points even if you sell for 80.
That´s why I suggest you think that 1 Dollar = 100 points
Instead of 80, that way you won´t lose anything on it. *w* ~
How to do it!
You need to upload your picture to Sta.sh
Then Click on the Uploaded picture in your Sta.sh.
It should look something like this.
Then you click on the select CATEGORY
It is above the description
Then you should end up HERE
SCROLL DOWN
Until you come to THIS
Here you see down to the left "Generate earnings"
And beneath "Sell downloads as premium content"
Select THAT BOX
And it will look like this!
Here you decide how much to sell your picture for.
As I said dA "takes" 20 points/ 0.20 $ so I suggest to think that 1 $= 100
If you are selling a piece that is a commission for example I suggest that you crop the picture to the extreme or something until the person has Bought it!
OR make a picture beforehand that says "PAY FOR COMMISSIONS HERE"
You can always change how much it should cost, so you can change it for every commissioner
That way the Da points come to use again for real purpose!
HOWEVER
You cannot withdraw your money to PayPal until you have earned at least 5 $
How do I see my earnings?
SIMPLE!
You go to this box. And down to the right you can see "MY EARNINGS"
Click there!
AND.......... VOILA!
HOPE YOU FIND THIS USEFUL GUYS!
I just figured this out as well, I hope I haven´t taken anything wrong or explained it wrong!
If so please correct me!
A-and I´m not good with HTML stuff, so sorry if the pictures are small TAT ~♥
HAVE A LOVELY DAY

I cant understand english very well but I think here is the answer help.deviantart.com/372/

Is there a way to convert points to real money without being a premium member???
👍: 0 ⏩: 3
Well there is, othere are 2 and one way you would need a second account

But this is not only for premium members

i've tried searching for a way and I guess not ; _ ;
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Um, is that work only on Beta Tester?? Is is work only with Premium Member??
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
Yes. It's actually mathematically correct that a point has near value to a penny of real money, because you can buy almost 500 points for five bucks. It's like comparing currencies (such as dollars to pesos/yen/pounds/what have you).

I know this is a very old post but how do you get such a kawaii skin for this journal >.<
Sorry if I'm asking a topic that is completely off topic but I'm new to DA and I'm trying to figure things out ;_;

You would need premium membership for custom journal skins.

Thank you for letting me know ^^

I know this journal is old and not valid but I'm just putting this out there for those that want to know
Where 'dA takes 20 points for every 80 points' was mentioned, well they don't take only 20 pts. They take 20% royalty of the original amounts (so if you sell something for 100 points /$1, you only get 80 points /$.80)
Here's a converter
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
80 points is 1$ though.
But as dA take 20 points for every 80 points/1$. You lose 20 points.
Hence why I added 20 points to make up for it.
So 100 points counts as 1$ instead.

BIG SCAM people are better off paying other deviants directly via paypal if they want to make a donation or buy art.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Totally agree. Plus the added fact that you also need to be a premium member to do that makes it even more disgusting.

If someone wants to buy a commission from someone who takes money, but they don't have paypal, they can use that method, at least.

does someone know if when i sell prints of i can get da points instead of money
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yes you can. Once your print is bought and all the transfer are done,
you go to your balance and you'll see the number of points/money you have.
Then you can just covert them into points instead to your credit/paypal/whatever.

I was looking up to see if it were possible to convert points into money. Now I not only know it is possible, but also how I can do it! Thanks for this very helpful journal! ^u^

well, that is what adoptables do .. 
selling digital goods
if you want to earn more online .. do adoptables

I've noticed that those are kind of popular these days. I might try it! Thanks!

Can i ask? Does "give point" and "donate point" able to convert to cash?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Needs to be through a commission widget or the download option.
Donations or give points can´t usually be converted to real money. ♥
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
wait so do you have to have Premium membership to do this? O3O
Sorry if im stupid ;A;
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
This tutorial is 2 years old. IT is no longer valid ;;;
So I don´t know ♥
But most certainly. Yes you need premium ;v;

oh I'm sowwy ;3; My english isn't the best...
aww... thats sucks... I would have really hoped that I could have had my points transverred to money ;w;

I know you've said this post is outdated - but I honestly can't figure out anything on my question.
I recently changed Paypal accounts (as I'm an adult now, I not longer use my grandfathers), and I would like my new one to be linked to my dA when I withdraw funds to Paypal.
Is there ANY way to change my email of recipients on dA for my new Paypal?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
They have changed a lot now so I actually don´t know!
You have to ask the dA staff ;;; ♥
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Do you know who I would contact on the dA staff?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
What can I do if my friend wants to commission me If I gave them a ton of points? Will DA automatically refund them back even if it is a legitimate commission? This is frustrating because it has happened before.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
If it is legitimate it is allowed however dA cannot know that and might take it as you trying to get money of your own points.
qnq;;
As long as you upload the commissions and the like as a "proof" that you actually did something in return they might be more accepting..
But try to stay on the safe side ;;///

Aww darn, well hopefully they don't suspend my account for this :/.
Thanks for replying <3

OMG! Thank you very much!!!! >.< And here I though that I could sell stuff only for $$ while it's much safer to take points and withdraw them to paypal >.<

I also did notice you said you wouldnt awnswer anymore questions, but this is urgent.
