Something wrong with my earnings?

Yes but you have to put into account that they host your video and don't limit the views or bandwith used.. Your account is free to create and build.

I still think they are taking advantage, they'd still profit from taking 20% of revenue, they host TV shows, they rent out films, they already make money from partners, adverts etc.

True.. But it is their site and their prerogative. Not much anyone can do about it. As of right now they are the biggest and best at what they offer.
 
That was quite a chunk


Yep they call it YouTube Tax. It's at least 45% of your earnings and then it's important to note that the figure it gives you in your analytics are estimates, meaning it could be high, could be low. Google also deduct earnings if they find invalid clicks (someone repeat refreshing etc or such low retention for that video it isn't considered a monetisable view)
 
First of all, remember you don't keep 100% of your total earnings.

You have to realise that YouTube take 45% of your total earnings as others as stated. So in your case, you stated 1.3k euro. So:

0.45 x 1300 = 585
1300-585= 715

Then take off your networks cut, Zoomin's default contract is 80% so:

0.3 x 715 = 143
715-143 = 572

Then I believe the remaining 42, goes towards taxes and transfer fees, I'd say it seems about right. ;)

If his screenshot is from YouTube, they don't factor in any network split or any transfer fees into their estimated totals as they have no idea what contract you might have with any given network.

I know they don't, that's why I based it on Zoomin's default contract 80% and removed YouTube's cut of 45%.

The estimated earnings (if they were from youtube) shouldn't have taken that into account. That should be the amount before Zoomin takes their cut, not after Zoomin takes their cut.
