It is also to be noted that the Fortnite owner, Epic Games, was not paying their creators for some time now for their hard work and creativity due to several issues with Apple. Notably, there was a recent trial held for the matter, in which Epic Games won the argument in court, thus they started giving out payments.

One of the major reasons that can be speculated for why Epic Games was not able to pay their creators under the Support-A-Creator program can be the Apple vs Epic Games court battle. This is happening because Epic Games had to face some legal issues regarding direct payment using Apple’s payout system.
