  • This seems like a subset of this question: http://bitcoin.stackexchange.com/questions/9895/who-gets-bitcoin-transaction-fees – Nick ODell Apr 07 '15 at 06:42
  • @NickODell The selected answer says "The fee goes to the miner who mines the block that includes your transaction." So, the miner gets it right away, then. – Geremia Apr 07 '15 at 08:29

With every block the successful mining entity reaps all the included transaction's fees. So, in the case of solo mining, a miner gets paid transaction fees every time he finds a block, in the case of a mining pool a miner's payouts depend on the mining pool's policies.
