When emails get no reply for two weeks: switch channel and copy a second contact.
“The longer and softer you make it the more it reads like you think you're being unreasonable for wanting to get paid.” This one is short and direct, with no “sorry to bother you”.
If two emails got nothing, try a different person and a different channel, then confirm in writing.
