Pay for one piece of work to get done.

What funding does

• It makes the wage payable

  Your payment goes to the wallet that pays workers. The posted wage becomes payable to whoever claims this packet and whose proof is approved at review.

• It does not pay anyone yet

  No worker is paid on the day you fund. Payment happens after proof is submitted and approved, and it is recorded as a receipt anyone can read.

• It does not reserve the packet for you

  Funding never changes who may claim the work, what they are paid, or what proof they owe. Anyone qualified can still take it.

• It buys nothing else

  It is not a carbon retirement, not a credit, not a token, and not a claim on us. If you want a retirement certificate, that is a different thing on a different page.

• It is a purchase and a vote at once

  Either you want this exact place cared for, or you want the world to hold more work like it. The money does the same job either way.

If nobody claims it, or the proof is rejected

This is the honest part. Read it before you pay, whichever door you use.

Four things can happen to money you hand over for work somebody else will do, and each one needs a written answer you can read before you pay, not after:

• Nobody claims it, or the packet expires

  You are owed either the work or your money back. The refund and expiry terms are not written yet.

• A worker submits proof and it is rejected

  The wage is not paid. What happens to your money in that case is not written yet.

• Who decides whether the proof passed

  Today that is us, and we would also be the party holding your money. Declared proof rules, self-verifying packets and published receipts exist so the decision can point at evidence, but the rule itself is not written down as something you could appeal to.

• Disputes and chargebacks

  A card dispute can arrive months later, possibly after a worker has already been paid for approved proof. That policy is not written yet either.

We would rather say this out loud. Both doors below carry the same four questions; until the missing terms are written, paying here means making this wage payable with those questions open, and [email protected] answers for any of them.

The checklist we hold the money rails to

This is the working checklist, kept beside the code it governs and reviewed with every change to the money rails. The full checklist is what you see below; nothing is held back on another page. It is an engineering and policy checklist, not legal advice.

Where it stands today: the card door is open. Item 2 is how the rail is built: worker payouts go processor to worker, and money owed to a worker is never parked with us. Item 4 is what declared proof rules and self-verifying packets exist for. Items 1 and 3, the refund, expiry, and dispute terms, are not written yet, and item 6 has not happened. Until they exist, a payment here funds the wage with those questions open. That is the plain state of it.

1. 1

   Refund and expiry terms

   Written, and shown at checkout before you pay: what happens if the packet is never claimed, expires, or the proof is rejected.

2. 2

   Where the money sits

   The aim is that we never hold money owed to someone else. Payout direct to the worker rather than custody by us, because custody is the shape that carries money transmission, escrow and reporting duties.

3. 3

   A dispute policy

   Including the timing hazard: proof can be approved and a worker paid before a chargeback window has closed.

4. 4

   An adjudication rule that is not just us

   Proof review has to point at declared evidence rather than at our own say so.

5. 5

   Worker payout tax posture

   At whatever volume triggers it.

6. 6

   Attorney review

   Of everything above, before any live card money moves.

The code is already built for this. Every money rail, card or wallet or anything added later, passes through one funding write, so the rules are enforced once rather than reinvented per provider: the amount is always the board’s wage and never a number sent by a browser, a packet is marked funded only by a verified payment confirmation, one packet can be funded once, and if money arrives and the board refuses the stamp it raises a loud operator alert rather than being quietly kept.

Two ways to pay

Same packet, same worker, same proof rules, same receipt. Only the money ingress differs. Both doors show their real state below, read live from this host.

The boundary

This page does not dispatch labor, choose a worker, or certify an outcome. Work completion, payment, and a retirement certificate are three different things and this page only touches the second. Read Terms and Receipts before you decide.
