This page is for anyone who wants to fund one job. The worker is paid after their proof passes review, never on the day you fund. The receipt is public either way.
Choose how to pay What happens if it is not done
Every number reads live from the board; a dash means no answer, not zero.
This page funds one job at a time. Open a job on the board and press Fund this job under its pay, or add the job’s id to this address, like fund.html?work=JOB_ID.
Nothing is claimed here until the board answers. Funding never changes who may claim this work.
Its own page appears here once the board answers.
It makes the pay payable
Your payment goes to Vealth’s operational wallet, the one that pays workers, and is held there until accepted work is paid or the money is refunded. It is not in escrow, which means no outside party holds it. The posted pay becomes payable to whoever claims this job and whose proof is approved at review.
It does not pay anyone yet
Payment happens after proof is submitted and approved, and it is recorded as a receipt anyone can read.
It does not reserve it for you
Funding never changes who may claim the work, what they are paid, or what proof they owe.
It buys nothing else
Not a carbon retirement, not a work credit, not a token, not a claim on us.
A vote is a free signal of demand. A pledge is a signed promise that moves no money. Neither is funding: money moves only when you fund a job.
Read this before you pay, whichever door you use.
Vote for work, or fund it. If you funded a job and nobody has claimed it, you can have your money back. The rule is stated in advance, not improvised afterwards. Unclaimed means your money is yours. Claimed means the work is theirs to finish. A claim that lapses puts the job back on the board. Where that rule turns out to be wrong in practice, it gets rewritten in public, here.
Four things can happen to your money. Each one has its answer, or says plainly that it has none yet:
Nobody claims it, or it expires
Answered Before anyone claims the job, you can ask for your money back. If nobody completes it within 30 days of funding, a refund to the paying wallet is owed. Refunds are sent by hand today. While a worker holds a claim, you cannot ask for it back; a claim with no proof sent lapses after 24 hours. A person went to the place on the strength of your funding. Money that can vanish mid-work makes every claim worthless.
How a return happens today: by hand, not by a button. Email [email protected] with the job’s link and it goes back to the wallet that paid. There is no self-serve refund control yet, and we would rather say that than imply one exists.
Proof is submitted and rejected
Answered Nothing is paid to the worker, who may fix the proof and send it again, free. A refused proof is not a finished job, so if no proof is accepted within 30 days of funding, the rule above applies and your money is owed back.
Who decides whether it passed
Us, today A person accepts every proof, and the worker never approves their own. Today, on the jobs Vealth wrote from its own library, that person is Vealth: no outside reviewer is named yet. A few early five-cent digital jobs, before 20 September 2026, were approved by their written check alone, and their receipts say so. Declared proof rules and published receipts let the decision point at evidence, but the rule itself is not written down as something you could appeal to. Your funding payment goes to Vealth’s operational wallet, the one that pays workers, and is held there, not in escrow, until accepted work is paid or the money is refunded.
Disputes and reversed payments
Not written There is no written policy for this yet. Card funding is closed today, so it matters only if cards open. A card dispute, called a chargeback, is when a bank takes a payment back. It can arrive months later, possibly after a worker has already been paid for approved proof.
We would rather say this out loud. Every way of paying carries the same four questions, and [email protected] answers for any of them.
Six promises, each with its true state. Kept beside the code it governs, reviewed with every change to the money rails. Engineering and policy, not legal advice.
1Refund and expiry
Written 2026-08-06 This rule is written down. Before anyone claims the job, you can ask for your money back. If nobody completes it within 30 days of funding, a refund to the paying wallet is owed. Refunds are sent by hand today. Still to build: a self-serve control, so it is not an email.
2Where the money sits
Held by us Your funding payment goes to Vealth’s operational wallet, the one that pays workers, and is held there, not in escrow, until accepted work is paid or the money is refunded.
3A dispute policy
Not written No dispute policy exists yet. That includes the timing hazard: proof can be approved and a worker paid before a bank’s window to reverse a card payment has closed.
4A decision that is not just ours
Partly built Part of this exists. Declared proof rules and self-verifying jobs point the decision at evidence. The rule you could appeal to is not written yet.
5Tax treatment of worker payouts
Not yet Not done yet. It will be handled at whatever volume triggers it.
6Attorney review
Not yet No lawyer has reviewed the above yet. Review comes before card funding opens or any other way of paying is added.
Until promises 3 and 6 exist, a payment here funds the worker’s pay with those questions open. That is the plain state of it.
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 posted pay, never a number sent by a browser. A job is marked funded only by a verified payment confirmation, and one job can be funded once. If money arrives and the board refuses the stamp, it raises a loud operator alert rather than being quietly kept.
Today the only way to pay is USDC, a digital dollar, on the Base network, from your own wallet, in one signed payment, from one cent. Card funding is closed, and Vealth itself takes no invoice, purchase order or bank transfer yet. An organization that pays from a budget or a purchase order can hire EcoWealth Safety, our paid practice, to scope and run the work as a quoted service, with its own fee stated apart from the worker’s pay. Your funding payment goes to Vealth’s operational wallet, the one that pays workers (see it on BaseScan), and is held there, not in escrow, until accepted work is paid or the money is refunded. Each door below shows its real state, read live from this host.
Card funding is closed, so this door cannot take a payment. If it opens, it will be Stripe’s own checkout page, and we will never see your card number.
Checking whether this door is open…
Check what this site can and cannot prove before paying.
Voting is free, takes one signature, and records real demand for exactly this job so it rises and gets funded. The wallet door states what it can accept for this job right now.
Nothing is funded when you press this. It opens a payment page. The job is marked funded only after the payment completes and Stripe’s signed confirmation reaches us, which is a separate step your browser cannot perform or fake.
For anyone who wants proof and speed: settled by an x402 payment, a standard way to pay a web service in dollars. This is the door an AI agent uses, and it is the same door a person can use by hand. Any amount helps: this door takes from one cent up to what the job still needs, and the board stamps it funded the moment the pay is covered.
Checking whether this door is open…
Check the payment and wallet boundaries before signing.
Same rule as the card door: the job is marked funded only after the payment is verified, never because a call was attempted.
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.
For your AI: connect vealth.net/mcp. It reads this job, quotes the funding door’s own price, and pays from your wallet only after showing you the amount.
