Guaranteed Contest Payouts

October 24, 2008

We are hard at work on automating the guaranteed contests and prepaid contests system that we recently blogged about. In the meantime we will be paying out designers on Tuesday mornings (Melbourne, Australia time), on a weekly basis.

Bear with us while we make this process seamless! If you are concerned about getting design files to the contest holder quickly, you can tick the “I have been paid” option in the Design Handover and provide the files immediately, your payment will occur in the following payment cycle (the following tuesday morning).

Preference in payment will be given to PayPal and MoneyBookers payments. Neither of these payment methods will incur a fee. Western Union and Wire Transfer may take up to two weeks, depending on the volume. Third party fees for these methods will be deducted from the prize.
