Interesting - how do you solve disputes? Say a farmer claims the work is done (e.g. the app is tested), but the company disagrees and doesn't want to pay?

- oxad 7mo agoGreat question, and actually one of the first things I designed around! We only allow missions where completion can be objectively (or publicly) verified, no gray areas. In your example, if the app requires a registration or is restricted to beta users, the farmer must use the same email address linked to their Reward.Farm account. The brand can request screenshots or any other proof, but honestly most of the time it won't even be necessary as app creators often already see every user action on their end. On top of that, our reputation and level system lets brands restrict missions to experienced farmers only (e.g. Level 5+). Bad actors get flagged early and never really become a problem. Since most starting missions come with modest rewards, there's simply no incentive to cheat. Try to game the system and your reputation takes the hit, meaning bigger, higher-paying missions stay out of reach. Also, once we have a solid base of trusted users, disputes could be resolved through a community jury system: a random selection of verified members anonymously reviews both sides' submitted appeal/evidence and votes on a verdict. No central judge, just trusted peers. Would you agree to that kind of process as part of our Terms of Service? That said, I'm not claiming this will be perfect, where there's money, there will always be people trying to exploit it.
