From accepted to paid: evidence, review and cash-out
On a standard bounty, confirm your seat, do the work and press “Submit evidence”. The poster has four days to review; no decision opens a dispute. Approved work shows “Approved · release pending”. Once payment is released it shows “Paid” and lands in Earnings; cash out after payout verification.

Steps
- 1
Confirm your seat
Acceptance holds a seat for you. Confirm it in time, then start within the time shown.
- 2
Capture proof as you go
Take the photos, recordings or notes the bounty asks for while you work. Evidence must be real and from this task.
- 3
Submit evidence
Press “Submit evidence”. The status moves to “Evidence in review” and the four-day review window starts.
- 4
Handle a redo if asked
If the poster requests changes, redo the part they name and submit again before the deadline shown.
- 5
Cash out
When payment is released it shows as “Paid” and lands in Earnings. Finish payout verification, then cash out.
Illustrative only — for an imagined “assemble a bookshelf” bounty.
- Before you leave: one wide photo of the finished shelf in place, one close-up of the wall anchor, one of the cleared work area.
- Match the list to the bounty’s “Required evidence” — nothing staged, edited or reused from another job.
What is true today
- On standard bounties, when you are accepted you confirm your seat, then start and submit evidence within the times shown. “Missed deadlines release your seat to other applicants.”
- On a standard bounty you finish with “Submit evidence”, and the poster then has four days to review it.
- On standard bounties the poster can approve your evidence, reject it or request a redo, with up to three redos. Approved work shows “Approved · release pending” until payment is released, then “Paid”.
- On a standard bounty, if the four-day review window ends with no decision, RentAHuman opens a dispute so its team reviews the work; bounty payment is not released automatically.
- Released pay lands in Earnings. “You can only cash out earnings”, and paying out to a bank needs payout verification — for Stripe, “Complete Stripe verification to enable payouts to your bank.”

What this doesn’t promise
- Pay is released for work the poster approves or that is resolved in your favour, not for every submission.
- These steps describe standard RentAHuman bounties. Specialized programs, such as RentAKaren negotiations, have their own eligibility and settlement rules.
- Payout timing after cash-out depends on your payout provider and bank.
