If you have participated in a Campaign and have expenses that need to be reimbursed, you can request a payment from the Marketer on your Direct Pay tab. The Direct Pay tab is not to be used for requesting payments from Marketers for any Sponsorship or Content opportunities that you have completed through the platform. These payments can be found on your Finances tab.
You can only request payments for expenses that have incurred after the negotiated price. For example, if you incurred a travel expense such as a hotel stay that the Marketer has agreed to pay, you can request reimbursement for this expense from the Direct Pay tab. The following article will walk you through requesting a payment.
- First make sure that your phone number has been verified and your PayPal has been added to the system. The following articles will help you with how to do that:
