Nothing.gripe / Glossary: Funded Task
Funded Task
A funded task is a one-off piece of work for which the requester has already committed the task amount before an eligible doer claims it.

PROOF → REVIEW → PAYThe task defines what counts as completion before the work starts.
Funded task vs ordinary request
A normal request can describe something someone wants. A funded task adds committed money, a stated payout and usually a defined proof requirement so another person can decide whether to claim the work.
Funded task vs employment
A funded task is not automatically a salary, employment relationship or recurring contract. Its scope, timing and payout are defined per task and subject to the platform rules and terms.
