Contribution Reward (Bounty) Information

Overview

PayD encourages the open‑source community to help improve the platform by offering bounties for high‑priority issues. Contributors who solve eligible issues can earn a monetary reward, paid in the platform's native asset.

Who Can Earn a Bounty?

  • Developers who submit a pull request that fully resolves a bounty‑tagged issue.
  • Designers who provide approved UI/UX assets for a bounty.
  • Documentation writers who create or significantly improve documentation for a bounty.

Eligibility Criteria

  1. Issue must be marked with a bounty – Look for the bounty label on GitHub issues.
  2. Work must be merged – The pull request must be merged into the main branch.
  3. No prior claim – Only the first qualifying contribution receives the reward.
  4. Compliance – Follow the project's Code of Conduct and contribution guidelines.

Claim Process

  1. Complete the work and open a pull request referencing the bounty issue (e.g., Fixes #123).
  2. Pass all CI checks – Ensure the PR passes linting, tests, and any integration checks.
  3. Merge – Once approved, the maintainers will merge the PR.
  4. Submit a claim – Open a new issue titled Bounty Claim: #<issue-number> and include:
    • Link to the merged PR.
    • Your wallet address (Stellar public key) where the reward should be sent.
  5. Verification – Maintainers will verify the contribution and process the payment within 7 business days.

Reward Details

  • Rewards are paid in PayD's stable asset (e.g., ORGUSD) on the Stellar network.
  • The bounty amount is defined in the original issue description.
  • Taxes and regulatory compliance are the responsibility of the recipient.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • What if my PR is partially accepted?
    • Bounties are only awarded for fully resolved issues. Partial fixes may be considered for future bounties.
  • Can I claim multiple bounties?
    • Yes, you can claim any number of bounties as long as each meets the eligibility criteria.
  • How are disputes handled?
    • Disputes are reviewed by the core maintainers. Their decision is final.
