When you create a campaign on GainWorkers, the funds you allocate are placed in a campaign wallet. This wallet acts as a holding area for your campaign budget. It ensures that funds are available to pay workers as they complete tasks and submit proof. The money in your campaign wallet is not immediately available for withdrawal; it is designated specifically for your active hiring efforts. Unused held funds are distinct from your general withdrawable balance. GainWorkers uses this system to guarantee timely payments to workers and maintain the integrity of ongoing tasks.

What the Campaign Wallet Holds

The campaign wallet on GainWorkers holds the total budget allocated for a specific campaign. When you launch a campaign, whether it is a Standard task, TimeSlot+, or Blueprint, the funds are transferred from your main employer wallet to this dedicated campaign wallet. This amount is then used to cover the payments for each task slot as workers complete and submit their work. The system deducts the payment for each approved task from the held funds. This process ensures that you have sufficient budget to complete your campaign without interruption. It also provides a clear overview of how much is allocated to each active hiring project. The funds remain held until all tasks are reviewed and settled, or until the campaign is paused or completed. Unused funds from a completed or canceled campaign are returned to your main employer wallet, but only after all review processes are finalized.

Where to Find Your Campaign Wallet Information

As an employer on GainWorkers, you can access information about your campaign wallets through your employer dashboard. Navigate to the 'Campaigns' section. Each active campaign will display its allocated budget and the amount currently held. You can review the status of individual tasks, including submitted proofs and their approval status, which directly impacts the funds remaining in the campaign wallet. To access more detailed financial information, including your overall employer wallet balance and transaction history, look for a 'Wallet' or 'Billing' section in your dashboard. This area provides a comprehensive view of deposits, expenditures, and any funds that have been released from campaign holds back into your main balance. If you need to fund a campaign, you can do so via the 'Deposit' option in your wallet, using available payment methods.

Limits and Considerations for Campaign Funds

The primary limit to understand is that funds in a campaign wallet are exclusively for that campaign's task payments and associated fees. They cannot be withdrawn while the campaign is active and has pending tasks. The amount you see as 'held' is not the same as your withdrawable cash balance. You can withdraw funds from your main employer wallet, but only after they have been released from any campaign holds and are part of your available balance. GainWorkers has specific rules for fund availability and withdrawal, which may include minimum balance requirements and processing times. Always ensure you have sufficient funds in your main wallet before launching a new campaign or continuing an existing one to avoid any disruption. Unreviewed proofs may auto-approve after the employer review window expires, which will then deduct funds from your campaign hold.

For employers looking to hire, understanding the flow of funds is crucial for budget management. GainWorkers offers a transparent system where your money is secured for your tasks, ensuring reliable payment for your workforce.

Frequently Asked Questions

What happens to unused funds in a GainWorkers campaign wallet after a campaign ends?
Once a campaign on GainWorkers is completed or canceled, and all associated proofs have been reviewed and settled, any remaining unused funds in the campaign wallet are released back to your main employer wallet. These funds then become part of your general withdrawable balance.
Can I use funds from my GainWorkers campaign wallet for a new campaign?
No, funds held within a specific campaign wallet on GainWorkers are designated solely for that active campaign. You cannot directly use these held funds for a new campaign. You would need to withdraw them from the completed campaign's wallet back to your main employer wallet and then deposit them into the new campaign's budget.
