Get paid

Learn how to get paid on Scholars.

On Scholars, if you have an active contract and you are actively working on one of our jobs, you'll be paid by the hour, weekly.

What are the steps I must take to get paid?

1

Set up your banking information

You must set up your banking information, so we know where to pay you.

You will not be able to accept a job offer if you have not set up your banking information.

4

Send your weekly timesheet at the end of the week

When you are done for the week, you must send your timesheet detailing how long you have worked that week and what you worked on. This is mandatory to get paid, and a human will review and verify your timesheet.

On Scholars, this only takes a few clicks. Learn how do create and send your timesheet to review here:

Send a timesheet

That's it. If your timesheet is approved, you will be paid for it. You can keep track of your payments from the Payments tab, which you can access from the left-hand side menu.

Payments can show different statuses as they move through review and processing. Waiting for manager approval means the payment has not been approved yet, Sent for processing means it has been sent to the payment provider, and Processed means the payment provider reported it as paid. If a payment shows as Failed, Scholars will show whether the payment failed during processing or was returned because the payment information may need to be corrected.

When the payment provider shares an estimated delivery date, Scholars shows it in the payment table so you can see when the payment is expected to arrive.
