We provide a Billing Security policy for hourly job contracts that safeguards work hours on the Cad Crowd platform. The policy ensures payment protection for eligible timesheets for hourly contracts.

Activities not covered by the Billing Security policy
Work Journal timesheets that fail to satisfy all the eligibility requirements are excluded from the Billing Security policy.
For instance, the following aren’t covered under the policy:

Billing Security for hourly job contracts does not cover non-qualifying hours, such as:
- Untracked hours: Manual time entries may encompass milestones, bonuses, and other one-time payments.
- Weekly retainers: Weekly retainers that are paid in advance and not based on hours logged with the Cad Crowd app.
- Unverified payment: Payments from clients who still need to authenticate their verified payment methods.
- Terms of service: Experts that breach Cad Crowd’s terms of service or help other users violate the platform TOS.
- Fraud: Cases that involve participation in fraudulent actions or exploitation of the Billing Security policy for hourly job contracts.
The Billing Security policy adheres to the terms and conditions mentioned in our terms of service and Escrow Rules for hourly job contracts.
