How prepaid and payment pending contests are different:
- Prepaid (guaranteed): A prepaid contest means the client has made a deposit to post their project and the client is able to download the files submitted by designers.
- Payment pending: A payment pending contest means the client has not made a deposit for the work. If the payment is pending, the client can only view the screenshot image and can’t download CAD file attachments until payment is complete. We suggest asking the client to prepay a project before you spend a significant amount on design work or only complete a portion of the design requirement as a sample.
