I am really happy to announce this one.
The number one request that we have had for a while has definitely for us to handle the transactions between project owners and winners.
We do that now. When a winner is selected, a transfer is created, where the winner can upload the original files and approve. When the project owner approves as well, the files are unlocked for download and the winner receives the money.
Currently, we encourage PayPal for the transfer but if you ask really nicely, we can figure something out. This will change in the future, but then, we might also implement support for other money services like MoneyBookers if the demand is strong enough.
The other change is that projects now have to be pre-paid. You cannot create a project without transfering the prize money to us. This is a way to signal that you are serious about the project. Of course, we have the 100% money back guarantee if you are not happy with the results.
