Keep in mind

Request payout must be at least $0.62; the bonus can be zero. Be specific about the topic and respectful of the customer’s time.

02

Individual and bulk behavior

A single-reference request sends an individual email. If multiple eligible references match, Bulk send to all can create a first-to-accept opportunity. Bulk requests create secure links without automatically emailing a recipient list.

The acceptance window is 15 minutes. SMS delivery is paused pending setup, so creating a request does not confirm text delivery. Do not imply every matching reference was contacted.
