How rewards work with verification
A reward only goes out after a submission is approved. The reward is the one you picked for that ask in the campaign. Two settings decide what happens next:
- Your workspace’s Reward release setting decides whether the reward goes out on its own or waits for someone.
- The reward’s delivery type decides whether it is sent automatically or by your team.
Reward release
Set it in Settings → AI verification (see Set up AI verification):
- Send automatically when verified: the reward is released as soon as the submission is approved. In the drawer, the approve button reads Approve & send [reward].
- Wait for your approval: approving the submission does not release the reward. The submission sits in Approved and in Need action until someone clicks Approve & send [reward] on it in the Inbox. The drawer’s Reward detail says “Not sent yet. The reward needs a separate approval.”
The settings page and the campaign say these rewards “wait in Rewards → Activity”. The release itself happens on the submission in the Inbox. See Send rewards after you approve.
Delivery type
Once a reward is released, the reward’s own delivery type takes over:
- Reward connection: sent automatically through your reward connection.
- Manual by team: your team sends it, then clicks Mark as sent in the Inbox drawer or in Rewards → Activity. Until then its Reward status is Ready to send.
A submission with no reward is done once it is approved.
How it plays out
| Reward release | Delivery type | After you approve |
|---|---|---|
| Send automatically | Reward connection | Sent automatically. The submission moves to Rewarded. |
| Send automatically | Manual by team | Ready to send. Send it, then Mark as sent. |
| Wait for your approval | Reward connection | Waits for Approve & send [reward], then sent automatically. |
| Wait for your approval | Manual by team | Waits for Approve & send [reward], then Ready to send until you Mark as sent. |
| Any | No reward | Nothing to send. |
A rejected submission never sends a reward. If you later approve it with Approve & send [reward], the reward is released and then follows its delivery type.
