Frequently asked questions

What kind of tasks does GoKuna run?

Short recording tasks you can complete on a phone: an everyday object filmed from two angles, ambient household sound, a sample of your handwriting, and head-mounted point-of-view clips of ordinary activities.

How much does a task pay?

Each task states its reward before you reserve it. Payment is recorded once your submission is accepted in review. Earnings are not guaranteed.

Who can contribute?

Contributors must be 18 or over. You only share what you have permission to share, and you can preview your contribution before uploading.

How do I know my submission was accepted?

Your reservation, the review decision and your recorded earnings status all appear in one place in your account.

How do I get paid?

Through Stripe. Open Earnings, choose Payout settings and follow the Stripe setup once. Stripe checks your identity and bank details directly, and we never see them.

When will I receive my money?

Each accepted clip is paid after review. Once a payment is sent, it usually reaches your bank within a few business days.

Which countries can be paid?

Paid tasks are open to contributors in the US, and new countries open based on demand. Practice tasks are open in every country and build your track record.

Is there a minimum payout or a fee?

Payouts start at $20. Once your accepted clips add up to $20, we send all of it, and GoKuna does not charge contributors a fee.

Are practice tasks paid?

No. Practice tasks build your track record and are not paid out. Paid tasks show their reward before you reserve them.

What if my clip is rejected?

You will see the reason. While the task is still open you can record a new clip that follows the instructions.

What happens after you submit a clip: Submit your clip → Review; Review → Paid at $20; Paid at $20 → Money arrives; Review → You see the reason. Submit your clip: Follow the task brief. Review: Decision shows in your account. Paid at $20: Sent once you reach $20, no fee. Sent through Stripe. Money arrives: Usually a few business days after it is sent. You see the reason: Record a new clip while the task is open.
What happens after you submit a GoKuna clip: it is reviewed, accepted clips are paid through Stripe once they add up to $20, with no fee, and a rejected clip shows the reason so you can record again while the task is open.

Do you withhold tax?

No. You are responsible for any tax you owe on what you earn. Stripe may ask for tax details during setup where the law requires it.

Can I delete my account?

Yes, at any time from Profile. That erases your profile and your raw files from GoKuna storage. Recordings already delivered to a customer stay licensed to that customer.
