Payment proposal · Draft for client review
How money moves on Think Local OS
Businesses pay first. The platform holds the money. Creators are paid once the work is confirmed.
- Payment partner Fiuu
- All amounts in MYR
- Amounts are examples
The money path
Follow RM500 from the business to the creator's bank account.
One order, step by step
The order status tells everyone where the work and the money are.
-

Payout sentPaid out
Proof of work
The creator cannot simply click "done"
Submitted with every delivery
- The link to the live post on Instagram, TikTok or Facebook
- A screenshot of the post
- Optional files, drafts or notes
How it is checked
- The business reviews the proof before anything is released
- Where the link shows the account name, as TikTok links do, the system checks it matches the creator's connected account
- In a dispute, an admin sees the chat, links and screenshots together
Engagement tasks work the same way. The contributor submits a link or screenshot of their comment or share. The platforms do not let us confirm a third party's like automatically, so an admin spot-checks a sample.

Still to confirm
These answers decide the final settings. Nothing is built until they are agreed.
With Fiuu
- Touch 'n Go eWallet is switched on for our account
- Access to their Escrow and Mass Payout service, which is available on request only
- Whether the platform may collect money and pay it on to creators, or needs their Marketplace or Escrow product
- Fees for each payment method, and how many days settlement takes
- How refunds work, and what settlement reports we receive
With the client
- The commission rate
- The review window (proposed: 3 days) and the number of revisions
- Minimum payout and how often payouts run
- Who pays the payment fees
- The refund and dispute policy
- Tax and e-invoicing rules, with their accountant
This is a proposal for discussion. The RM500 order, the 10% commission and the 3-day review window are examples until the client confirms the real settings. Today an influencer order only shows Paid. Delivery proof, the wallet and payouts are new features to build.
