Getting Paid for Raid Work

RaidGuild uses a common legal and operating path for client work. The normal flow is:

  1. the client pays RaidGuild under the agreed contract and payment schedule;
  2. the Guild retains 10% of client revenue as spoils; and
  3. the remainder is paid to the Raid Party according to the split agreed before the work.

RaidGuild LLC Registration​

Paid contributors must be registered with RaidGuild DAO LLC, a Marshall Islands DAO LLC administered through MiDAO, and complete its light KYC process.

Membership is not payroll registration

Holding RaidGuild DAO shares does not automatically make you eligible to receive Raid payments. DAO membership and LLC registration are separate requirements.

Complete the current registration workflow before the party expects to distribute funds. Ask the responsible Cleric or finance steward for the live form and requirements rather than relying on a static link that may expire.

Agree on the Split First​

Before delivery begins, the party should record:

  • total scope and payment schedule;
  • the mandatory 10% Guild spoils;
  • each party member’s amount or percentage;
  • who is responsible for invoicing and distribution;
  • whether Smart Invoice or another escrow path will be used; and
  • what happens if scope, staffing, or timing changes.

Payment and DAO Shares​

Review note

Some members may choose to direct an approved portion of compensation toward DAO shares when the DAO’s current rules allow it. Confirm whether this remains an active practice and document the approved process before presenting it as a payment option. This is a governance action, not the default payroll path.

Before Funds Move​

  • Confirm the client payment has cleared.
  • Confirm the invoice, spoils, and party split match the written agreement.
  • Confirm every recipient is eligible through the LLC process.
  • Confirm wallet or banking details through the approved private workflow.
  • Keep transaction and payment evidence available to the party and the appropriate Guild operators.
