Every Take has a deadline to keep things clear, predictable, and on track.
We’ve also built in simple ways to handle delays, so work can continue smoothly and payments don’t get stuck.
Deadlines
When a Take is assigned, a deadline is set based on what the Poster selected.
The Taker is expected to start and complete the task within that timeframe. Deadlines help both sides stay aligned and avoid confusion.
If a Taker hasn’t started
If the Taker hasn’t started before the deadline:
-
They receive a reminder
-
A 6-hour grace period begins
After the grace period, the Poster can:
-
Cancel the Take
-
Or extend the deadline
Requesting an extension
If more time is needed, the Taker can request a new deadline.
-
The Poster can approve or decline
-
If approved, the deadline updates automatically
-
If declined, the original deadline still applies
After completion
Once the Taker marks the Take as completed:
-
The Poster reviews the work
-
They can approve it or request a revision
Auto-approval
If the Poster doesn’t take action within a set time, the system will automatically approve the Take and release payment.
This helps avoid unnecessary delays and ensures Takers are not left waiting.
Why this matters
-
Keeps tasks moving without delays
-
Protects Takers from waiting too long for payment
-
Gives Posters enough time to review the work properly
Tip
If something might delay the work, communicate early. It makes extensions easier and helps avoid cancellations.
