GLOSSARY TERM
Bounty / Milestone Payment
Bounties pay for singular events rather than flowing volume: €1,000 for the first 10 FTDs from a newly regulated state, a fixed fee on publishing an agreed content package, launch-week bonuses during a brand release.
The niche they fill
New-market launches and content partnerships have upfront costs that per-FTD economics don’t cover — bounties bridge that gap without permanently distorting the rate card. Define completion criteria in writing (what counts, verified how, paid when); bounty disputes are rare but purely self-inflicted when terms lived in a Skype thread.
