Storyhunter is a freelancer management system that allows you to spend less time dealing with the administrative hassles and more time doing the work you love. For your client, it helps them manage their invoices and contacts, sign contracts and pay you quickly, as well as communicate with you via email or the Storyhunter mobile app.

How it works

1. Accept invite

Make sure to accept the email invite sent by your client so you are automatically connected with them on the platform. If you can't see it then please search your inbox for notifications@storyhunter.com.

2. Create a profile

The link in the email invite will direct you to create your profile on Storyhunter.
After this you will be directed through the profile creation pages where you will need to enter your basic information, add a profile photo, upload samples of previous work, and details about your professional set up.

3. Enter your payment information

Once your basic profile has been set up you will be directed to your profile page. The next step is to add your payment information. Click your profile picture in the top right corner and select Settings to get started.

In the Settings page select Payment Information from the options on the left of the page. Hit Set Up on the right to get started. This will lead you through the Payoneer account creation process. If you have any questions along the way please consult our help article or send a note to support@storyhunter.com.

4. Join Client’s Private Network

The client who invited you will receive a notification and your profile will appear in their Saved network. Once they've located your profile they will click "Hire".

5. Accept Offer

Upon clicking "Hire" the publisher will enter the details of the commission. You will receive an email notification that they've made you an offer. You then just need to accept the offer and electronically sign your contract with the client.

6. Get paid

Once the project has been accepted and automatically marked as "complete" your payment will be logged. Storyhunter pays you in 30 days, guaranteed. You can see the expected date of your payment within the relevant project page. Make sure you have created your account on Payoneer and select your preferred payment method.

For any questions about Payoneer or payment processing please check our Payments FAQ page here or get in touch with us by emailing support@storyhunter.com.
