Binder Contributor Share
When your work creates value, you should share in it.
Original reporting and thoughtful guest writing help people discover Binder. Approved human contributors can receive a clearly defined share of revenue directly attributable to their work. Views alone never generate a fictional payout.
How the share is calculated
Who can contribute
Binder Sole, Pro and Enterprise members, Binder University account holders, and subscribers to either paid Binder Intelligence tier may submit original work without a separate contribution charge. There is no free contributor account. A general sign-in or Binder trial is not enough. Revenue sharing remains available to eligible, verified contributors under an approved agreement.
Fair, attributable and independent
Revenue is attributed to an article only when there is a verifiable transaction and a credible link to that publication. Processing costs, applicable taxes, refunds and disputes are deducted before the share is calculated. Advertising and paid content sales aren't counted unless those products actually generate attributable receipts.
Only approved human contributors with an accepted agreement may earn a share. Fictional editorial personas, automated content and unverified bylines aren't eligible. Editorial decisions remain independent of payment, and participation never guarantees publication or income.
New earnings normally have a 30 day settlement hold. Approved payouts require a verified payment account, tax details and a minimum eligible balance of $25 CAD. The dashboard separates unverified receipts, estimated earnings and approved payments. Rules apply prospectively from an article's enrolment, not automatically to historical revenue.
Contributors grant Binder agreed publication rights while retaining the underlying intellectual property as set out in their signed terms. Public bylines do not identify private ownership, payment identities or editorial administration.
Program terms version 2026-10-09-v1. These are proposed standard commercial terms pending individual agreement and payment verification. No article or contributor becomes eligible merely because a byline appears on Binder.
