Frequently asked questions
Everything about how OppBee verifies results, moves money and protects both sides.
About OppBee
What is OppBee?
A local customer-acquisition marketplace. Businesses publish Opps with a reward per verified result — a visit, booking or purchase. Verified local creators promote those Opps and earn the reward for every result that passes verification. The core promise: businesses pay for verified economic results, not exposure.
How is this different from advertising?
Ads charge up front for impressions or clicks and hope conversions follow. On OppBee the payment event is the verified conversion itself — proven by a signed QR scan at the point of service. If no customer shows up, no reward is paid.
How is this different from influencer marketing?
There are no follower-count negotiations, flat fees or unverifiable reach reports. Creators of any audience size earn the same posted reward for the same verified result, and every result carries an auditable evidence trail.
Where is OppBee available?
We're launching city by city, starting in Québec. Opps are inherently local — creators see what's near them. Sign up to see Opps in your area.
Is OppBee bilingual?
Yes — the entire platform is available in English and French. Opps can be published in either or both languages.
For businesses
What kinds of Opps can I run?
Fill appointments, tables or class spots; drive store visits, product sales, bookings, leads or memberships; run events, user-generated-content pushes, limited offers or win-back Opps. Each objective comes with tailored verification.
How do I fund an Opp?
You load your wallet and the Opp budget is reserved before launch. Rewards are released from reserve only as results are verified. Unused budget is released back when the Opp ends.
Can I cap what I spend?
Yes: total budget, daily budget, per-creator caps and per-customer caps. When the budget is exhausted, the Opp pauses automatically.
Who approves Opps?
Every Opp passes platform review before going live — checking clarity of the offer, fairness of rules, and compliance with our acceptable-use policy.
Can my staff use it without training?
The redemption scanner is a web page — point the camera at the customer's QR and confirm. Staff roles (front desk, cashier) have exactly the permissions they need and nothing more.
What analytics do I get?
Cost per verified customer, conversion funnel from click to visit, creator leaderboards, and a full auditable trail on every single conversion.
For creators
Who can become a creator?
OppBee is invite-only: you join with an invite code or by applying to the Founding Creators program — 100 places in Montréal. Anyone 18+ who passes identity verification can apply. You don't need an audience — regulars, students, community members and micro-creators all earn on the same terms.
How do Opps choose me?
Open Opps can be joined in one tap once you're a member. Selective Opps take applications, and some are invite-only for higher ranks. Your rank, rating and completed results determine what you can access.
What exactly earns me money?
Whatever the Opp defines as its verified result: a scanned in-store visit, a completed booking, an attended appointment, a confirmed purchase, or approved content. The reward per result is always posted before you join.
Can I lose earnings?
Rewards in the 72-hour maturation window can be reversed if the underlying result is refunded, disputed successfully or flagged as fraud. Matured, available earnings are yours.
How do payouts work?
Once your available balance reaches $25 you can request a payout to your configured payout method. Payout history and statuses are visible in your dashboard.
Can I promote however I want?
You must follow the Opp's rules, include required disclosures (your links are referral links — that must be disclosed), and never make prohibited claims. Violations affect your rank and can forfeit related earnings.
Payments, verification and trust
What makes a result 'verified'?
A chain of signed evidence: attributed claim, signed single-use redemption code, staff scan at the point of service, passing fraud score, and the 72-hour window without reversal. Only then is the result final.
What data do you collect about customers?
The minimum to honour the offer: name, one contact detail, and explicit consent at claim time. Customers are not required to create accounts. Handling follows Québec Law 25 and PIPEDA principles — see our privacy policy.
How are disputes resolved?
Either party opens a dispute with a reason and evidence. The other side responds, then an admin reviews the complete transaction record and issues a documented decision — uphold, deny or split — that moves funds accordingly.
What happens to fraudsters?
Confirmed fraud leads to forfeited earnings, account suspension or ban, and — where warranted — reporting. The fraud model learns from every confirmed case.
Is my money safe on the platform?
Balances move only through transactional, audited operations tied to verified events. Opp reserves cannot be double-spent, and every movement is traceable in your wallet history.
