You’ll be paid after you complete your assignments, but payment is not automatic — it relies on invoices. Invoices are typically paid within approximately 2–4 weeks after the assignment ends, depending on when a correct invoice is submitted and approved.
How invoicing works:
Automated system: A few days (normally 4) after an assignment ends, it will appear in your Quarterdeck invoice profile. You need to tick the assignment and create an invoice. Once ready, press Submit — if you leave it in “Pending,” it will not be processed.
QD Admin: Quarterdeck admins also have the ability to generate invoices on your behalf (e.g. if you forget or if corrections are needed). But this is a backup — the system is designed for you to submit your own invoices. Admin-generated invoices still need to be reviewed and batched with the rest before payment.
Processing & payment:
All invoices (yours or admin-created) go through a manual checking, correcting, and approval process.
Payments are made in weekly batches, so when you get paid depends on when your correct invoice enters the system.
Expect payment within 1–3 weeks of submitting a correct invoice, but delays can happen if details are missing. During peak season it's common with a slight delay but we try out best to pay asap.
Important reminders:
Bank details must be correct; if wrong, recalling payments can take 3–4 weeks.
Manual expenses (flights, damages, approved reimbursements) must be submitted within two weeks with receipts.
