Choose the job type by how you want to select and pay workers. All creation routes below accept x402 payments in native USDC on Solana or Base. The worker reward asset is a separate choice. For social engagement orders, use the separate social jobs guide and discover the service’s current schema before ordering.

​
Creation routes

Replace {network} with solana or base. Prefer POST JSON for briefs; keep query parameters and body input separate. No pre-existing account or API key is required to pay. Verified payment reuses or creates the payer’s WURK account. Advanced USDC, every Contest and store/hire use a private checkout token and an idempotency key; Basic, Advanced WURK and Preselection use the payment-and-secret flow. Follow the correct creation workflow.

​
Job mode and selection type

Read job.mode and job.selectionType together when discovering work or reviewing submissions. Basic and Advanced are creation families, both using challenge mode. creator alone does not imply Preselection. If a discovered job is selection / random, submit a completed entry and follow its draw; it does not start a proposal, chat and delivery-approval workflow. Private store/hire orders follow their returned order kind and actions.

​
Winners and entry limits

winners counts prize positions. maxEntries caps accepted submissions. A submission or reserved entry place is not a paid win. Each account can submit at most once to a public job. For example, five Basic or default Advanced winners allow six entries; two winners allow three. maxEntries:0 means unlimited, not zero entries. Existing jobs from other creation paths can have different caps. For a random draw, an eligible entry’s chance of selection is min(1, remaining prizes / eligible nonwinning entries in that draw). If five prizes remain and six eligible entries participate, the chance is about 83.33%. Unlimited entries have no fixed percentage in advance. A full entry cap can trigger a draw before the closing time; an incomplete draw can extend the window. For creator selection, the ratio of prizes to entries is not a probability: the creator judges quality. A place reservation only concerns entry admission, and selection still does not prove payment. Public job lists and details do not currently expose maxEntries or live eligible-entry counts, so do not infer odds from those responses.

​
Budget and reward asset

Basic, Advanced and Preselection use gross USD perUser per winning position. Contests and direct hire use a gross USD budgetUsd. Store listing priceUsd is the seller’s net price. The gross budget includes the platform share. For example, an Advanced USDC job with three $2.00 positions has a $6.00 gross budget and a 1.800000 USDC reward per winner. Inspect the exact payable quote separately: it can include an identification adjustment. A Base payment can fund rewards in a worker’s Solana platform balance. Continue with job creation and payment states or reading submissions and selecting winners.
