	=== ~~What~~ is it? ===		Fundraising work is often precarious: intense periods of income followed by nothing. This is not a matter of individual poor planning; it is how the ecosystem of short-term gig work is structured. Revenue Spreading starts from the worker's real need: some prefer money now, others prefer the security of knowing something will still arrive years later. The mechanism aims to leave that choice with the person, not the platform.
	~~Revenue Spreading lets dialoguers (street fundraisers) choose~~ their ~~payout model~~: receive 100% in the first year, or receive 20% distributed across ten years. The ~~ten~~-~~year~~ option ~~is designed to provide long~~-~~term~~ income ~~stability for workers in precarious situations, smoothing earnings rather than front~~-~~loading them~~.
			__TOC__

			<span id="the-need"></span>
			== The need: stability for precarious work ==
			Take Yasmin, a dialoguer who signs up new WikiDeal members on the street. In a classic model she would be paid once and then face uncertainty. With Revenue Spreading she could choose a smaller amount each year for ten years, turning a burst of work into a modest but reliable stream. Someone else in a different situation might prefer everything up front. Both choices are legitimate; flexibility is the point.

			<span id="how-it-works"></span>
			== How it is intended to work ==
			At the point of earning, the worker selects the payout schedule that best fits their needs: receive 100% in the first year, or receive 20% distributed across ten years. The spread-out option converts a one-time payment into a durable income stream. The detailed schedule mechanics and eligibility are being documented progressively as the platform evolves.

			<span id="roles"></span>
			== Who does what ==
			* '''Dialoguers''' choose their own payout model at the moment of earning.
			* '''The platform''' publishes the schedules transparently and executes them automatically.
			* '''The community''' can review and refine the mechanism through [[Gov/en/Portal:R&D/Open-Calls:Main\|Open Calls]].

	=== ~~How~~ it ~~works on WikiDeal =~~==		<span id="why-it-matters"></span>
	~~At the point~~ of ~~earning, the~~ worker ~~selects~~ the ~~payout~~ schedule that ~~best fits~~ their ~~needs~~. ~~The spread-out option converts~~ a ~~one-time payment into a durable income stream. The detailed schedule mechanics and eligibility are documented progressively as~~ the platform ~~evolves~~.		== Why it matters for the ecosystem ==
			Revenue Spreading expresses two of WikiDeal's guiding aims in a very concrete way: flexibility (each worker picks the schedule that suits their life) and transparency (published, predictable schedules instead of discretionary bonuses). It also reflects a systemic view of precarity: rather than expecting individuals to absorb the volatility of gig work, the platform design itself can smooth it.
