From mission to payout, step by step
BIG invoices on behalf of the experts through Stripe, takes its commission and remits to the expert once the funds are received. The full process is below, with no grey areas.
The principle: invoicing on behalf of third parties
When a mission is invoiced, BIG issues the invoice in the name and on behalf of the independent sales rep, via Stripe. BIG acts as an intermediary and payment agent: it does not substitute for either the company or the expert in the commercial relationship, and it does not hold the funds.
The journey, from brief to payout
The mission is set
The company and the independent sales rep agree on the scope, duration and amount of the mission directly between themselves.
The invoice is issued
BIG issues the invoice in the name and on behalf of the expert (invoicing on behalf of third parties) and sends it to the company. On a long mission, invoicing follows the progress.
The company pays via Stripe
The company settles the invoice through Stripe, a licensed payment service provider. BIG does not hold the funds: they are processed by Stripe.
The expert is paid out
Once the funds are received, the amount is remitted to the expert's account, net of BIG's commission. The expert remains responsible for their tax obligations (including VAT).
What BIG takes
BIG earns a 3% commission excl. VAT (minimum €5 excl. VAT) on invoices generated through the platform, only when a mission succeeds. Creating an account and platform access are free. The day rate shown to companies includes BIG's commission.
