This agreement applies to analysts who reach Star tier (top 1% skill in a sport) and whose picks are included in paid content.
You participate as an independent contractor, not an employee. Nothing here creates an employment, partnership, or agency relationship. You are responsible for your own taxes.
Reaching Star tier is a qualification to have your picks included in paid content — it is not a prize or a reward for outcomes. 10% of each content sale is shared equally among the analysts whose picks are included in that content. Payment tracks content sales, not the accuracy of any prediction.
Before any payout, you must complete identity verification and provide tax documentation (W-9 for U.S. persons or W-8BEN for non-U.S. persons), as required by U.S. anti-money-laundering and IRS rules. Payouts cannot be released until this is complete.
Revenue share is reported as contractor income / royalty (e.g., 1099-NEC or W-8BEN), not gambling winnings. You are solely responsible for taxes on amounts you receive.
Notice Period and Final Payouts: Either party may terminate this agreement at any time by providing fifteen (15) days’ written notice to the other party. Upon termination, any undisputed finalized revenue share accrued prior to the termination date will be paid out. However, Top Pick reserves the right to hold this final payout for up to sixty (60) days to clear any pending user refunds or chargebacks.
Top Pick reserves the right to withhold, suspend, or clawback (reverse) any revenue share payments, or deduct amounts from future payouts, if we reasonably determine that:
(a) such revenue was generated through fraudulent activity, automated bots, or manipulation of the platform;
(b) you have materially breached the Terms of Service; or
(c) the underlying content sales resulted in user chargebacks, disputes, or refunds processed by our Merchant of Record (Paddle).
