Neighbour Bounty

Post a small local job with USDC held in escrow, released when the neighbourhood confirms it is done.

The bus shelter graffiti has sat for months. Residents chip $40 into a Neighbour Bounty, a teenager cleans it, two residents confirm with photos, and he gets paid plus a public civic-work badge.

Mission

Let any street fund and finish the small fixes nobody owns, and give the young people who do them a visible record of civic work.

The need

Every street has small jobs everyone wants done and nobody owns: a tagged bus shelter, a blocked gully, shopping for an elderly neighbour. People will chip in, but pooled cash goes missing, and there is no fair way to check the work before paying.

What it will never do

  • Release money without the neighbour confirmations you set
  • Let the organiser withdraw funds from escrow
  • Post a worker's face or address publicly without consent
  • Assign dangerous jobs to anyone under 18
  • Promise income or returns to workers or funders
Owner playbook

Pick your voyage

Neighbour Bounty lets your street pool small amounts of USDC into escrow for a real job and release it only when neighbours confirm the work with photos. If you run it on your own wallet, the escrow contract, the civic-work badges and the community that trusts it all carry your name, not a platform's. Every completed job is a public onchain record that your neighbourhood gets things done, and that you were the one who made it possible.

Straight answers

Before you own it

I can't code.

You don't need to. The app ships deployed to your wallet with a setup guide. Your work is posting the first bounty and talking to neighbours, which no code can do for you anyway.

What if nobody chips in?

Start with a job you would happily fund alone, like $20 for clearing the alley. A funded bounty with your name on it is the best invitation for others to add to the next one. Some streets will stay small, and that is fine.

Is the money really safe in escrow?

Funds sit in a contract deployed from your wallet with release rules you can read. Nobody, including DEPLOYR, can move them outside those rules. Still, start with small amounts until you have watched a few releases work.

Is paying a teenager for work legal?

Small one-off jobs are normal in most places, but local rules on minors, permits and public property differ. Get permission from the council or property owner for anything on public land, and keep jobs safe and age appropriate.

What if it breaks?

The contract is simple and verified. If the web page has a problem, funds stay in escrow and can still be released by the confirmed rules. Your DEPLOYR purchase includes the get-it-shipped promise for setup issues.
