Writer Tiers

Learn About Scripted's Writer Rewards System

What are Writer Tiers?

Scripted Writers are sorted into Tiers that represent accomplishments on the platform and are eligible to go up or down tiers if they meet certain qualifications.

All new writers begin at the default tier of Bronze.

What are the benefits for each tier?

In addition to a badge on your portfolio that signifies your current tier, each tier comes with certain restrictions or benefits. You can view the full list below:

What is the processing fee?

For writers on the Bronze and Silver tiers, Scripted charges a processing fee for the jobs you find on the platform. Gold Tier writers and higher are rewarded with no processing fees.

How do I view my current tier?

You can view your current tier, as well as any benefits in your Portfolio.

How do I advance to the next tier?

Tiers are determined by your ability to produce high-quality content over a period of time. Your performance will be evaluated periodically based on the following criteria:

In the event that your account qualifies for an upgrade, the Marketplace team will reach out via email to notify you.

Are Writer Tiers visible to clients?

All tiers with the exception of Bronze are visible to clients as a badge on your profile, but we've designed the tier system so that this won’t restrict your ability to win jobs. Gold and Platinum writers usually have repeat relationships with clients and full schedules, so you won’t be in direct competition often. The system is designed to offer work to Bronze and Silver writers while they're still getting started.

Is It Possible To Lose My Standing?

All accounts are reviewed every thirty days to determine whether they are eligible for promotion. If you haven’t been active on the platform or have underperformed, it is possible to lose your current ranking. 

In the case of Rejected content, the rejection will be subject to internal review which will determine whether it impacts your tier level.
