Participating in Express missions
Express missions are the new way to make a buck right away with dscout! These missions are much shorter than a typical mission on the dscout platform; answer a maximum of 20 questions for up to $5, and get paid within a few hours.

Express missions vs. Diary and Live
Express missions are quick tasks than can be completed in a short amount of time for a small reward. For larger rewards, you must complete an application on the "Explore" tab of your app and get selected to participate in a Diary or Live mission. Diary or Live missions often require longer time commitments and are highly selective, which is why we use an application process.

Participating in Express missions
Participating in Express missions is easy! If one is available, you'll find it at the top of your "Explore" tab in the app. If the subject sounds like something you're interested in, get started! If it turns out you're not a good fit for the Express mission, we'll let you know in the app that we're looking for scouts with slightly different experiences.
Getting paid for Express missions
In order to get paid for participating in an Express mission, you'll need to fit the criteria we're looking for, complete the Express mission entirely, and pass our quality evaluation. If you don't fit the audience criteria or don't pass our quality evaluation, we'll let you know with in-app messaging so you know what to expect. So long as you submit a complete, high quality entry, you can expect to see your payment within a few hours - sometimes as soon as a few minutes!
