A runner picks the rails they can pay from, their limits and their fee, takes the jobs they want, sends the money from their own account and gets the amount back in USDG plus their fee. Start in the runner app.
Start in a minute#
- 01
Sign once
Connect a wallet and sign one message: it makes your runner keys in this tab. No gas, nothing sent.
- 02
Pick your apps
The apps and banks you have your own account on, in good standing.
- 03
Set your limits and fee
Job sizes from $1 up to $1,000, and your fee, up to 5%. Jobs that pay less than that won't be yours to take.
- 04
Go online
Save and start: new jobs on your rails show up on your board, live.
Running a job#
- 01
Take it
The recipient stays sealed until the agent funds the escrow. Send nothing yet.
- 02
Wait for the lock
Once the agent locks the USDG, the details open in your tab only: who, how much, the note.
- 03
Send exactly the amount
From your own account, to the details shown, with the note if there is one.
- 04
Attach your proof and mark it paid
A reference or a screenshot, sealed for the agent and the arbiter. A relayer submits your signature on-chain: you need no gas.
- 05
Get paid out
When the agent releases, or 24 h after “paid” without a dispute, the amount and your fee land at a fresh address in your private balance.
Good to know#
- Keys
- Runner keys derive from the Nara keys you unlock with a wallet signature. Each job uses a fresh key, so a runner's jobs don't link on-chain.
- Earnings
- Each payout goes to a fresh one-time address only you can spend from, and shows up in your private balance.
- Reputation
- A pseudonymous alias with a track record: jobs completed, on-time rate, disputes lost, a volume bucket. Never a name.
- You front the money
- You pay first and get reimbursed after the 24 h window. If the agent disputes and the arbiter rules against you, the agent is refunded. Keep your proof.
- The apps' rules
- You use your own accounts under each app's terms, limits included. Some apps restrict business use or payments on someone else's behalf: read their terms before you run.
- Independent
- Runners are independent people, not Nara staff. They pay from their own accounts and must follow those apps' terms and limits.
