BALANCE ACCOUNTABILITY

8 of 36

How Milestone payments work

Your first payment will be released on successful completion of onboarding including Proof of Life and agreement of your Statement of Milestones.

The first payment will be your costs up-to completion of Milestone 1 divided between the number of months needed to complete milestone 1.

Then the milestone outputs need to be demonstrated with evidence to the Challenge Team and IOG.

Once approved, payments to achieve M2 will begin to be distributed

Example

Total project request: $100,000

Time to complete: 12 month

Milestones: 4 including completion

M1 cost: $25k - 4 months to complete

M2 cost $20k - 4 months to complete

Etc
