Billing - For Companies

Updated this week

Easily manage your company balance, view transaction history, and manage payment methods through the billing dashboard. Whether you're making your first payment on Riipen or reviewing past transactions, the billing dashboard provides a centralized, secure, and transparent experience.

General

Balance

Riipen provides a company wallet, where your company can maintain a balance to use towards paid learner projects. The company wallet functionality allows the up-front deposit taken when you accept a learner application to then be used towards paying that learner. The ability to deposit funds manually allows companies the ability to set aside project funds in advance, but to still pay out to learners as deliverables are completed.

The Balance & transactions page of the Company Billing dashboard shows the current balance available to your company, and all transactions related to your company.

You can have balances in multiple currencies; these will each be listed separately.

Company wallet functionality is new in November 2025. Deposits taken prior to Nov 26, 2025 were held as security deposits and are not reflected in company wallets. Deposits from before this date are automatically refunded at the project end.

Transactions

Your balance is updated by deposits, withdrawals, and charges.

  • Deposits - Created either through using "Add funds" on this page to manually deposit funds for future usage, or taken automatically when accepting a learner's application on a paid project.

    • An "Incoming" balance indicates that your deposit was received but is still settling, a necessary step by our payment processor. Click the deposit transaction to see when settling funds will complete. Funds that are still incoming are not able to be paid out to learners.

  • Withdrawals - Through the Withdrawals tab of the billing dashboard, a company administrator with payments permission can link a payment account via Stripe to request a withdrawal of funds. Withdrawals are reviewed manually to prevent misuse.

  • Charges - Charges are incurred when invoices from learners are approved. If your company has an available balance, you will see a debit charge that reduces your balance, and pays that amount out to the learner. If your company does not have an available balance, you'll see a credit charge adding to the balance, then paying out that amount to the learner through a corresponding debit charge.

Payment methods

Riipen accepts all major credit cards, including Visa, MasterCard, and American Express. Employers can store multiple payment methods within their billing dashboard to maintain flexibility and ease of use.

Only your designated primary payment method is ever charged for payments. You may store as many payment methods as you like, but only non-primary payment methods can be deleted at any time. Your primary payment method can only be removed if your company is not actively engaged in a paid project.

Your payment method must have associated billing information; the country and postal card used for that card's billing address.

Invoices & payments

All monetary transactions are made up of invoices and payments. As a learner completes or finishes work on a project an invoice will be generated detailing what work was completed and the amount now owed for that work. From the invoice, payments will be made and processed according to the rules set by the experience. Your company may be required to pay all, some, or none of the invoice depending on these rules. If a payment from your company is required, it will be attached to the invoice and will be processed with your company's primary payment method after the invoice has been approved.

Currencies

Because Riipen is a global platform, you may end up working with learners who are operating with a different currency than you are use to. Invoices and payments will always be displayed with the applicable currency and any payment made from your company to a learner will also be made to that displayed currency.

If an experience shows $100 USD but you are paying from a CAD payment method, your CAD will be converted to USD at the time of the transaction. Always be aware of the currency conversions so you do not end up with an unexpected bill.
