Are the payouts based on CPM? CPC? Can you give us an idea of what payouts would look like?

Payouts are difficult to predict.

The way that we compensate our Publishers is based on a rev share (60/40 ~ Solve Media/Publisher). The rev share is applicable when a correctly completed or solved type-in is submitted for an ad unit/revenue puzzle ONLY. Our standard CAPTCHA-like puzzles do not contribute to your payout as they are meant to better secure a site while filling non-advertisement inventory. Payout is also based on the CPT (cost per type-in) rates that we secure with our Advertiser partners. These vary based on Insertion Order agreements and can change frequently. We have algorithms in place that perform all of these calculations and then distribute amongst our Publisher partners. Other factors in your payout include the amount of traffic you get to your site, the amount of times that revenue puzzles are displayed and the places where you place our widget. We've found that places like password resets encourage higher engagement than others.

Typical eCPMs can be anywhere from $1 - $20 depending on your implementation and revenue.
