📊 How Our Ethical Model Works
Understand the full flow of capital, services, and returns in GPOD's transparent earned wage access ecosystem.
The Process
Investors contribute capital to GPOD's ethical wages fund, min. £1,000 to start.
Workers access their already-earned wages before payday via the GPOD app (not a loan).
Workers pay a small, flat £2.50 service fee per drawdown—never a percentage or interest.
Service fees are fairly distributed: 70–85% go to investors, the rest to platform operation/growth.
Employers reconcile accessed wages during normal payroll, ensuring capital security.
