How to Be a Pro GM with Sqyre

Thank you for choosing to become a professional GM on Sqyre. Whether you're just starting or a seasoned pro, this guide will walk you through everything you need to know to manage your games smoothly and get paid for your hard work.

Scheduling Your Game

When you're ready to launch a new public game, you'll choose the day of the week, start time, and session duration. This information will be displayed on your game's detail page until all the seats you've made available are filled. Once that happens, the first session will automatically be scheduled for the next available date, and both you and the players will receive emails telling you the session has been scheduled. Just remember, because we want to give players an opportunity to find and book your game, you can't schedule a game for less than three days in the future.

Rescheduling a Game

If you need to adjust your game schedule, including rescheduling to a different day or time, head to your game's detail page, click "Manage Game" and then "Edit Game Details." This will take you back to the setup page where you can change details like the day of the week or start time. After saving your changes, an email will be sent to all players who have accepted the game notifying them of the new session schedule.

Canceling a Session

If you need to cancel a session entirely, on the game detail page click "Manage Game" and “Cancel Session”. Your players will receive email notifications that the session has been canceled. Refer back to our cancellation policy for more details.

Understanding Sqyre's Fees

Sqyre takes a 10% commission from each player's session fees.

Adding Your Bank Account as a GM

You've got two options to connect to our payment partner Stripe: you can either create and/or link your Stripe account when you create a paid game, or use the Stripe link on your profile page.

How Sqyre Handles Payouts for GMs

Once the session fee has been charged to players, Stripe will deposit the funds into your Stripe account. The money will then be transferred to your bank account based on your Stripe setup, with timing varying according to Stripe's automatic daily fund transfers.

When Players Are Billed

To give everyone a bit of flexibility, players are billed 30 minutes after the scheduled start time of the game.

Managing Taxes on Sqyre

For US citizens earning more than $600 a year as a pro GM on Sqyre, Stripe will send you a 1099 tax form. If you're not a US citizen or are located outside the US, you'll need to extract your payment information from Sqyre and consult your local tax laws.
