Tips to Maximise Your Earnings

  • Give your best solutions

    Users return to mentors who genuinely solve their problems. More return sessions = more time billed = more earnings.

  • Be supportive and patient

    A supportive mentoring style keeps sessions longer and users more engaged, directly increasing your time-based pay.

  • Ensure high ratings

    Consistently rated 4★ and above unlocks bonus payment tiers. Ratings are based on session quality and user satisfaction.

  • Stay active and consistent

    The more hours you mentor each week, the higher your cumulative earnings. Active mentors are also prioritised in search results.

Exact earnings rates and bonus thresholds are shown in your mentor dashboard. Rates may be updated by HiLink from time to time.
