For Teams
How team management and commissions work on ROKPilots.
What Is a Team?
A team represents a piloting community — typically a Discord group that manages multiple pilots. Teams get a public profile page where buyers can browse all team pilots in one place.
Team Admin Role
Each team has a Team Adminwho manages the team's pilots, settings, and commission rate. Team Admins can:
- • Add and remove pilots from the team roster
- • Set commission rate (10% to 30% of net booking amount)
- • View team bookings and earnings
- • Update team profile, description, and Discord invite
- • Receive commission payouts via PayPal
How Commission Works
When a buyer books a team pilot, the payment is split as follows:
Commission rate is set by the Team Admin and applies to the net amount (after platform fee). Independent pilots with no team receive 100% of the net amount.
Listing Your Team
To list your piloting community on ROKPilots, contact the platform administrator. Team setup is free — there are no listing fees. Your team gets a public profile page at rokpilots.com/teams/your-team where buyers can browse your pilot roster.
Payment & Escrow
How money flows through the platform, step by step.
Buyer Pays
Payment is collected and held securely in escrow.
Pilot Works
The pilot performs the agreed-upon work on your account.
Buyer Confirms
You confirm the work is complete. Payment is released to the pilot.
Dispute (if needed)
Admin reviews evidence and decides: refund, release, or partial.
Auto-Release
If no action is taken, payment auto-releases after 48 hours.
Accepted Payments
PayPal is currently the only accepted payment method.
Platform Fee
A 5% platform fee is added to each booking, paid by the buyer. Premium members pay only 2%. If the pilot belongs to a team, the team admin receives their commission from the net amount. Pilots receive the remainder.
Pilot Payouts
Payouts are sent to the PayPal email address listed on your pilot profile. Funds are released once the buyer confirms completion or after the 48-hour auto-release window.

Trust & Safety Rules
These rules keep the marketplace safe and fair for everyone. Violations may result in account suspension or permanent ban.
- No sharing account credentials through the platform messaging system. Use the secure credential exchange provided after booking.
- All payments must go through the platform. Off-platform transactions result in an immediate permanent ban for both parties.
- Dispute evidence must be screenshots or chat logs. Claims without evidence cannot be processed.
- Pilots must maintain a 4.0+ average rating to remain active. Falling below this threshold triggers a probation period.
- Admin reserves the right to ban users for fraud, misconduct, or any behavior that undermines platform integrity.
- Reviews cannot be edited or deleted once submitted. Think carefully before posting.
- Contact information (Discord tag) is only visible after a paid booking is confirmed.
Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about the platform.
What happens if my pilot doesn't show up?
If your pilot fails to show up or start the work within the agreed timeframe, a 48-hour auto-refund timer kicks in. If the pilot does not respond or begin work within that window, your full payment is automatically refunded to your original payment method. You can also file a dispute immediately if you prefer not to wait.
Can I cancel a booking?
Yes, you can cancel a booking before the pilot begins work for a full refund. If the pilot has already started, you may need to file a dispute. Cancellations made after work has begun are reviewed on a case-by-case basis by our admin team. Buyer cancellations do not affect the pilot's completion streak.
How do I get paid as a pilot?
Pilots receive payouts directly to the PayPal email address on their profile. Once a buyer confirms completion (or the 48-hour auto-release triggers), funds are sent to your PayPal within 1-3 business days. If you belong to a team, your team admin's commission is deducted automatically before payout. Make sure your PayPal email is up to date in your profile settings.
What if I disagree with a review?
Reviews cannot be edited or deleted once submitted. If you believe a review is fraudulent or violates our guidelines (contains threats, harassment, or false claims), you can report it to our admin team for review. Legitimate negative feedback, even if you disagree with it, will remain visible.
How are pilot levels calculated?
Pilot levels are based on two factors: total completed bookings and average rating. You start as a Rookie and progress to Proven (10+ bookings, 4.0+ rating), Elite (50+ bookings, 4.5+ rating), and Legend (200+ bookings, 4.8+ rating). Both conditions must be met to reach each level. Your level is recalculated after every completed booking.
Is account piloting allowed by Lilith?
Account piloting exists in a gray area. While Lilith Games' Terms of Service discourage account sharing, piloting is a widely practiced part of the Rise of Kingdoms community. ROKPilots is an independent platform not affiliated with Lilith Games. We recommend that all users understand the risks involved and make their own informed decisions. Use this service at your own discretion.
