/ 02 — How it works
One portal, four moves.
Replaces a half-dozen spreadsheets, four Telegram chats, and one tired finance person. Documented, encrypted, recoverable.
Read the full guide- 01
Register & apply
Pick a track, fill the form. We collect what we need — full name, residency, contact — and nothing else. Marketing opt-in is genuinely optional.
- Email + password (argon2id)Country & address for taxTrack-specific questions
- 02
Review & chat
Moderators open a private chat on submission. Most decisions land in 24 hours — the rest within three working days.
- Live chat with moderatorsNo ATS black-holeWithdrawal at any time

Onboard with the right surface
Volunteers receive an internal balance only. Paid roles unlock a salary account, an internal account, and any issued credentials (CRM, social accounts, sales).
- Automatic account provisioningCurator assignmentCredentials handover (encrypted)
- 04
Get paid, or spend internally
Withdraw to bank, card, BTC, ETH, USDT (TRC/ERC), TON — or move into your internal balance and pay Phylex bills with zero processor cost.
- 6+ payment railsWithdrawal status trackingReceipts attached on payout
/ 03 — Your dashboard
Two accounts.
No surprises.
Your salary account is for take-home cash. Your internal account is for credit you keep inside Phylex — to renew servers, top up a project, or pay a teammate. Move between them at zero cost.
- Withdraw to bank, card, BTC, ETH, USDT (TRC/ERC), TON
- Move salary → internal with no fees, no minimums
- Every transaction has a reason, actor, and receipt
- Statements export to CSV for your accountant
Monthly accrual
/ 04 — Open roles
Pick a track.
Six active tracks. The application form adapts to each, asking only what we need.
/ 05 — Payouts
Eight rails. One ledger.
You pick the rail when you create a payment method; you pick which payment method to use at withdrawal time. Reveal of full details is gated, logged, and reasoned.

/ 06 — Compared to
Versus the alternative.
"The alternative" meaning the spreadsheet-plus-Telegram setup almost every small hosting team grows out of by year two.
| Feature | Phylex Careers | Typical alternative |
|---|---|---|
| Application review SLA | <24h median | 1–4 weeks |
| Payroll status visibility | Live ledger | Email, maybe |
| Internal credit | Yes, zero fee | Not offered |
| Crypto payouts | BTC, ETH, USDT, TON | Rarely |
| Encrypted at-rest payment data | AES-256-GCM, dual key | Plaintext or SaaS |
| Audit log on reveal | Required reason | None |
| Curator per worker | 1-to-1 by default | Slack channel |
| Cost to apply | Free, no résumé fee | Free… but black-hole |
/ 07 — Review
From apply to onboarded.
Our median, not best-case. Edge cases (visa coordination, security-cleared roles) run longer and we'll tell you up front.
T+0
Submission received
Application enters the moderator queue. Chat room is provisioned automatically.
T+1h
First moderator response
A real person — not an autoresponder — opens the chat and confirms what's missing.
T+6h
Reference check (paid roles)
We may ping a former colleague or a public portfolio. Always with notice.
T+23h
Decision
Approval, rejection (with reason), or a request for one clarification. Median across 2024.
T+24h
Onboarding
Accounts provisioned, curator assigned, any issued credentials delivered.
/ 08 — Why us
Built like the back office it replaces.
/ 09 — What you can expect
No quotes. Just what's in the box.
We don't ship anonymous testimonials — they're lazy proof. Instead, here is what we will hold ourselves to.
Honest comp bands
Published, defended, raised inside the band when the work warrants it.
Median 23h review
From submission to a yes / no / one-question.
Receipt-or-it-didn't-happen
Every payout closes with an attached receipt.
Curator, not a queue
A real human in your chat from week one.
Zero processor cut
Network fees pass through at cost. We don't take a slice.
Tax-friendly statements
CSV export of the ledger ready for your accountant.
/ 10 — Perks
What you get when you're in.
Hosting credits
Every approved worker gets monthly Phylex hosting credits on the internal account.
Volunteer thanks
Volunteers get the same credits as paid roles for community-facing contributions.
Flexible hours
Async-first by default. Synchronous only when a customer is on fire.
Dedicated curator
1-to-1 mentor inside the dashboard from week one.
Honest receipts
Every payout, every accrual — attached files inside the ledger.
Tax-friendly
CSV statements ready for your accountant. We don't pretend to be one.
Secure by default
2FA-ready, session ledger, revoke-all in one click if a device is lost.
Internal marketplace
Spend internal balance on Phylex services with zero processor fees.
/ 11 — Honest questions
