GuildPayroll: Gaming Team Payments
Automated payment splitting and tax tracking for esports teams and gaming content creators who play together competitively
The Problem
Gaming teams that earn prize money, sponsorships, or stream revenue have no clean way to split payments among members, track who owes what, or handle tax reporting. Most use spreadsheets, Venmo, or manual bank transfers — creating disputes, lost income tracking, and zero tax documentation.
Target Audience
Semi-pro esports teams (5-20 players), gaming content creator groups, speedrunning communities, and gaming guilds that pool earnings from tournaments, streaming revenue shares, or sponsorships
Why Now?
Gaming income is exploding and increasingly tax-scrutinized (IRS targeting unreported stream/esports earnings), while payment rails finally support fast sub-payouts through APIs
What's Missing
Existing payment apps ignore gaming's unique needs: recurring team revenue, variable contributor splits per event, and the need for 1099 tax documentation that teams actually receive from sponsors
