Frequently asked questions
Quick answers about finding opportunities, offering your talent, hiring and selling on OpportunityPilot.
General
What is OpportunityPilot?
OpportunityPilot helps you find verified scholarships, jobs, grants and fellowships, track your applications, learn practical skills, offer your talent, hire talent and sell your own products and courses, all in one place.
Is it free to join?
Yes. Creating an account, browsing opportunities, saving listings and using the application workspace are free. Some premium learning resources, courses and events may be paid.
Do I need an account?
You can browse without one. An account lets you save opportunities, get reminders and matches, build a talent or client profile, enrol in courses and sell.
How do you check that opportunities are real?
Each listing links to its official source and carries a verification note. We never ask applicants to pay us to apply. Read our Scam safety page before sending money to anyone.
How do I contact support?
Use the Contact page. Include the page link and, for payments, your payment reference so we can help quickly.
Opportunities
How do I find opportunities that fit me?
Complete your profile (nationality, education level, interests). Your matches and the "Open to you" markers use it. You can also filter by type, funding and deadline.
Can I get deadline reminders?
Yes. Save an opportunity, then set a reminder in the Application workspace. You can also turn on email and push alerts.
Where do I apply?
Always on the official website of the provider. We link to it from every listing so you never apply through a third party.
What does "Check eligibility" mean?
The listing does not state which nationalities can apply. Open the official source and confirm before you start.
Talent and hiring
How do I get hired on the platform?
Create a talent profile with your headline, skills, rate and portfolio, then publish it. Clients can find you and contact you, and you can send proposals to open gigs.
How do I hire someone?
Create a client profile, post a gig or browse talent, shortlist the best fits and contact them. You can also ask us to hire on your behalf.
Does it cost anything to be listed?
A basic talent profile is free. Optional paid plans unlock extra visibility and limits, shown on the Pricing page.
Selling
Who can sell on OpportunityPilot?
Any registered member. Open a store, add digital products, physical products or courses, and share your own store link.
How much does it cost to sell?
There is no monthly fee. We keep 10% of each sale (your store may have a custom rate). You keep the rest.
How and when do I get paid?
Your earnings build up in your seller balance. Add your payout account, then request a payout once you reach the minimum (5,000 NGN). Payouts are processed by us, automatically through Paystack where available or manually.
Which currencies can I sell in?
You set each price in your chosen currency. Buyers see the price converted into the currency of their country, and you are credited in your own currency.
Can I run Facebook or TikTok ads to my store?
Yes. Paste your Meta Pixel, TikTok Pixel or Google tag ID in Store settings and we add the tracking code to your store and product pages. See the Integrations page for step-by-step guides.
How are my videos protected?
Course videos play inside a protected player that checks enrolment, hides the video link from the page and shows the student's email as a watermark. Use unlisted YouTube videos.
Can I sell physical products?
Yes. Add stock, a shipping fee and where you ship to. You see your customers and orders in your seller dashboard.
Payments
What payment methods do you accept?
Cards and bank payments through Paystack, and bank transfer with receipt approval where the administrator has enabled it.
Why do I see prices in a different currency?
Prices are shown in the currency of your country when we support it, otherwise in US dollars. You can switch currency from the footer.
My payment went through but I have no access.
Wait a minute and refresh. If it persists, contact support with your payment reference. Manual transfers are activated after the receipt is approved.
Courses
How do courses work?
Enrol (free or paid), then watch lessons in order or jump around. Your progress is saved and you can resume where you stopped.
Do I keep access after I pay?
Yes. Paid courses give you lasting access unless the course is withdrawn.
Can I preview a course?
Many courses mark some lessons as free previews. Look for the preview tag on the course page.
