The Non-Circumvention policy is vital for using VPM Solutions, ensuring all work and payments are tracked through the platform to protect both you and your clients. This guide explains the policy and how to stay compliant.
Key Steps to Follow:
-
Always Receive Payments Through the Platform
- As a virtual assistant, you must process all payments for services provided via the VPM Solutions platform. Requesting payments outside of the platform violates the Non-Circumvention policy.
- If a client suggests paying you directly (e.g., via PayPal, bank transfer), kindly remind them of this policy.
-
Avoid Off-Platform Contracts
- Any new work arrangement with clients you met through VPM Solutions must be handled within the platform. This includes negotiations, contracts, and services.
- If you had a prior relationship with the client outside VPM Solutions, make sure to inform the platform in advance.
-
Penalties for Circumvention
- If you violate the Non-Circumvention policy, you may face penalties, such as:
- A fine of $1,000 for requesting payments outside the platform.
- Permanent banning from the platform.
- If you violate the Non-Circumvention policy, you may face penalties, such as:

- If a client encourages you to violate this policy or if you're unsure about any aspect, contact VPM Solutions' support immediately for guidance.
Conclusion: Following these steps ensures that you remain compliant with VPM Solutions' Non-Circumvention policy. Always handle payments and contracts on the platform for your protection and long-term success.
