Platform and channel responsibilities
GetPressCard connects applicants with news organisations. Jobs and channel-issued IDs are decided and issued by the listed news organisation. Platform-managed offers are labelled separately; a GetPressCard membership ID is private membership identification, not government identification or government press accreditation. Payment never guarantees selection or a card.
Eligibility & truthful applications
You must be at least 18, provide accurate information and submit genuine documents. Channels must own or be authorised to represent the organisation and must describe their eligibility criteria, fees, work terms and refund policy accurately. Forged IDs, impersonation, misleading recruitment and misuse of documents are prohibited.
Fees & refunds
One-time applicant and channel registration fees, if enabled, are shown during registration and before checkout. Each application fee is shown on its listing. Channel-managed fees go to that channel’s account; labelled platform-managed listing fees go to the platform account. Paying a fee does not guarantee acceptance, employment or an ID. To request a platform registration refund, contact support@getpresscard.com with your payment reference for review. Application refund requests must be addressed to the listed issuer under its displayed policy, including the platform for platform-managed listings. Refunds are processed manually by the relevant payment account owner; the platform has no automatic refund button.
Moderation & disputes
Admins may suspend misleading accounts and close listings. Contact support to report a problem. Platform review does not replace your own assessment of a channel. For channel fees and recruitment decisions, the receiving channel remains responsible.
Operator information
The operator must publish its legal business name, address, support contacts, final refund timelines and applicable terms before taking live payments.
Published refund process
Contact the receiving issuer with your application and payment reference to request a refund under the listing’s displayed policy. Platform registration refund requests go to platform support. Refunds are reviewed and processed manually by the receiving payment account owner.
