Q: I want to become a QC! Do I have to apply for QC status?

A: Nope! Once you reach the threshold for a tier, you’ll automatically be introduced into the new tier and have access to the respective benefits.

Q: How long are my QC benefits valid for?

A: QC benefits are valid for 6 months. Users must create 500 subtitles or segments within that 6 months in order to be considered active and to maintain QC status. If the requirements for activity are not met, QC status will be “frozen” and can be accessed once the contribution requirements are met.

Q: How can I track my progress?

A: Your contribution counts, as well as your progress as a QC, can be found on your dashboard page, look on the left-side for more information.

Q: Do I get Viki Pass benefits as QC Trainee?

A: QC Trainees cannot access Viki Pass exclusives, as they do not yet have Viki Pass benefits. In order for a Contributor to access Viki Pass exclusive titles, users must either be a QC or a Gold QC.
