The contestants do get paid, but it has not been disclosed on how much they get paid! I do know that on American Idol once you make it into the Top 12, you are required to join the performers' union AFTRA (The American Federation of Television and Radio Artists). As members of AFTRA, contestants must be paid the minimum hourly rate for a TV performer. AFTRA's last reported minimum wage rate was $921 per hour!!
It's not widely known how much the Splash contestants get paid per episode. One site described it as a stipend and one contestant called it a big fat cheque. The more weeks the contestant stays on, the more he or she will earn.
Yes, the money contestants win is very much real. Contestants are paid their winnings by check 90-120 days after the show airs.
20 bucks each date
They don't compete for anything, beyond bragging rights - each week's pair of strangers put in the time simply to say they survived (and, presumably, to earn their appearance fees.)
A penny for every bug bite
