Frequently Asked Questions
How do I reach the next fee level?
Simply complete more tasks! Your fee automatically reduces when you reach 50 tasks (Level 1: 8% fee) and 200 tasks (Level 2: 5% fee). Your progress is tracked automatically.
Are there any hidden fees?
No! Workers pay only the platform fee (10%, 8%, or 5% based on level), and clients pay only the 3% service fee. All fees are shown upfront before you confirm any payment.
When are fees deducted?
Worker fees are deducted when you receive payment for completed work. Client service fees are added to the payment amount at checkout. You always see the exact amounts before confirming.
Do fees vary by project type?
No, our fee structure is consistent across all project types and categories. The only factor that changes your fee is your completed task count (for workers).
