How to hire a freelance professional

Hiring a freelancer for a project

IMPORTANT: Every project you post is verified before making it accessible for freelancers to apply. Notice that including a mobile phone number or an email in project description will render it invalid and will therefore be declined.
TIP: Always request for an update of the project before you settle the payment for an invoice. Again, any payment made to the freelancer is non-refundable. We entreat you to inspect the progress of the job before making any payment. Payment will be transferred to the freelancer shortly after we receive it. Many at times, freelancers will request for payment based on the divisions of the project as in finishing one task and charging for that before moving to the next task. That is usually referred to as a Milestone.
