HOW IT IS APPLIED

One calculation, visible to both sides.

Before acceptance

The applicable fee breakdown is shown with the project terms before either party commits.

During the contract

The accepted policy version is recorded with the contract, so later pricing changes do not rewrite agreed amounts.

Payout thresholds

Hourly earnings below the release threshold remain attributable to the freelancer and accumulate until they can be released.

Refunds and reversals

Approved refunds show the principal and corresponding fee reversals as separate entries.

Prices are displayed in the contract currency. Taxes or approved provider adjustments, when applicable, are itemised separately before confirmation. See the marketplace terms.
