getting payments after completing the order. you are in relief knowing that fiverr will help you to get your payment once submitting your order to the client.

we dont get buyer request related to our skills sometime. buyer offers less amount for big tasks.

i am earning my self through fiverr and fulfulling my basic daily life needs with the money which i am earning.

What I like most about Fiverr is that I basically work for myself; I create my own gigs, set my own pricing and delivery times, and manage my own orders. It's great for freelancing!

What I absolutely despise about Fiverr is having to wait TWO WEEKS for my money; at most, it should only take one week to clear, or maybe even only 5 days!

I don't use Fiverr to solve business problems, but I do love having the platform to sell on and make some extra money.

I really like the ease of which the site moves. Customer service is always ready to lend a hand which is great because, with the volume of people you talk to in a day, there can be some hiccups.

I don't love that you can't speak to your clients. This is inconvenient. On the other hand, sometimes it saves so much time!!! "Great But Challenging Too" is my title for a reason. Also, they take 20% of my income - even my tips.

Their reach is tremendous so, it helps me find clients.

Clients are easily found on fiverr, taking some of the hassle of marketing oneself as a freelance artist out of the equation. I also enjoyed how the website tracks the time you have left for completing a project with bug numbers that slowly tick down and the customization of the gigs is very flexible and allows for several approaches. There is also a wide variety of projects that can be purchased, almost anything can be done on fiverr.

Fiverr takes quite a big cut out of the payments, twenty-five dollars earned end up being only twenty dollars and a simple five dollar gig is effectively only four dollars. The website's layout can also be confusing, making it somewhat difficult to check up on your own gigs, or just finding the history of accomplished tasks.

I draw characters for those who are interested in having various characters drawn, although I specialize in pin-up and video game character drawing. I've accomplished some related tasks as well, such as caricatures for a birthday party, or even a logo for a gaming stream.

La plataforma es bastante conocidad y tiene un excelente trafico lo cual a un freelancer que ya tenga un buen perfil con bastastes reiews conseguir trabajos proyectos constantemente

Ya la plataforma esta satura, sobre todo de personas de la india, y si recien empiezas la página no te da la suficiente visibilidad y es muy dificil conseguir el primer proyecto.

Permite a usuarios la contración de mano de obra en diversas areas y por otra parte tambien permite a freelancer ofrecer sus serivicios a un publico ya interesando.

It presents a great number of opportunities for freelancers.

The UI UX is a bit confusing it could be intimidating for a freelancer new to such platforms.

Fiverr is giving a platform with a great many opportunities to connect freelancers to possible projects.

The ability to source short-term help for small businesses.

The Fiverr platform itself, coupled with the fees they take, is offputting.

We needed a short-term, two week solution for a financial analysis and audit issue our small business was trying to solve. Although we called recruiters, the candidates they identified were not up to the task and we had to pay commissions to the recruiters to use the talent.

You can make a little cash on the side, while practicing some skills to get a real job.

Pay rates are low compared to consulting. Generally, you'll be in the company of amateurs, both hiring and working.

Keeps my skills sharp that I don't use much in my day job, which helps me from going obsolete too quickly.

Great place to find clients! If you have a good portfolio

Unless you are a high rated talent, dont keep waiting for clients. Its filled with talents that would always get the job over you as a newbie

The problem of having to find clients yourself

I tried Fiverr it was a good platform for getting free lancing jobs but with new competitions coming in and not able to grow fast is something which is impacting the reach

It failed to adapt and penetrative other markets where it could have gown a lot but I am sure it will bounce back in this competitive environment that is growing day by day in India

I had a hobby of designing and was looking for more work to do but with the regular work it was difficult yet Fiverr provided a platform that helped me pursue my aspiration as part time projects

I joined Fiverr to find more writing clients and created elaborate gigs for the same. Despite getting impressions, I never got any work from it. It is sad because no matter how good you are, Fiverr doesn't show the same love. Moreover, it is filled with $5 "freelancers" who are undermining their own value.

Fiverr doesn't allow you to apply to projects. You are just a sitting duck waiting for someone to knock on your door and that rarely happens. Even if you get a message, it is usually from scamsters posing as US clients. Fiver is no place for a beginner because it only values pros who made their profile like ten years ago.

Fiverr is an absolute waste of time. It is better to do cold outreach than spend time on the platform. Despite creating good gigs, and offering great services, clients don't come. It is nothing more than a $5 platform to me.

I been using this app as a freelancer and I really make the most of having new graphic challenges as a freelance, I have several gigs in different things and I enjoy these challenges.

I cant switch between being a seller or a buyer / client, a lot of bugs.

a lot of bugs, a lot spam messages

It change the life of a small business, it gives a chance to everyone to freelance across the globe. It also has changed the way Small Business Enterprises operate and communicate. Fiver could not have been convenient in everyday evolving business.

Payment deduction up to 20% make it less if possible. Also had a gig and been checking every few days interest, and i did not received any notification or message, but when i click on my inbox and i saw i had some messages like 5 days before, there was no indications totally ruined my interest.

We earn money by giving service to business, and its great

I like that you can reach a broad audience of people quickly.

Well, there's a lot of work that goes into pitching yourself to each person. I would say the return on investment to get started is too much work. It would be better if they only gave a buyer a handful of options to start with for their first projects it would give newer people to the system a chance to prove themselves quickly with small projects.

It is a nice side hussle if you can make it work, but the time investment to get it going isn't worth it if your business is already doing well on it's own.

It's a simple platform to create your own business module for potential clients to review.

Too much competition, charging little to free work. Personally Fiverr is useful for those who are beginners to their field not for legit professionals

NONE....Their is no benefit spending countless hours submitting content for people to come just to work with someone who will literally charge $5 overall for their service.

The platform allows users to offer and request any kind of tasks for very low prices; which is great because if you don't know how to do something or you want to learn about a specific topic, you can pay someone who knows a minimum of $5 (a price set by the seller) and voila! You can sell your services (gigs) for a minimum price of $5; and you can literally buy or sell anything. Pictures, lessons, videos, designs, music, cooking recipes, memes,... As a seller, you get to design your gig, by stating what you offer, the price you want to charge, the time of delivery and so many other aspects, and you can post a picture designed by you, to make it more catchy and personalized.

My personal experience on Fiverr isn't good. I've been trying to sell my services as a general translator for over a year 1000 words for $5 for over a year, without any positive result. There are many people, who've been on the website for years selling the same thing I offer; but, since they're now popular and have been reviewed by their buyers, new buyers always choose them, which means new users, or users with no reviews have it hard to sell their gigs :-( I recently posted another gig, offering lessons via Skype to improve Spanish and English pronunciation (since I'm a Spanish native speaker and an English teacher), but I'm still waiting for my first buyer. I really hope I can start selling on Fiverr so I can see what else the site has to offer.

None, so far. But it's just a matter of selling my first gig. I know friends who offer their services on the website and have been able to make some money.

I really liked the interface, it's all very welcoming and easy to use. very accessible for both buyers and sellers. I found it aesthetically pleasing but this may be due to the fact it seemed very similar to People per hour in its functions and interface.

I know there are many people who do turn a profit on this platform but personally, this really isn't for me. Again, this might be due to the fact I descovered it around the same time I started using PPH and judging from the business I got through both, PPH seemed to win out by a long shot.

The premise of offering lots of little jobs for a fiver and trying to up sell all the more quality work I do, seems tedious to me. It might be a business model that works for some people but I feel like I would be wasting time by trying to do lots of little jobs and trying to accumulate the money for a profit.

Relatively cheaper than other competitors

very low-quality freelancers and UI/UX is also not good, not many varieties of the freelancers

Find freelancers across the world and can find freelancers in very low price

I love the way profiles are laid out and all the information on them. I think the workstreams are really organised and tidy, as well as easy to access and understand. It's very modern and smooth, communicating with other people was seamless, and I felt like this was an exceptionally underrated platform when I first started using it.

It takes two weeks to get paid. It's a ridiculous amount of time. After the customer confirms payment, you then wait for the payment to go through, and then an extra two weeks on top of that. Once you level up it only takes seven days, but that is still too long. other platforms provide instant payment and you can have the money in your account the same day. This is no way to run a platform for freelancers; we need to eat and pay bills too.

Fiverr helped me find a couple of new customers, which was nice, but I haven't found any benefits aside from the nice layout and easy navigation.

I like the way Fiverr has grown in size and lots of people found it useful to make money and some millionaires are made here. It is non-traditional Website.

Only reason to dislike is there are no ways for newbies to get projects because the older and Experienced ones get projects and everyone prefer such kind of Freelancers. For newbies they only get disappointed.

I don't think of any benefits from Fiverr till now.

I can't say I found much to like about Fiverr. I think the tools are basic and not conducive to bringing in new work.

Very challenging to engage with new clients. They don't want you to communicate with potential clients outside of the platform but offer no video conference option to meet with clients unless the parties have already entered into an engagement. Very difficult to get the data you need upfront before committing to a client.

Fiverr was not able to help me find more business. Would not recommend it.

You can get simple tasks that require no skill at low cost.

It's a race to the bottom. Almost impossible to sort out the talent from the masses.

Webpage design, graphics, writing some articles.

I have had a horrible experience with Fiverr. It hosts a lot of scammers. Most freelancers are not professional, and if the work done by freelancers does not meet your criteria, don't expect Fiverr to refund your money. They take a cut from scammers and allow them to scam on their platform.

If you are serious about your project, don't go on Fiverr for your own sake. You are better off with Digital Agencies that have years of experience and know how to do their job effectively.

We posted a project on Fiverr, and the freelancers did a terrible job; we contacted Fiverr customer support and they simply refused to refund the funds. We had to issue a chargeback by contacting the bank.

Support is always available and answered fast. It's a great idea and awsome service for freelancers to get there name and services out in the world.

It's an incredible feeling when a client reaches out to you with genuine excitement after seeing the examples of your previous work. From the conversation and their inquiries, I could tell that things were off to a promising start. To further solidify the partnership, I even offered a substantial discount. However, the moment Mahima realized that I was a black man, all communication and progress came to an abrupt halt. Unfortunately, this is a recurring experience for me, so I decided to remove my picture and replace it with a logo, inadvertently adhering to an unwritten rule: not revealing my race to clients. Curiosity got the better of me, so I conducted an experiment. I created a second account with a non-black male profile, offering the same services and utilizing the same algorithms. The results were astonishing. Someone from a different racial group would have been treated more favorably, and Mahima would have likely purchased my services. Despite offering the same gig at a 90% discount, there was no changing Mahima's mind. This incident constitutes clear racist abuse and direct discrimination, which I am determined to report. While the platform is generally satisfactory, it is plagued by an overwhelming influx of spam accounts that bombard me daily, surpassing a dozen messages per day. If I don't report or block them, my response rate percentage plummets. Moreover, if no one solicits my services for a month or so, the site disables my gigs without warning, requiring me to reactivate them manually. On top of that, they even delete gigs without any valid reasons. It's disheartening that they fail to address these issues when I reached out to them, responding with pre-written messages that sidestep my concerns and promptly closing the request when I called them out on it.

Offer our services for sale to customers and business clients

I guess that a lazy uncreative person can find bad quality designs to use...

How It cheapens the arts and is ruining design and creativity with cookie cutter results.

None. It's garbage. I'd rather pay my child to make something

Lots of options, in terms of sellers, for whatever it is you might be looking for.

Too pushy - the payment flow just gets up in your face and pressures the shit out of you to close the transaction now now now now. Time - no contractor I've employed has ever finished by the delivery date. Too expensive. Every seller posts their tiers for pricing, and not one single seller I've ever contacted has quoted a price within that tier. Every seller I contacted just wants to "milk the cow dry." This has happened to me in 100% of all interactions with fiverr contractors - I've since deleted my account and won't be coming back.

Can't think of a single one.

Nothing is good. Don't buy any gig in here.

Don't buy any gig in here. You may end up being blocked from the website just by opening a few tabs. I have just deactivated my account. Fiverr blocked me twice as I was trying to put on my next order and I was searching for a freelancer. I will put my order on freelancer.com

Nothing solved

Used the platform for several years did not have any issues till last month. But after the case that happened to me would never recommend using fiverr again as they have very bad support that ignores you and do not try to help in order to keep their commission

The business support keep using general messages when I have issue with the seller that provided the product which is not working at all. They did not even tried to help while keep playing a ping pong game changing all CS and asking for extra tasks that I have already given. The seller pushed me to make a fast confirmation of the product while not testing properly on my side (partially was my fault). The product does not work as specified and I proved that to the fiverr team but still they keep ignoring messeges and the seller ignores me. Poor service/team and the company. Will never use fiverr again and DO NOT recommend to use them to anyone. Stay away as scammers and poor support will never benefit you and your business

Did not solve any issue that recently arised with the order. They just closed the ticket and wished good luck talking to the seller and the seller ignores my messages as well. This is business CS imagine what will happen to a regular accounts

**I paid Rs **₹8,186.97 for an order which was never executed. The refund I received is only Rs 5575.68. What happened to Rs 2611.29, almost USD 35? Is it the Fiverr fees through the seller for the cheating client?

Deception. Extracting money, not doing the job, and refunding partially

I wanted to format a book for KDP Amazon but it did not do it and kept a major chunk of fees paid in advance.
