Frequently asked questions

What is Xwork's client service fee and how is it calculated?

Clients pay a flat 2% service fee on all payments you make to freelancers for fixed-price contracts. The fee is added to your payment at the time you fund a milestone.

How much does a freelancer pay?

Freelancers pay a 10% service fee on their earnings. There are no membership or upfront costs to start finding work on Xwork.

Are there any other fees?

No. There are no hidden charges, no contract initiation fees, and no upfront costs to join. You only pay the service fee when money changes hands.

Do I need to verify my identity?

Clients do not need to complete identity verification to post jobs and hire. Freelancers complete a one-time identity verification so they can get paid securely.

What payment methods do you accept?

You can pay with major credit and debit cards. Available options may vary based on your location and will be shown at checkout.

When do I pay the service fee?

For clients, the 2% fee is applied each time you fund or release a payment. For freelancers, the 10% fee is deducted from each payment you receive.

How does Xwork make money?

Xwork earns revenue through service fees on both sides of the marketplace — 2% for clients and 10% for freelancers. That's it. No hidden charges.
