Question 1

How fast is my assignment live?

Accepted Answer

The moment you hit publish. There's no intake call and no approval round: describe it, set a budget, publish.

Question 2

How many assignments can I run at once?

Accepted Answer

On the free Starter plan, up to 4 active assignments at a time. On Growth (€149 per month) it's unlimited.

Question 3

What if nobody responds?

Accepted Answer

Adjust your description or budget. Assignments with a concrete scope and a market-rate amount usually get responses within 48 hours.

Question 4

Can I still change the budget?

Accepted Answer

Yes, as long as you haven't accepted anyone yet. After that the amount is locked in escrow.

Question 5

What does posting an assignment cost?

Accepted Answer

Nothing. Posting is free; a 5% service fee applies to the amount paid out.

Question 6

When is that 5% charged?

Accepted Answer

Only on payout through Jobberd. If you never pay anyone out, you pay nothing.

Question 7

What exactly is escrow?

Accepted Answer

As soon as you accept someone, Stripe holds the amount. The money only reaches the professional after you approve the delivery.

Question 8

Can I cancel monthly?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The Growth subscription ends at the close of the current month, with no notice period.

Question 9

How do I filter out weak responses?

Accepted Answer

Set screening questions per assignment. Only those who answer them reach your inbox.

Question 10

What do I see about someone before I choose?

Accepted Answer

Name, field and reviews from earlier assignments — plus sample work on marketplace assignments. You can ask follow-up questions in the chat.

Question 11

And if the delivered work isn't right?

Accepted Answer

You don't approve it and ask for a revision. If you can't work it out, you open a dispute and Jobberd mediates. The amount stays in escrow in the meantime.

Question 12

Can I re-engage the same professional?

Accepted Answer

Yes, with no limits. Many companies post a new assignment aimed at someone whose earlier work was good.
