To Add services click on Jobs & Services, select My Services then click on the Add Services Button
You can now include your contact details for clients to reach you faster. This however, works under the following guidelines
- All freelancers under Basic membership will continue adding services at Ksh 50 per service. It is however recommended that all freelancer basic members upgrade to plus before the complete phase out of freelancer basic membership.
- All freelancers under Plus membership will continue adding services for free
N/B Services will only be displayed if the membership is active
- Each service will be allowed a maximum of 3 images
- This feature is for services only, bidding works the same way, which means freelancers are not allowed to include a contact at the bidding stage. Contacts can only be shared when the Buyer interviews you or the job is marked as a contact-allowed job.
- Since Buyers can now reach you directly, you need to exercise caution and the best way is not to start a service before the Buyer makes an order where you immediately get an alert.
- Once the order is made, you will get paid through Apexlistings for the sake of your safety. In this case we offer mediation as long as you are a verified freelancer.
- No Mediation for services started outside the platform (Without Buyer ordering your service from the platform)
Freelancers need to be as specific as possible with their services to allow Buyers find them easily. Go for the best titles and ensure your service title has at least one keyword.
