Freelancing / PLATFORM PROFILE
Fiverr
Publish a service with a defined deliverable, price, turnaround time, and revision allowance so clients can order it.
What the work is like
On Fiverr, a freelancer publishes an offer called a Gig. A client can compare packages and order a specific result, such as editing a short video or recording a voice-over. Defining file formats, revisions, and delivery time upfront helps keep an order within scope.
Earnings
Payout rule · no verified U.S. average
80% of the order amount
Fiverr credits freelancers 80% of completed order amounts, including extras and tips. A $100 completed order therefore credits $80 before taxes and your own costs. This example explains the payout rule. Actual income also depends on how often clients order and how long delivery takes.
Availability by state
Remote U.S. marketplace
Fiverr onboards U.S. freelancers online and provides a U.S. tax-status process. It does not publish a state-by-state hiring or waitlist map for remote Gigs. Check your actual location during seller verification and any location requirement in the client brief.
