Frequently Asked Questions

I am not an expert, but want to bid on a project. Should I still put down an Expert Guarantee?

Seller FAQ (Frequently asked questions)
NO...do not put down a deposit because you will most likely lose it (as well as receive a poor rating). Instead bid on a project where the deadline is not as crucial (i.e there is no Expert Guarantee required). Also, make sure you are truthful to the buyer about your level of expertise. If you do this and enter arbitration, your deliverables will only be judged at performing competently at the level you claimed to be at.

How do I pay for an Expert Guarantee?

Seller FAQ (Frequently asked questions)
Once the buyer accepts your bid, you have up to 3 days to pay for an Expert Guarantee. You can use the funds in your coder account (from other jobs), or you can use any of the normal site payment methods (which are currently credit card, PayPal or a check mailed via postal mail). If you choose the latter, just remember to factor in the time required to send the payment as well as the delay of any possible security verification (if you haven't preverified or completed them already).

During this period, you can decline it with no penalty.
