Welcome to Toucan Freelance
We are pleased to introduce our new freelance marketplace, which is designed to provide a secure and trustworthy platform for both freelancers and clients. Our primary objective is to ensure that all transactions are conducted in a safe and fraud-free environment, allowing you to focus on finding the right job or freelancer. We invite you to join us and experience the benefits of our service as we support you on your journey.
How we work
At Toucan, our approach is a little different. We work with both the Client and the Freelancer throughout the journey. Our ultimate priority is to remove the scam and fraud from the transaction.
Clients are free to submit there jobs to us, we will then review that offer and perform our due diligence to ensure that it is a genuine offer and that funds are in place to pay on either the milestone or full completion of the job. On completion of the due diligence, there is a partially refundable posting fee. If the Job is not taken up in a pre determined time period there will be a partial refund. However, once the job is complete and paid to the Freelancer a 50% refund of the fee be issued back to you.
Freelancers are free to submit the details and we will then be in contact with you see get you all set up. Once your profile is ready to go, there is a small monthly subscription to keep your profile live.
Why do we charge ? Having been through the freelance process, our experience has demonstrated that the Freelance Market sites are far to open to abuse and in most cases its the Freelance Market Site that has all the advantages leaving the clients and freelancer out of pocket.
All financials are kept within the Toucan Services so that there can be no ambiguity over price and payment. We also make this a more cost effective way to post jobs and get paid. Unlike other mainstream freelance sites, our costs are very low in comparison.
