Easy way to work as a freelancer I use Workmarket as a work logging / payment system (instead of a work sourcing platform) and find it very useful. It's relatively straightforward to use, and payments - once approved - are paid into my PayPal account quite quickly (usually the same day). Not many of my clients use Workmarket, but I would happily use it for all my jobs. The only thing that lets it down is the fact it only uses dollars. A pound (GBP) option would be handy. If there is already an option I can't find it!

Disastrous product Disastrous product, full of bugs. I do not understand, how in 2022 such a product can exist. Simple freelancer sign-up process takes days because of a series of mysterious "unexpected errors" and bugs that the support agents themselves don't know about. Their support staff also takes long or otherwise doesn't follow instructions well. Once you do get into the system after manual assistance, changing your personal details will yet again trigger "internal server errors." If paying freelancers, stay away from WorkMarket. Your time is better spent elsewhere than helping these morons debug their systems. I'm genuinely appalled at the sheer incompetency of this product.

WorkMarket not responding about long payment delays WorkMarket not responding about long payment delays. I as well as others I know of have had their funds lost in limbo for 7 days now. 2 of these that I know of are over $3,000 each. Mine personally has been an ongoing position for almost 3 years with only one other glitch but it was fixed in 1 day. The buyer has approved the payment WorkMarket has some kind of glitch going on but will not even respond to the techs. The buyer has tried to contact them but they just gets generic responses stating that they are working on it. When the techs call they get a recording that states that no agents are available to call back later. or if some does answer they just tell you the developement team is working on it.

I have been using this platform for 3+… I have been using this platform for 3+ years without issue. I do use others, and without naming them, WorkMarket outperforms the competitors in that the freelancer stands to make the most because fees are not generally the freelancer's responsibility. Yes, it does vary, but 98% of the fees are covered by the buyer. The support staff offers assistance in most cases and although they tend to favor a buyer, they do try for an amicable and beneficial resolution towards the freelancer.

Reverse Robin Hood: Robbing the Needy to give to the Rich After a decade of working on the platform WorkMarket has suddenly decided to automatically take 5% from every technicians work order to provide access to "thousands of work opportunities" as if that wasn't what they'd been doing the last nine years. So now not only are my clients not encouraged to update pay rates to reflect shifting economic conditions but WorkMarket helps themselves to my money and abuses technicians in the favor of vendors instead. Don't expect anyone in your corner in spite of technicians being the lifeblood of the platform. ADP takeover was one of the worst things that has happened to WorkMarket.
