Microlancer is a platform which allows freelancers to create a virtual shopfront for small services across a wide range of the creative spectrum. Freelance services offered to buyers could be anything from photo retouching and logo design to WordPress plug-in development or coding an email newsletter.

It’s an excellent virtual shopping experience for small creative services. Buyers choose a service they want from a service provider they like. They can see everything upfront. From price to turnaround time to number of revisions to work samples. They’ll know exactly what they’re getting, no surprises. When they’re happy to proceed, we’ll facilitate the transaction from start to finish.

When you pay for a job, the money is not immediately transferred to the Service Provider. Instead, it stays in a holding account until the job is completed, at which point the funds are released. If you’re not happy with the Service Provider’s work, and a Microlancer team member upholds your complaint, payment will be returned to you in full. This system ensures that Service Providers are always paid if they do good work, and that buyers can always be refunded if they don’t receive what they were promised.

The whole process is pretty simple, fast and fun. I personally like it very much and will continue using Microlancer in the future.
