How hiring through Fiverr.ie works

A plain how-to, a rates benchmark, and a shortlist service. We don't run a marketplace, take a commission, or host freelancer profiles — we're the editorial layer that sits in front of them.

We shortlist Irish freelancers

We match your brief to two or three independent Irish freelancers whose rate band, availability and specialism fit. You deal with them directly — quote, contract, payment, everything.

What we will — and won't — do

We will

Shortlist two or three Irish freelancers whose rate band, availability and specialism fit your brief. Reply to every enquiry within 48 hours. Keep the rate guide honest. Flag when a service is cheaper done through an agency than a freelancer, and vice versa.

We won't

Pretend to be Fiverr.com. Take a booking fee from you. Resell your data to a freelance marketplace. Publish sponsored listings styled as editorial. Recommend any freelancer we haven't actually corresponded with.

The disclaimer

Fiverr.ie is an independent Irish site. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or connected to Fiverr International Ltd. or Fiverr.com. We don't operate their platform, we're not a Fiverr reseller, and we don't share your data with them. See about and disclosure.
