Nook’s note

Freelancer.com applies a percentage or minimum fee to fixed-price projects. Keep the minimum editable because the official amount is stated in USD and account currency can differ.

How the calculation works

Plan for both the percentage and minimum fee

Freelancer.com states that standard freelancers pay 10% of the project value or USD 5, whichever is greater, on fixed-price projects. The standard hourly-project fee is 10% on each payment.

Core formulaProject value − max(project value × fee percentage, minimum fee) − other entered costs = estimated earnings

Use the correct minimum in your currency

The official minimum is expressed in US dollars. If you calculate in another currency, enter the equivalent minimum shown by the platform or converted for your planning date.

Separate optional costs

Withdrawal methods, payment processing, memberships, bid upgrades, taxes, contests, and special programs can follow separate rules. Add only the fixed costs that apply to your situation.
