Here’s what you can do to vet your clients:

• Make sure to have Face-to-face interaction
• Do a background check with your freelancing community

Make sure to also trust your instincts. If something feels off, it's okay to walk away

Ironclad Contracts

Craft bulletproof contracts with explicit terms.

Clearly outline deliverables, timelines, payment schedules, and consequences for breaches. Never start the work without a signed contract.

• Talk about timelines
• Talk about how you”ll get paid
• Talk about what will happen if contract is broken

Milestone Payments

Divide project into milestones and request payment upon completion of each.

This phase approach secures regular income and minimizes the risk of total loss.

Most of our users take 50% of the payment in advance and the rest 50% is delivered once the work is done!

Clear Communication

Establish regular communication channels and make sure to keep records of all exchanges.

Misunderstandings often lead to disputes; clear communication can prevent them.

Not only that, in the case of a breach of the payment terms, you can take the necessary action if you have sufficient receipts.
