Work Terms

Payment Terms:
Fixed Price (Milestone Based): For projects with well-defined deliverables, you can break the work into milestones. Each milestone has its own due date and payment amount. This approach is great for jobs with a higher budget consideration.
Hourly: If your project requirements are evolving or need flexibility, you can set an hourly rate. Use Guru’s Time Tracker tool to accurately record billable hours and generate invoices weekly based on the hours worked.
Recurring Payments: Set up jobs as retainers with recurring payments—weekly, biweekly, monthly, or quarterly. This option is ideal for jobs with fixed payouts at predefined intervals.
Task-Based: For ad-hoc freelance work, create and assign tasks. Payments can be made for each completed.
Scope of Work:
Clearly define the deliverables for the job. This includes:
Your understanding of the project.
Your proposed solution.
Relevant files and tools.
Specific deliverables.

SafePay: Use SafePay to create transparency. The employer funds the shared account before work begins. This provides security for both parties—the employer can review work before releasing payment, and the freelancer knows that funds are available.
AutoPay: If you manage multiple invoices, enable AutoPay. With AutoPay, freelancers get paid for outstanding invoices from SafePay within an agreed-upon timeframe (7, 14, or 28 days after the invoice is issued.
