What does it mean to bid on a job?
Apply for a remote job through Incluzion is no different that applying for a job on any other job board. However applying for a freelance job on Incluzion requires you to "bid" or submit a fee for the work requested based on your standard rate and the financial budget presented by the client.
I don’t see any opportunities where I live. How can I find something near me?
If you’re looking for local work then Incluzion's remote job board or freelance marketplace may not be the best fit for you. But if you're able to work remotely or digitally then be sure to check back often and subscribe to our jobs newsletter.
How am I paid?
When the client selects you for a job they’re prompted to pay the agreed fee into an escrow held by Incluzion until the client marks the job as complete. After the job is marked complete, the balance is transferred to your account and is available to be disbursed to your bank account through Paypal or Cashapp.
After completing a project or milestone in the freelance marketplace, how long does it take for the balance to be distributed to my bank account?
It typically takes 24 hours after the client’s payment has cleared with us to initiate a disbursement to the freelancer.
