Free Contra
Service Agreement
Contra is pickpocketing you twice by demanding a $40 monthly ransom while simultaneously forcing you to swallow the 3% credit card tax on every invoice. Stop paying a premium for the privilege of losing thousands of dollars in processing fees that rightfully belong in your bank account.
Pro Contractor Tip
Check your existing Contra service agreements for 'Platform Exclusivity' or 'Disintermediation' clauses to ensure you can migrate your clients to MicroFreelanceHub without triggering legacy platform penalties.
Why use a written agreement?
Handshake deals are risky. As a Contra, "scope creep" is your biggest enemy. A clear agreement ensures everyone agrees on the deliverables before money changes hands.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does MicroFreelanceHub save me more money than Contra if both have monthly fees?
Contra charges you $40/month and still makes you pay the ~3% credit card fee. MicroFreelanceHub costs less at $29/month and allows you to pass the 3.9% fee to the client, saving a freelancer billing $10k a month roughly $300 in fees alone.
Is it legal to pass the 3.9% credit card processing fee to my clients?
Yes, it is a standard business practice known as a convenience fee; MicroFreelanceHub automates this transparency so you keep 100% of your earnings while Contra leaves you to eat those costs in silence.
What happens to my take-home pay when I switch from Contra?
On Contra, your $5,000 invoice results in a ~$4,850 payout after fees. On MicroFreelanceHub, your $5,000 invoice results in a $5,000 payout because the client covers the processing cost at checkout.
