Free Upwork
Service Agreement
Upwork is pickpocketing your profit by charging a monthly subscription and then forcing you to eat the 3% processing fee on every single invoice. Stop paying for the privilege of losing your own hard-earned money to a platform that double-dips on your hustle.
Pro Contractor Tip
Check your existing Upwork contracts for 'non-circumvention' clauses to ensure you transition your long-term clients to MicroFreelanceHub only after the mandatory platform period has expired.
Why use a written agreement?
Handshake deals are risky. As a Upwork, "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 Upwork?
Upwork forces you to pay for a subscription and deducts processing fees from your pay; we allow you to pass the 3.9% fee to the client so you keep every dollar of your project rate.
What is the 'Pass-Through Fee' toggle?
It is a simple switch that adds the 3.9% Stripe processing fee to your client's total, ensuring you receive 100% of your invoice amount without the platform taking a cut of your principal.
Is there a catch to the free tier?
No catch. You can manage your first 3 projects with all features for free; once you see the savings from passing fees to your clients, you can upgrade to unlimited projects for just $29/month.
