Affiliate disclosure

Short answer

GigBuyerGuide is an independent publisher, not owned or operated by Fiverr. It is a Fiverr affiliate partner (Fiverr Promoter) and earns commissions if you buy through links on its pages. The commission is paid by Fiverr out of its own revenue; you pay the listed price plus Fiverr's normal buyer fee, nothing more. Paid links and advertising units are labelled so you can tell them apart from editorial links.

Key takeaways

  • GigBuyerGuide is an independent publisher, not owned or operated by Fiverr, and a Fiverr affiliate partner (Fiverr Promoter).
  • Links marked Paid link and units marked Advertisement can earn the site a commission when you buy on Fiverr.
  • You pay the same price whether you arrive through this site or go to Fiverr directly.
  • Commissions are paid by Fiverr on a buyer's first qualifying order and, for Fiverr Pro, on the first Pro order.
  • Commission rates never affect what is recommended or how it is ranked.

The relationship with Fiverr

Independent publisher, not owned or operated by Fiverr. We are a Fiverr affiliate partner (Fiverr Promoter) and earn commissions if you buy through links on this page. That sentence appears on every page that contains an affiliate link, above the first such link.

The affiliate program is run by Fiverr through a third-party tracking platform. When you click a link marked “Paid link” or a banner marked “Advertisement”, you pass through a short redirect on this site and land on Fiverr with a tracking parameter. If you then make a qualifying purchase, Fiverr credits this site with a commission.

What is paid

Fiverr’s affiliate program pays a percentage of a new buyer’s first order on the Fiverr marketplace, a higher percentage of a new buyer’s first Fiverr Pro order, a fixed amount for Fiverr Logo Maker purchases and a share of earnings from publishers referred to the affiliate program. Each of these has a cap per order. Rates and caps are set by Fiverr and change from time to time; the current terms are on Fiverr’s affiliate site.

What it costs you

Nothing. The price you pay on Fiverr is the same whether you arrive from this site, from a search engine or by typing the address. Fiverr pays the commission from its own share of the transaction. This site does not offer promo codes or discounts, and Fiverr’s affiliate terms do not allow it to.

  • Inline links to Fiverr gigs, categories, Fiverr Pro and the Logo Maker are followed by a small “Paid link” label.
  • Buttons such as “See on Fiverr” carry the same label.
  • Banners and the gig widget carry an “Advertisement” label.
  • Links to other pages on this site, and to third-party sites that are not Fiverr, are plain editorial links and earn nothing.

Every affiliate link uses rel=“sponsored nofollow” so search engines treat it as paid.

How the money affects the content

It does not. The editorial policy and methodology explain the rules: shortlists are built by fixed criteria, Fiverr Pro is recommended only where it serves the buyer, and alternatives are covered honestly even when they earn the site nothing. If a guide tells you not to use Fiverr for a job, that costs the site a possible commission, and it will still say so.

Other income

At the time of writing, GigBuyerGuide has no other source of income. It does not run display ad networks, sell data or accept sponsored content. If that changes, this page will be updated first.
