How to get started on Fiverr

On Fiverr clients buy ready-made gigs rather than posting jobs, so your gig page does all the selling.

Build a gig that ranks

Research what top sellers in your niche offer, then write a gig title around the exact phrase buyers search for. Use all three pricing tiers — a cheap entry tier to win first orders, and a premium tier where your real margin lives. Upload a clean gig image or short video, since thumbnails drive most clicks.

Win your first orders

New gigs get a temporary visibility boost — use it. Respond to buyer requests fast, keep your response time under a few hours, and over-deliver slightly on early orders. Reviews compound: a handful of five-star ratings moves you toward Level One status and better placement.

Get paid

Fiverr clears funds 14 days after an order completes (7 for Top Rated sellers). You can withdraw to PayPal, Payoneer, bank transfer, or the Fiverr Revenue Card once the balance clears.
