Do I Have to Tip on Fiverr?

Last updated on September 29, 2022 @ 1:10 am

The quick answer is no, you don’t have to tip on Fiverr. However, if you’re happy with the work you’ve received and would like to show your appreciation, tipping is always appreciated.

Fiverr is a marketplace where freelancers offer services starting at $5. Because of the low price point, many buyers assume that tipping is not expected or even allowed.

PRO TIP: If you are unsure about whether or not to tip on Fiverr, err on the side of caution and do not tip. While it is not required, some users may feel offended if you do not leave a tip, especially if they went above and beyond for your project.

However, just because tipping is not required, doesn’t mean it’s not appreciated. If you’re happy with the work you’ve received, a tip is a great way to show your appreciation.

There’s no set amount that you should tip on Fiverr, so it’s completely up to you. A good rule of thumb is to tip 10-20% of the total cost of the gig. So, if you paid $50 for a gig, a $5-$10 tip would be appropriate.

Keep in mind that tipping is not required, and there’s no expectation that you will tip. If you can’t afford to tip or simply don’t want to, that’s completely okay. The most important thing is that you’re happy with the work you’ve received.
