Can You Decline Gigs on Fiverr?

Last updated on September 28, 2022 @ 10:22 pm

As a Fiverr seller, you have the right to choose which orders you want to complete and which you don’t. That being said, there are a few things to keep in mind before declining a gig.

The first thing you need to do is consider why you’re declining the gig. If it’s because the buyer’s request is outside of your scope of work, then that’s a perfectly acceptable reason.

However, if you’re declining because you don’t think you can do a good job or meet the buyer’s expectations, you should think twice.

Remember, your goal on Fiverr is to deliver quality work that meets or exceeds buyers’ expectations. If you decline too many gigs, it will reflect badly on your profile and could lead to buyers being reluctant to work with you in the future.

PRO TIP: If you are thinking about declining gigs on Fiverr, be aware that this may result in your account being suspended. Fiverr takes gig quality very seriously, and if you are not providing the level of service that they expect, they will take action.

Of course, there will be times when it simply isn’t possible for you to take on a gig. In these cases, it’s best to be honest with the buyer and explain your situation. They will appreciate your honesty and it will help build trust between you and the buyer.

Can You Decline Gigs on Fiverr?

Yes, as a Fiverr seller, you have the right to choose which orders you want to complete and which ones you don’t.


However, there are a few things you should keep in mind before declining any gigs, such as:

  • The reason behind your decision
  • How it might affect your profile/ratings
  • Whether or not you can provide an explanation to the buyer

In most cases, it’s best to only decline gigs if they’re outside of your scope of work or if you genuinely don’t think you can provide quality work. Otherwise, declining too many gigs can lead to buyers being hesitant to work with you in the future.
