Your experience with AVAILABLE NOW feature

[danigraph]

When ever I’m online I always turn on this new feature and have never got any response. If it is benefiting you guys let me know!

[avextor]

The Available Now is only let the buyers ( people / users ) know if you are Available and will do fast response, but doesn’t guarantee that you will get an order or not. :thinking:

That feature is like a car. You need to learn how to drive, pick passengers, drive then to their destination then you get paid. If you simply sit on the drivers sit and hope for a gta “funny magnet” cheat, it won’t work.

There is a switch on the search results page says “Available NOW Sellers first”. So there is a chance to appear earlier in the results for sellers.

I tried this and saw myself earlier, so it works.

I have it for me, When I activate it, I get on top but not getting any response lately in Dec but Got a lot of buyers in Oct and Nov

[jahid849310]

Yes i got so many knock from buyer because using of available now feature. Don’t be hopeless bro wish you all the best 👍

[lafaraz]

So one of my successful video gig is in the Promotional Videos category.
All of a sudden all the metrics dropped and I believe this is due to the Available Now feature.
This feature seems to be now enabled by default for buyers and all the gigs even lesser ratings are shown on the top of the results even if you sort the gigs by “Bes Selling”.
What really annoys me is the fact that I can’t even enable the Available Now as I don’t meet the criteria of having less than 5 active orders.

Hi all,

I have warned last mount although I have turned off Available Now feature from mobile website. In this week, I have warned again although I have turned off Available Now feature from mobile website. There is no problem if I turn it off from desktop website.

Have you ever get any warning like that? I am not sure if this is a bug or I go insane 🙂 I have already contacted to cs.

Thanks for kind replies 🙂

[excelfix]

Yes. When i turn off available now, after 2 hours a buyer came and i replied him after 2 hours.
Next day i saw my available now featured has been closed.
This is happening every month with me

They replied me i broke the rules many times 😂

Really unfair

[cagricilara]

CS send me usual auto messages that teach me rules. I am here since 2014. Of course i know the rules. I just inform them about a bug and now i am punished a bug. This is not fair.

There are lots of bugs i always write them but they only send auto messages like a robot. Why we write them? They should be aware of bugs and fix the. But they do not.

If you spend a bit of time looking at all the forum posts regarding Available Now (by doing a simple search), you’ll soon find out that this feature is in Beta testing, which means only a select group of people have this feature.

Once the feature goes out of Beta testing, everyone will have it. Till then, you will have to wait patiently for it to be tested 😉

P.S. don’t get your hopes too high, because this feature doesn’t guarantee you sales or more earnings - you are still in charge of getting sales. I know a few people who’ve used this feature without any success - I even tried it myself and haven’t seen any difference whatsoever.

I even tried it myself and haven’t seen any difference whatsoever.

That is the first good news I’ve heard in a while, not that it didn’t help you but that it is not getting everyone massive sales while mine are in a slump. Thank you.

Weal it’s really cool on Fiverr. They trying something different to improve the market place.

Maybe one or two. In the long run, though, Available Now is not a magic feature that will make you successful. It’s merely a tool to help YOU build your reputation.

If you want to be successful, you’re going to have to do a whole lot more than sitting back and waiting for people to buy from you. Get out there and promote your gigs!

Does the status “Available NOW” give tangible benefits? who noticed that customers began to write more often?

[misscrystal]

I don’t have that feature available to me and would love to have it.

When I USED TO be shown online it was a big help. Those were the days…

[jonk_studio]

Hi,
Finally, I get the 5th review and can enable the feature "available now"
Today on the 19th day I created my Fiverr account and have got 6 orders (5 are complete and 1 in the process).

I think this is very fast 🙂 And all I do is hang out in the buyer request section (Send offer) and share all my gigs on social media (every day).

Well, I am very happy because in my opinion the feature available now is very influential 🙂 Hopefully, the future will be better and more orders 🙂

Have a great day 😉

[vickiespencer]

Did you start sharing on Social Media because Jonbass encouraged you to?

Hi Jonk, I am glad things are looking up for you?

[misscrystal]

You are lucky. I have over 1000 reviews and cannot use Available Now because I have old orders that never started. I can’t cancel them all either without ruining my cancellation rate.

[newlevelseo]

Congratulations on hitting the 5 review marks so quickly.

Available now is a very handy feature and one I’m glad that Fiverr came out with.

Misscrystal, your inactive orders should not count against you, but your delivered orders do according to what I have been told by Fiverr’s CS.

Hope that helps,
Justin

I don’t have Available Now available to me since I have old inactive orders.

I cannot cancel them without it affecting my completion rate.

How do your delivered orders count against you?

Damned if you do and damned if you don’t.
