grizmozin Posted May 3, 2020 Share Posted May 3, 2020 I saw that I was paid 20 dollars by a buyer. I received $16. From this I conclude that Fiverr taxs $1 for Every $5 earned so you technically earn $4.So does this mean that if i sell something for a $100, I will recieve $80? 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lloydsolutions Posted May 3, 2020 Share Posted May 3, 2020 Fiverr takes 20% commission.Suggest you read the Terms of Service at the bottom of the Fiverr main page for the rules as to how Fiverr works. Everything is explained there in great detail. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I see dear I feel like I’m married to you.😁When I see dear I feel like I’m married to you.😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁I guess it depends on where you reside. Don’t always expect that the general use of a word in your environment will be the same with others’. It’s nearly the same English but we live in different parts of the world. Level of tolerance in various environments differ. In the part of the world where I live. How do people use the word “dear”? - it is just a friendly gesture. People use it almost indiscriminately. Especially older women, they use it for virtually every young folk. It definitely has no link with being manipulative or romantic. However, irrespective of your culture, so you won’t come off as rude or manipulative, It’s much better to avoid the use of such words unless you are 100% sure that the person on the receiving side is absolutely convenient with it. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

writerlovelady Posted May 3, 2020 Share Posted May 3, 2020 Sounds like they took 20% to me… which is their commissionThey will definitely be paying taxes from that 20% cut also, which is indirectly coming from freelancers.

zeehadul Posted May 3, 2020 Share Posted May 3, 2020 Its for maintaining their site and paying their employees and vice versa. Its not a tax. Like in upwork you have to pay 20% and also you need to show your “TIN” number also. That means you have to provide tax by your own if need.
