themuslimgig Posted May 7, 2014 Share Posted May 7, 2014 The first two letters of the Fiverr logo make up one of the letters in the Hebrew language, I believe the letter “chet.” (Someone should correct me if I am wrong.) I speak some Arabic, which is a Semitic language like Hebrew, so this kinda popped out at me. Fiverr is an Israeli-based company. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
celticmoon Posted May 7, 2014 Share Posted May 7, 2014 It’s possible that when the guys set up Fiverr, they were also using a double meaning…depending on what “chet” means. But I think originally when the platform was set up, gigs were also called “fivers” as well as referring to the five dollar amount for a basic service, as in “My fivers are perfect for online business” or “I’ll sell you this or that for a fiver.” So it was all just part of consolidating the whole concept into a catch-word which would generate interest. When I first came to the site, there were quite a few people who still called gigs “fivers”; now I rarely see that. But I could be totally wrong, and there IS a secret meaning to the name~!
