Can I ask my clients to be references in my resume?

[lyudachi]

Am I allowed to contact clients I have worked with on the platform to be references on my work for a resume? My Fiverr gigs are a work experience I would like to display on my resume and I've considered putting clients as references. Is this allowed under Fiverr's terms?

Nopes. That would mean you're instigating communication outside the platform between the buyers, yourself and your existing/prospective employers.

Plus, why violate the privacy of a buyer???? 🥲
