To much information 🥴🥴
I am not sure what you mean, nor do I understand the value that this comment adds to the conversation..
This request is crucial for a lot of sellers, and we really hope it will be implemented as soon as possible.

Do you know the Benefit of the Fiverr forum?
You get to learn a lot of things. Tips, tricks, how you can use some website features, etc. But you shouldn't expect the forum to affect your Fiverr performance in any way. You can ignore it and have the same placement in Search results.

So maybe there are some changes underway in the way fiverr looks at things now.
Sure, but I still think that sellers having control over multiples or not should be mandatory. The lack of such option is severe. As I said, some categories need it more than others. For writers, this is a MUST HAVE, due to how different the needs of customers are, one of them wants 2 articles that are long, others need 10 short articles, etc, anyway you get the gist of it.. Plus, it's unfair that buyers can order so much without talking with you first. And as it was said above, they just say "I thought you were offering this", even if Fiverr automatically has up to 20x the desired package.

BUT you’ll get a bigger sale out of it.
A sale that gets refunded and a frustrated buyer. I hardly call that a win. Plus, it's better for Fiverr if customers are happy, right? That's why sellers need to have more control over how much they sell. It's way worse if a sale ends up being refunded.
The thing is, for writing at least, there will always be people that need articles quicker, so for us at least, an extra fast feature is important. I don't want to raise my prices and force myself to do a 1-day delivery for everything like other writers do, that would be really challenging for me, so yes, this type of feature I am asking for definitely offers more control over what and how I sell. Which should definitely be the case in the first place.

A website similar to Fiverr, mostly focused on SEO services.. Anyway, here's how they handled this issue. So you don't have to worry about any problems. It's definitely something that can be handled in a similar way here, either with a drop down system like this or a button to turn Multiples On/Off....

I see for most of you the issue is the time
It's related to money too. Because people tend to manipulate the system to pay less. I am talking mostly about time related issues here because it gets very problematic schedule-wise. But yes, some buyers are creative and I had some buy multiples for the basic gig and they did a single fast delivery obviously. I forgot to mention that, but the main focus is for sellers to have control over what they receive in an order here. A single button to turn gig multiples on or off is the right solution. It's not like Fiverr would stop everyone from using gig multiples. Instead it would give us more control over what we want and that is CRUCIAL especially for those in the writing section or any category where there are bulk purchases.

It is so misleading. It’s fiverr stating - on my behalf - that I can deliver 1 OR 20 posters in 4 days, no biggie.
Exactly. I had someone order 20x my second package, obviously without talking with me or saying anything, that purchase and a few more with 10x the maximum word count had to be canceled, and it was one of the main reasons why I ended up removed from search for a good month and a half. So yes... I really hope this option is implemented. Even now I am dealing with a dude that ordered 20x my about us page (where I only do one about us page) just because he could.. Needless to say it's extremely difficult to deal with these things, and it can all be avoided just by adding a button.
It wouldn't hamper the buyer experience, if anything it would provide realistic expectations. This way the buyer knows exactly what limits that seller has and what he can actually provide. Not think that he can do 20x his maximum gig package...

And the buyers will tell you: “Well, it was there so I assumed it was fine”.
Exactly what happened to me multiple times. People assume that I agree with it if it's there. And I don't, but there's no way to stop this. For writers in particular it gets very annoying, because people might not buy 10 logos at once, but they will buy 10 or 20 articles if they need them. So for the Writing and Translation category (and I assume other categories) this is a MUST HAVE.

This is certainly a feature that could be implemented, perhaps the Fiverr expect the sellers to enter in vacance mode to be unavailable when they are busy with many orders?
That doesn't mean I shouldn't be able to choose how much work I want to receive per customer. I don't like working on large articles myself, and even if it's stated on the gig page, people still order because there's a gig multiples option. So it should be the seller's choice what and how they want to sell.
22 minutes ago, mateusbl said:And just my opinion if you are getting many orders than you can randle, maybe you should considere increase your prices.
I don't have a problem with the number of orders. I have a problem with the order size. The seller should have control over what orders they want to receive, right? Just like you are able to start/stop the 3 gig packages, you should also be able to either enable or disable gig multiples.

Thank you for supporting the cause @miiila.
Yes, I've been dealing with this problem ever since I started on Fiverr in 2014 and usually I have a lot of cancellations caused by this problem. Even if I just have 3 word counts I offer through gig packages, people still order with multiples and more often than not, those huge orders need to be canceled. That has a negative impact not only on how people find me, but also my overall income. And yes, it's been problematic for customers as well.
I hope this will be implemented soon, if it was indeed implemented for the VO section, I don't think it should be any challenge adding it to the Writing category. Honestly, the entire website should need this, because gig multiples should be something the seller agrees to.

I hope someone at Fiverr sees this, because it's an issue for a lot of people. Due to the nature of my work, as a writer, I always have people that need many articles at once, but my workload doesn't allow me to go over a certain word count. Unfortunately, people place large orders without my consent, and canceling those orders has a negative impact on my account.
That's why it's important for sellers to have an option where they can turn gig multiples on or off. That means it should be an individual decision for every seller, it's not like gig multiples would be removed. But in many cases, a seller just wants to offer 3 packages and that's it, no gig multiples for that package. Please implement this, because it's extremely important.... Other platforms like SEOClerks already have it, and they implemented the option in the form of a simple button.

Achieving a fiverr level is an opportunity to reach a wider audience, in no way, shape, or form does it guarantee you more orders.
Actually when you become top rated seller you usually have less sales, because you are inclined to increase your prices..

You should at least have a lot of orders in the queue to qualify.
Not exactly. You should have a proven track record.
You can have 100 orders in queue, if you cancel all of them that doesn't prove anything. However, completed orders are another thing entirely.

How can I achieve fiverr seller plus?
You don't achieve it. It's a paid program, it costs $30 per month.

Fiverr only gives to those who are getting orders on a consistent basis and have a BIG team.
I don't think that having a big team is a requirement. I don't need such a service, but I do have consistent work and I am sure I would qualify. I do agree they are playing it safe, because they have to, they can't just hand out free money.

Unfortunately I just use it for a single gig that's newer. But I can't help you.

@donnovan86When you get lost on the search, I assume your promoted gig status is unqualified?
It can be hard to know. I am rarely removed from search, unless I have a lot of cancellations (even if it's my fault or not when I cancel, as a seller I always end up penalized for the cancellation).
I am using promoted gigs, but they don't really give me that many sales, even if I have the highest bid they ask there. So I don't rely on that as much.

I'd much prefer they add multicurrency support before they add crypto.
That would be ideal, but then again there are so many currencies that it would be hard to manage and also quite expensive. So unfortunately I doubt this will ever happen.

Adding Cryptocurrency would just involve extra costs for Fiverr. Then there's also the fact that Crypto is very volatile, and some gigs tend to take 15-20 days or more to complete. By the time those 20 days are over, the cryptocurrency can end up losing a lot of value, take Bitcoin who had a massive drop recently. Fiverr still has to pay you in dollars, the amount that was purchased. And trust me, Fiverr won't take a loss on this.
There are many other reasons, but for the one I said above, I am 99.999999% confident they won't ever add crypto payments unless they go for a stablecoin or something that doesn't lose value.

No, I mean the seller's prices. What they charge customers for their work.

Buyers already support the seller while buying from him. If you want to receive support from your audience, create a Patreon. There are much more important issues to solve, like the ability to start or stop gig multiples, something that's very problematic and which is affected a lot of people on the site.
