That's not true. No one needs your email to buy your gig. I suspect this could be a scammer.

Fiverr staff ( @milos_siena ) answered this question here (it's not allowed):

1) This isn't necessary. Staying online doesn't help you to get orders. 2) You know autorefresh isn't allowed @momaidi, and you've just admitted to Fiverr that you use it. This is one way to appear offline... permanently.

I've had quite a few ask me about this but they're based in California and legit businesses. One country's controlled substance is anothers legal recreational habit. I wonder if it's based on my country, their country, or Fiverrs country?

Didn't realise we had to tell anyone. In the last 3 years I've been in 10-15 different countries, and in those places on lots of different wifi networks. Never had a problem. I expect 'location inconsistency' could refer to a number of different ToS violations. Just speculating. Anyway, I'll share my super fancy set up later...

Very well said, it's nice to see some positivity / a 'can do' attitude.

Interesting! I stand corrected!

I don't use all the features (maybe I should), but coupons for example really don't appeal to me, neither do instant withdrawals although I have used it once or twice. I really love buyer insights, RTO and my SM. I feel that the SM is the thing that moves the needle for most people. If your SM is great you maybe don't mind paying a bit more, if they're not, and you don't use all the features then I completely understand downgrading. Ultimately we all have to decide how we want to grow our 'fiverr business', and for some it's not worth it, for some it is.

I could counter by saying they have added new features since launching it (RTO for e.g.), and have only now increased the prices. New features aside, inflation could be a justification in itself. Going back on locked-in prices isn't cool so no disagreement there. I haven't really kept up with the improvements, but I think in addition to launching new features haven't they improved the keyword tool? Not sure about the other features. SM quality does seem to be a recurring issue for some on the program, so again no strict disagreement. I do sometimes wonder if people overestimate how much an SM can do though, but they should certainly be available to you and respond in good time. Unsurprisingly though good people cost good money. Years ago I had a team of success managers, and for a client to be eligible they had to meet a recurring revenue requirement to be admitted to the program. The SM didn't come with a fixed fee, but the company charged a percent of the client revenue as an overall fee, and in turn the success managers earned commission based upon client revenue growth.

I would think with 99.9% certainty that there is. I would also think that you would go to the bottom of the waiting list. There is also the inevitable cost in time/effort (however small) for them to onboard/offboard sellers to SP, so you may well go to the bottom of a 'secondary list'. Fiverr no doubt has a retention/churn metric for sellers on SP, and it would be something that they want to keep as low as possible, so they may avoid readmitting someone for fear they will only churn again.

The forum isn't moderated 24/7 so at times it can take longer to get to things, especially at the weekend. Please do flag these things when you see them and we'll try to clean them up as quickly as possible.

Thanks! Not anymore 🙂

Thanks @rawque_gulia. I have just removed 2 users and 20 offending posts.

You are right here, I would challenge by saying that renouncing citizenship or risking prison time for tax evasion is more serious and far harder than renouncing a freelance platform, but I do get your point. Me neither. We do what we have to do to earn the money we need to earn. I get that and have nothing but respect for it. I'm also sorry for what you're going through healthwise, life is difficult enough already with that as well. Now, we probably need a separate topic for this (there probably is, I just haven't looked), and I think this is going to be juicy... Google is just getting started, more of this will come. Think of all the sites that will be deindexed, all the aspiring entrepreneurs that will be burned because of this, all the copy that has been purchased, all the buyers that thought it was nowhere near AI, either because they assumed so, or because the seller didn't mention it. Will these people return for refunds, complaints, compensation, review changes...? I did think that google might just look at volume to determine if AI was used, but I saw this amongst other things so it seems that google is pretty clever at telling if it is (it doesn't surprise me) and is even using humans to judge if the content is spam.

It's free! But in all honestly (and I don't mean this sarcastically), what can you do in the Fiverr ecosystem, aside from help other sellers to be successful within the ecosystem? I think the only things you can do if you want to take a stand that actually impacts in some way is pause your gigs and deprive Fiverr of the 20%. Don't pay for SP or promoted gigs. Sell the stock if you have it. Don't lend your professional credibility to the platform by appearing on it as @levinewman is doing. Otherwise is not having a profile complicity in itself and supporting Fiverr's interests? I stopped entirely trusting corporations, governments and a lot of other things a while ago. The banks, the cigarette companies, the politicians, the police, chevron, enron, lehman.
