Workana
Description
Workana is an established freelance marketplace founded in 2012 that connects freelancers with clients looking for remote talent. The platform has been operating for more than 10 years and has built a large freelancer and client community, particularly across Latin America.
Workana currently lists more than 25,000 new projects each month across areas such as IT and programming, design, writing and translation, sales and marketing, administration, finance, engineering, and other professional services.
Freelancers can create a profile for free, choose their area of specialization, and submit proposals to projects that match their skills.
Projects can be fixed-price or hourly, giving freelancers different ways to structure their work with clients. Workana also holds client payments in an escrow system before work begins, which provides a layer of payment protection for freelancers.
The platform is useful for people offering services such as writing, translation, graphic design, programming, virtual assistance, digital marketing, administration, and other professional skills.
Beginners can create a free profile, although the number of applications available on the free plan is limited. Workana also offers paid Benefits Plans with additional features and more opportunities to submit applications.
Workana charges freelancers a commission when they successfully establish a contract with a client. The current commission structure starts at 20% for the first $300 paid by a particular client, drops to 10% after the client has paid more than $300, and drops to 5% once payments from that client exceed $3,000.
Freelancers can withdraw through available methods such as PayPal and Payoneer, with the options depending on their country. Workana currently offers monthly withdrawals on its free plan, while some paid plans provide mid-month or weekly withdrawal options.
