Reverse Robin Hood: Robbing the Needy to give to the Rich After a decade of working on the platform WorkMarket has suddenly decided to automatically take 5% from every technicians work order to provide access to "thousands of work opportunities" as if that wasn't what they'd been doing the last nine years. So now not only are my clients not encouraged to update pay rates to reflect shifting economic conditions but WorkMarket helps themselves to my money and abuses technicians in the favor of vendors instead. Don't expect anyone in your corner in spite of technicians being the lifeblood of the platform. ADP takeover was one of the worst things that has happened to WorkMarket.

Easy way to work as a freelancer I use Workmarket as a work logging / payment system (instead of a work sourcing platform) and find it very useful. It's relatively straightforward to use, and payments - once approved - are paid into my PayPal account quite quickly (usually the same day). Not many of my clients use Workmarket, but I would happily use it for all my jobs. The only thing that lets it down is the fact it only uses dollars. A pound (GBP) option would be handy. If there is already an option I can't find it!

WorkMarket and HyperWallet's way of… WorkMarket and HyperWallet's way of communicating with each other on a problem I know more than I have experienced made me spend around 70hours trying to fix a problem getting a verification. They pretended that they had never seen this problem before (also when the same problem happened multiple times) and kept sending me between the two companies for 50 hours, it took 50 hours of work before anyone decided to help me. I had already gotten paid for months before they decided they needed my information for a second time and all of this happened. I ended up leaving the project I was working on and I will ever work with anyone that uses their services as a way of payment in the future. I am sure some customers easily can access their money, but if there are any problems at any time, do not expect them to help you.

I have been using this platform for 3+… I have been using this platform for 3+ years without issue. I do use others, and without naming them, WorkMarket outperforms the competitors in that the freelancer stands to make the most because fees are not generally the freelancer's responsibility. Yes, it does vary, but 98% of the fees are covered by the buyer. The support staff offers assistance in most cases and although they tend to favor a buyer, they do try for an amicable and beneficial resolution towards the freelancer.

WORK MARKET sucks I am IT Pro with 40 yrs in the field. In 2024 0ver $1000 of unpaid tickets through Work Market. This platform is concentrated on getting paid by the vendors not a technician. They will not protect technician interest in any way and ignore payment issues. They also hiding certain informations from the Tech when the discrepancy arrise. Certainly do not recommend it.
