5. Unsuccessful collaboration

5.1. For employers 

The performer did not complete the project.

To avoid such situation, we recommend you to consider next points in choosing a candidate:

- the portfolio -check the relevance of the portfolio, whether there is a detailed works description, images, videos and project links;

- the raiting -check the Performers rating and his/her activity on the website;

- reviews - check reviews, if there are a lot of negative ones,  we recommend you to look for someone else;

- feedback - the more working issues you discuss with a potential Performer, the fewer chances there will be misunderstandings. Pay attention to questions the Performer asks and how he answers yours;

- work with specifications -it is better to describe, structure and divide any work into implementation stages, according to which will be carried out reporting and further payment.

The performer dissapiared after taking the project.

If the Performer has not come up for any of his contacts within a week, we recommend you to repost the project.

Accepting a project, make sure that the Performer really took your request, keep the feedback, deal with reporting and step-by-step payment.

If Performer disappeared after the prepayment or the first payment.

If the Performer took your project, completed some part of it, received the first payment and disappeared, we recommend you to contact the support service of the payment system which you used. 

Perhaps it can be returned as wrongly. 

If the Performer disappeared after full payment or prepayment and didn`t fulfilled obligations. 

In this case, we recommend you to contact the law enforcement to investigate the fraud. 

5.2. For applicants 

The employer did not pay for the done project.

The Employers refusal  to pay specific sum is one of the most unpleasant moments for any Performer

To protect yourself from unfair Employers, we recommend you to use the following methods.:

- use step-by-step payment or prepayment;

-work with big companies or use the safe deal;

- examine all the information about the Employer: check reviews, the number of projects on the website and the contact information relevance;

-if it`s possible, sign the agreement for the work performance, cause notarized documents and work acts are the best legal method of dealing with unfair customers;

- some employers ask the performer to transfer security funds to their account as a performance guarantee, we strongly advise not accepting such projects.

We also recommend soberly assessing your strengths, as the Employers reluctance to pay may be the result of poorly performed work, deadlines disruptions and specifications non-compliance.
