Holdy vs Fiverr

Keep your rate. Keep your client.

Fiverr takes 20% and owns the relationship. Holdy charges 5-8%, you bring your own clients, and the scope is locked before anyone pays.

Be honest

Who should switch, and who should stay

Stay on Fiverr if:

  • You need Fiverr to find clients for you

  • You're just starting out and have no network yet

  • You want the Fiverr algorithm to bring you work

Switch to Holdy if:

  • You already have clients via social media, referrals, or repeat business

  • You're tired of paying 20% for clients you brought yourself

  • You want scope locked before you start working

  • You want faster payouts

Stop paying 20% for clients you already have.
