For Freelancers

The path to working on Flarefix

Four steps. No shortcuts. Every step is a filter — against people who aren't serious, aren't ethical, and aren't ready.

How it works

1

Sign up with your name and email

Create your account. Email or Google. No portfolio required at this stage. You haven't earned that review yet.

2

Pay 32 and take the ethics test

20 questions on ethics, professional communication, and responsibility. Score 70% or higher to pass. The fee is a commitment signal — not a revenue source. Each retry costs 32.

3

Subscribe for 499/month

Once you pass, subscribe to unlock job access. Your subscription is how we know you're actively working. No subscription = no job listings.

4

Place 1 bid per day

Browse jobs and place exactly one bid per day. Choose carefully. Write a real proposal. This is the scarcity mechanism that makes Flarefix different from every other platform.

Who this is for

  • +Freelancers who value their reputation
  • +People who write proposals from scratch
  • +Professionals who meet deadlines
  • +Those who communicate proactively
  • +Anyone tired of competing with spam

Who this is NOT for

  • -People who mass-apply to every job
  • -Those who ghost clients after payment
  • -Anyone who overpromises and underdelivers
  • -Freelancers who copy-paste proposals
  • -Anyone here just to test the system

Frequently asked questions

What happens if I fail the ethics test?

You can retake it by paying the 32 fee again. There is no limit on retakes — but each attempt requires a new payment.

Can I bid on more than one job per day?

No. One bid per day is a hard limit enforced at the database level. This is intentional and non-negotiable.

What happens to my subscription if I don't get hired?

Your subscription stays active for 30 days regardless. You keep access to all job listings and can bid every day during that period.

Is the 32 refundable if I fail?

No. The fee is a commitment signal, not a purchase of guaranteed access. This is clearly stated upfront.

Can my subscription be transferred or paused?

In V1, subscriptions run for 30 days from activation and cannot be paused or transferred.
