Other freelance platforms like Fiverr and Upwork charge you 20+% in platform fees: you do the work, and they take the reward. Lyriem is the freelance marketplace with no platform fees. You keep what you earn and get paid safely through escrow.

Yes. Lyriem charges no platform fees. You'll never pay a commission on your earnings.

Lyriem charges no platform fees to Makers, and standard payouts are free. If you need an instant payout, a 1.5% fee applies. Initiators are charged a small payment processing fee of 3.3% + $4 per payment which covers transaction costs, charged at the time of payment.

To open a job on Lyriem, it must be pre-funded. Those funds are held in escrow and released to you upon completion of the job. That's your built-in freelance payment guarantee.

Absolutely. Lyriem doesn't exert any claim over your client relationships or insert itself into your workflow or communications. You built the relationship. You own it. No lock-ins, no walls, no loss of control.

Lyriem gives freelancers three things that make every project cleaner. Escrow-backed projects reduce the risk of non-payment. Card-based payments mean faster money without paper checks. A portable reputation gives you a permanent, verifiable record of your work and reviews.

Lyriem doesn't charge users. Instead, anonymized, aggregated data about freelance trends helps power broader insights for the industry. That's how the platform stays free while keeping your personal and project information private.

Always. Lyriem never sells personal or client data. Only anonymized, aggregated patterns are collected, like average pay rates by skill and region. No individual names, projects, or financials are ever shared.
