1. WorkIsThere: no fees and in your language

It's the option if what bothers you about Fiverr is the cost. It charges no fee to the freelancer or the client and has no paid plans. Instead of waiting to be found among thousands of gigs, you see projects posted by clients from Latin America and send proposals: 4 free per week plus 2 permanent ones for every finished job.

It has real-time chat, a workspace with progress updates and deliveries, and mutual ratings. Payment is agreed directly between the parties (bank transfer, Mercado Pago, Pix, PayPal, Payoneer, Wise…), with no money held on the platform.

2. Upwork

The largest freelance platform in the world. Besides projects with proposals, it has a service catalog similar to Fiverr's gigs. It charges the freelancer a variable fee of 0% to 15% per contract, and each proposal uses Connects, which you buy. It's worth it if your English is strong and you're looking for clients from the United States.

3. Workana

The best-known platform in Latin America, in Spanish and Portuguese. It works with projects and proposals. It charges the freelancer a tiered fee (20% up to USD 300 with each client, 10% up to USD 3,000 and 5% after that) and the client 4.5%, and sells plans to get more proposals.

4. Freelancer.com, 99designs and Malt

Freelancer.com mixes projects with contests and charges a fee for each project won, with paid memberships. 99designs specializes in graphic design and contests. Malt is strong in Spain and Europe, with corporate clients and more formal profiles.

Which one should you choose?

If you sell highly standardized services for the English-speaking market (for example, English voice-overs or YouTube thumbnails), Fiverr still has a lot of demand. If you want Spanish- or Portuguese-speaking clients and to keep 100% of what you earn, choose WorkIsThere. The most common approach is to combine them: having a profile on more than one platform multiplies your opportunities.
