Working Your Way Up
As mentioned earlier, Fiverr lets you upgrade your membership not buy paying for it but working for it. This makes sure that higher level users have done quality work and have not just bought their way to more features for their account. Here is what you need to work your way up.
Free – Level 1: 30 days active on Fiverr, Completed at least 10 individual orders, maintain 4star or better and have a low cancellation rate
Level 1 – Level 2: 50 individual orders in two consecutive months, maintain 4.5star or better and have a low cancellation rate.
Level 2 – Level 3: 4.75star or better, have exceptional customer care, have a low cancellation rate and high volume of sales.
They also have another tier called TRS (top rated seller) but that status is done by manual selection performed by the Fiverr team based on undisclosed criteria. With just the 3 levels you can reach by your performance you would be able to gauge whether the person you are dealing with is legit or not. Though personal discernment still plays a part and it is always wise to be extra careful even if they seem to be legit.

I recently started working on Fiverr for extra cash. If you’re trying to making a living soley off of Fiverr and you live in America, good luck. The best advice I can give you is that offer high quality service but something that is manageable in 20 or so minutes for $5. Longer time, you should offer your services for more since Fiverr takes a hefty 20% of your profits. Overall, Fiverr is a great way to work on your freelancing skills and build up your portfolio .
That’s some good advice right there, Pratricia! 🙂
I ordered AND paid for a letter from Hogwarts for my daughter. I ordered it on July 12. It never arrived. Fiverr owes me either the money or the letter. I have been patient but enough is enough. Delilah Pfeifer
