How it works

How Excavatornet works

Clients hire identity-verified freelancers. Payment for each milestone is held in escrow and released when the work is approved.

For clients

  1. Find the right person

    Buy a fixed-price gig, or post a job and compare proposals from verified freelancers. Message them before you decide.

  2. Fund a milestone

    Pay with Raast QR, JazzCash or Easypaisa. The money is held in escrow by Excavatornet — the freelancer can see it’s there but can’t touch it.

  3. Review the delivery

    Approve it to release payment, ask for a revision, or open a dispute. If you don’t respond within 7 days, payment is released automatically.

  4. Leave a review

    When the contract is complete, both sides can leave an honest review. Only real, paid contracts can be reviewed.

For freelancers

  1. Set up your profile

    Show your skills, experience and portfolio links. Our team reviews every profile.

  2. Verify your identity

    Upload your CNIC and a selfie. Documents are encrypted and only seen by authorised staff.

  3. Add a payout account

    A JazzCash or Easypaisa wallet or a bank account (IBAN) in your own name — we check the account title.

  4. Work and get paid

    Start only when a milestone is funded. Released earnings clear after 7 days (14 days for your first 3), then you withdraw.

Refunds

Money still in escrow can be refunded to the account you paid from — for example if the freelancer can’t do the work. See the Refund Policy.

Disputes

Either side can open a dispute before payment is released. Our team reviews the messages and files and decides: release, refund or split. Dispute Policy

Fees

Every fee is listed in plain words on our fees page. No subscriptions, nothing that renews.
