Safety

Trust & safety

How we keep clients, freelancers and their money safe — and what we expect from everyone who uses Excavatornet.

Every freelancer is identity-checked

Before anyone can sell or be hired, our team approves their profile and checks their CNIC and a selfie. We screen names against sanctions and proscribed-persons lists. Payouts only go to an account in the freelancer’s own name, verified with the bank or wallet.

Identity & AML policy

Escrow on every milestone

Clients fund a milestone before work starts. The money is held for that milestone and released only when the client approves, automatically after 7 days without a response, or by our decision in a dispute.

Where the money is

Fair disputes

If something goes wrong, either side can open a dispute before payment is released. We read the contract messages and delivered files, hear both sides and decide in writing: release, refund or a split.

Dispute policy

Fraud and misuse checks

We look for warning signs such as someone paying themselves, unusually fast or large payments, and attempts to move payment off the platform. Payments can be held for review. We never share your data except as our Privacy Policy explains.

Stay safe

  • Start work only after a milestone shows Funded.
  • We never ask for your PIN, OTP or password — not by email, phone or WhatsApp.
