Are you a freelancer and have questions about how 404Works works, access to missions, or the Premium subscription? This FAQ answers the most common questions from freelancers looking to grow their activity and connect with qualified clients.
404Works is a platform that connects freelancers with clients looking for specific skills. Registration, profile creation and access to basic features are free. Freelancers can then choose to subscribe to a Premium plan to increase their visibility and access more mission opportunities.
404Works operates on a “freemium” model. Essential features are available for free to freelancers. The optional Premium subscription provides additional benefits, particularly in terms of visibility and access to selected missions.
No. 404Works does not charge any commission on missions. You communicate directly with the client, negotiate your rates freely, and manage invoicing and payments yourself.
During registration, select the “Freelancer” account type. You must then complete your profile and request its validation. Once your profile is approved, you can access missions and be contacted by clients.
A profile may be rejected if it is incomplete or does not meet the platform’s quality requirements. The most common reasons are an unprofessional profile picture, missing information, or a description that is not detailed enough. A clear, complete profile written in proper English significantly increases your chances of approval.
You can respond to missions posted by clients. However, private conversations through the messaging system are initiated by the client. You will be notified by email when a client contacts you.
Some missions are subject to a selection process and are accessible as a priority to Premium members. This approach helps provide more qualified opportunities and limits the number of responses on certain missions.
The Premium subscription helps freelancers increase their visibility and improve their business efficiency. It provides access to selected missions, displays full contact details on your profile, improves your position in the directory, and increases direct contacts with clients.
Three Premium subscription durations are available: 1 month, 3 months, or 6 months. All plans include the same Premium features; only the subscription length differs.
Yes, the Premium subscription is automatically renewed at the end of the selected period (1, 3, or 6 months). You can request cancellation at any time from your personal account area.
Cancellation can be requested from your personal account, in the “Premium” section. After confirmation, the cancellation takes effect at the end of the period already paid. You keep Premium benefits until that date, and no further charges are made.
Yes. You can set your profile status to “Unavailable”. Your profile will no longer appear in the directory and you will stop receiving requests, while keeping your account.
You can request the permanent closure of your account via the dedicated form available from your personal account. Account closure results in the complete deletion of your profile and the removal of all your personal data, in accordance with applicable regulations.
404Works is the first commission-free freelance platform, allowing companies to post their projects and collaborate directly with qualified freelancers, with no fees and no intermediaries.
