Handlyn Payments
How payments work
Payments on Handlyn are designed to be clear, flexible, and secure, ensuring a smooth experience for both clients and artisans. Typically, payments are made after a job has been successfully completed, giving you confidence that the work meets your expectations before releasing funds.
The payment method for each task is decided directly between you and the artisan. Depending on the type of job and your preferences, this may include cash, mobile money, card payments, or other supported options on the platform. This flexibility allows you to choose the method that is most convenient and comfortable for both parties.
We strongly encourage you to agree on payment terms before starting any job. Clearly outlining the agreed price, payment schedule, and method helps prevent misunderstandings and ensures that both you and the artisan are on the same page.
Where platform payments are available, using them provides an extra layer of transparency and accountability. Not only can the transaction be tracked securely, but the artisan also pays a commission to Handlyn after the job is completed, which helps support the platform and maintain its services. This system ensures that payments are handled fairly while allowing you to focus on getting the job done.
By following these practices, you can enjoy a safe, reliable, and professional experience on Handlyn, knowing that both your interests and the artisan’s are protected throughout the payment process.
