OUR PURPOSE

This website was built to help Freelancers meet with Buyer clients. Apexlistings helps freelancers to sell their skills online. 

Apexlistings is not a party to the contract between a Buyer and a Freelancer, we are only a link between the two parties and our involvement is limited. 

Apexlistings is not accountable for the qualification of freelancers for their selected skills and services but all cyber cafes registered are verified.  Buyers should make their own judgments when selecting service providers. However, we offer paid assistance to Buyers who need to be matched to relevant freelancers for their tasks.

 

USER PROFILES

When you register for an account you agree that;

The information you provide is true and accurate with regard to your identity, the skills mentioned, and every other detail you supply.

Only one user (You) will operate the account and take full responsibility for the account. You can't therefore post freelance services on behalf of another person. But if you are registered as a buyer, you can either post your job or the job of a friend.

Apexlistings does not store passwords. If you forget your password, use the "Forgot Password" Option available on the Login Page. If you are stuck with a password reset, contact us.

You are bound to the data protection policies implemented by this website. Refer to our data protection guide

FEEDBACK & REPORTING

We allow Buyers to report "unprofessional" Freelancers. We take the first action once you have been reported several times (at our discretion). If we realize that the Freelancer is at fault, we reserve the right to suspend your account and delete your freelance service from our database without compensation.

We advise freelancers to be cautious when dealing with buyers.

 

CONFIDENTIALITY

Contact details such as phone numbers and emails will be held confidential and not shared publicly on the website. Refer to our data protection guide

There is one section in which you can publicly share your contact details: On the "Business Contact" section in your profile.

Apexlistings has the right to remove some of your contacts from the public space if you have shared them unnecessarily. This is a move to protect your personal data.

We use cookies to collect and remember your details when you visit our website so as to better your experience.

APPROVALS

All services posted or edited require admin approval. Approval time shouldn't take longer than 48 hours. If you experience a delay in service approval or funds deposit, you can use a priority complaint form to reach us. 

Featured Services are charged Ksh 200 one-month fee. This is optional. Posting a service is FREE. 

 If your account was registered under a subscription plan, it will operate with a monthly subscription fee of Ksh 200 renewed after 30 days.

FEATURED SERVICES

Featured Services are services that are promoted by us via different media. However, Buyers still need to use their judgment when buying the service. If you mark your service as featured, you are allowing us to share your service and profile over different media in order to increase your visibility. This is an optional feature.

 

FREELANCER VERIFICATION

Freelancer verification is a FREE step that freelancers can take in order to submit their qualifications or to allow us to understand their skills better. With this information, we can now match you to Buyers who are relevant to you. When you submit the verification form you consent to buyer-matching terms which include sharing your contact details with buyers who require it.
