Time for a better freelance platform?
Stop losing money to high commissions and waiting weeks for payouts. Zinn Hub gives you three ways to earn in one platform — gig-style Zinns, post-a-project bidding with free proposals, and a direct freelancer hire directory — with direct PayPal/Stripe payouts at checkout and crypto acceptance built in.

Fiverr takes a flat 20% cut, controls your pricing, suppresses your gigs algorithmically, and blocks direct client communication. You do the work — they keep a fifth. And you only have ONE way to earn: waiting for buyers to find your gigs.
Gigs + Projects + direct hire — 3 revenue streams See the full comparisonUpwork charges up to 20% commission, forces you to buy Connects just to apply for jobs, and holds your earnings for up to 14 days. The system penalises you for trying.
Free proposals, instant payouts + passive Zinn sales See the full comparisonSEOClerks charges 20% on every sale with an interface that hasn’t evolved in years. Limited buyer trust, poor dispute handling, restricted payment options — and gig listings are your only income stream.
Gigs + Projects + direct hire with crypto built in See the full comparisonPeoplePerHour charges sellers up to 20% and buyers a separate fee too, driving clients away. AI screens your proposals, and new sellers get buried with minimal visibility.

Every platform above locks you into one workflow. Zinn Hub gives you three — use one, two, or all three. No other freelance marketplace offers this combination.
List service packages with fixed pricing. Buyers purchase directly at checkout, payment lands in your PayPal or Stripe instantly. Passive income that sells while you sleep.
Buyers post projects, you submit proposals and get hired. Actively win work with free proposals — no Connects, no paid bids. Bigger custom jobs on top of your Zinn sales.
Build a public freelancer profile showcasing your skills, rates, and portfolio. Buyers browse the directory and hire you directly — inbound work with no proposals needed.

Learn About Buyer Insights →Why freelancers are making the switch
Zinn Hub was built by freelancers, for freelancers. Here’s what makes it different from everything else out there.
Three revenue streams vs one
Gig-only platforms like Fiverr cap your income at one channel — waiting for buyers. Zinn Hub unlocks three: Zinns (passive), Projects (active bidding), and the freelancer directory (inbound hire). Same effort, triple the earning paths.
Free AI creators built in
The free AI Zinn Creator writes complete listings — packages, FAQs, add-ons and images. The AI Micro Creator builds $5–$20 tasters in about a minute, and Improve a Zinn suggests 4–8 upgrades with a preview of every change. Everything lands as a draft you approve.
Sell in 45 languages
Every platform above is English-first — the best-written listing wins, not the best freelancer. Zinn Hub translates the work: write your Zinns, proposals and messages in your own language and every buyer reads them in theirs. Even the text inside your listing images. See the language layer.
Deliver live with Zinn Calls
Sell coaching, courses and consulting as live video or audio sessions, in the browser — no downloads, no contact details shared. The call itself is always free, and live captions or a spoken translated voice bridge any language gap as you talk. Explore Zinn Calls.
Direct payments at checkout
Connect your own PayPal or Stripe account. When a client buys your service, the money goes straight to you — not into a platform wallet you have to withdraw from weeks later.
Accept crypto from every client
Every Zinner automatically accepts USDT and USDC via NOWPayments. You don’t even need a crypto wallet — choose platform payouts every Friday via bank transfer, PayPal, Zinn Wallet, or your own crypto wallet.
0% commission on your first $500
Start earning from day one with zero commission on your first $500 in sales. After that, a fair tiered scale from 15% down to 8% means the more you earn, the less you pay. See our full pricing breakdown.
Free concierge setup service
Not sure where to start? Our founder Neil personally helps new Zinners set up their profile, optimise their listings, and land their first orders — completely free through Zinn Concierge.
Free resources & monthly competitions
Access free guides, tools, and resources to grow your business. Plus, enter our monthly competitions with cryptocurrency prizes — just for being an active Zinner.
