Malt'tan (malt.com) Zinn Hub'a geçin

Malt (malt.com) publishes three client plans — Starter at 10% service fees, Advanced at 15%, and a customised Enterprise rate — and invoices freelancers separately for its own fees. Zinn Hub charges the seller 0% on your first $500, then tiered rates that fall as you sell, and charges the buyer nothing at all.

Three ways to earn from one Zinner account

On Malt (malt.com) you build a profile and quote against a client's need. Zinn Hub keeps that motion in its Freelancer Directory and adds two more channels on the same account.

Freelancer Directory Closest to what you do now

A public profile with your skills, your rate and your portfolio, which buyers browse and hire from directly. Start from a skill such as UI/UX Design or Data Science, or a whole area like Software Development.

Zinns Third channel

Productised, fixed-scope packages that sell without a quote — an analytics audit, a design system review, a data pipeline. They keep earning between retainers. Look at Data Analytics or Programming & Tech.

One account a single Zinner registration, set up once
Three ways to earn Zinns, Projects and the Freelancer Directory

One profile. Three routes to the same buyer.

Consultants tend to start with the directory profile, because it is closest to the way they already work, then add a productised Zinn for the work they repeat, and answer briefs when the calendar has room. Each channel reaches a different buyer and none of them requires the other.

Six things European freelancers ask us for

These are the reasons independents give when they open a second account.

You want one rate, not a rate per country

Malt (malt.com) publishes separate client-fee pages for the UK, Belgium, the Netherlands, the Nordics and the Middle East. Zinn Hub applies one published ladder to every Zinner, everywhere.

You want your client not to be charged extra

There is no buyer platform fee on Zinn Hub. The price on the listing is the price the client pays, which removes an awkward conversation from every quote.

You want to be paid into your own account

Connect your own Stripe or PayPal and buyers pay you directly at checkout. Prefer the payment held until the order completes? Choose platform-protected payments and be paid from the payout run instead.

You want income that is not all day-rate

A day rate stops the moment you stop. A productised Micro Zinn or a fixed-scope Zinn keeps selling between engagements — try Data Analysis or Presentation Design.

You want clients beyond Europe

Zinn Hub renders in 45 site languages — French, German, Spanish, Italian, Dutch, Polish and Portuguese among them — and buyers can be messaged in 12 more, 57 in total.

You want to know exactly what you keep

The whole ladder is published on the pricing page: 0% to $500, 20% to $2,500, 15% to $10,000, 13% to $15,000, 10% to $20,000, then 8% — or a flat 8% on Pro Zinner and a flat 7% on Agency Zinner.

What Malt (malt.com) publishes about its own fees

Stated from Malt's own help centre, and nowhere else. Where Malt does not publish a single figure, this page does not print one.

Client service fees — three plans
Starter: 10% service fees. Advanced: 15% service fees. Enterprise: customised service fees. Malt's help centre states that “commissions are calculated on the amount invoiced by your freelancer, excluding tax”.
How the invoicing works
Malt states that at the end of a project the client receives two invoices, one from the freelancer for the work and one from Malt for the service fees, and that “the freelancer also receives a separate invoice from Malt for the fees applied to them”.
Freelancer-side service fee
No single figure published here
Malt's help centre describes the freelancer service fee in more than one place and the descriptions differ, so no freelancer-side percentage appears on this page. If you need that number, read it on Malt's own help centre for your own country before you decide.
Fees are not the same in every market
Malt publishes separate client-fee pages for the United Kingdom, Belgium, the Netherlands, the Nordic countries and the Middle East, and country-specific freelancer terms for France, Spain and Belgium. The plan figures above should not be read as global.
What Malt says is included
Malt states that professional indemnity insurance is included on all projects, publishes mission protection coverage up to 20 million euro, and says freelancers on eligible projects are “paid within 10 days after the client validates the completion of the project”.
Two product lines
Malt describes itself both as a multi-category freelance marketplace and as a Freelance Management System for enterprises. This page compares the marketplace side only, because that is the side a Zinn Hub Zinner would recognise.

Sources: Malt's own help centre at help.malt.com — the client service-fees and offers article and the freelancer service-fees article — and malt.com. Checked 13 August 2026. Malt sets and can change these terms; read your own country’s page too. Zinn Hub is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or connected to Malt.

How to move your practice across, in four steps

Nothing has to be closed to try this.

  1. Zinner Olarak Kaydolun

    Free, with every feature available from the start. Three wizards handle setup: Store Setup, Payment Setup and Zinn Creation.

  2. Rebuild the profile first

    Your directory profile is the closest match to how you already work, so publish that before anything else. Paste your existing profile into Import My Services and it comes back ready to review.

  3. Turn your day rate into a package

    Take the engagement you repeat most and scope it as a fixed-price Zinn. A day rate stops when you stop; a package does not.

  4. Price in USD, then answer briefs

    Set your price in dollars once and buyers see an approximate equivalent in their own currency. Then start replying to briefs in Projects.

What moves with you, and what does not

The realistic picture, so week one holds no surprises.

Your profile, your case studies and your rate: yes
Everything you wrote is yours. Import My Services turns a profile or listing into drafts you review first.
Your reviews and your rating: no
Reviews stay with the account that earned them. Zinn Hub requires a confirmed purchase before a review can be left, which is why an imported rating would carry no weight. Import My Services can carry up to ten across word for word as displayed history.
Insurance and cover: check what you have
Malt states that professional indemnity insurance is included on its projects. Zinn Hub does not provide professional indemnity cover, so if you rely on it, arrange your own before you take work here. What Zinn Hub does provide is payment protection: choose a Platform Protected Zinn and the buyer's payment is held until the order completes.
Your clients: yes, if you invite them
Read the terms of any platform you are on before moving a live engagement off it.

Switching from Malt: your questions answered

No. Zinn Hub asks for no exclusivity, so you can run both and judge the results yourself. Read Malt's own terms for anything that applies on their side before you move a live engagement.
0% commission on your first $500, then tiered rates that fall as you sell. The published ladder runs 0% to $500, 20% to $2,500, 15% to $10,000, 13% to $15,000, 10% to $20,000 and 8% above that, or a flat 8% on Pro Zinner and a flat 7% on Agency Zinner.
Not on Zinn Hub. Buyers pay no platform fee, so the price shown on a listing is the price charged. Malt publishes client service fees of 10% on its Starter plan, 15% on Advanced and a customised Enterprise rate, calculated on the amount the freelancer invoices excluding tax.
Because Malt describes the freelancer service fee in more than one place on its own help centre and the descriptions differ. Rather than pick one, this page prints none and points you at Malt's help centre for your own country. Publishing a number we cannot state cleanly from a single source would not be honest.
No. One published ladder applies to every Zinner, wherever they are and wherever the buyer is. All prices are stored and charged in USD, and buyers see an approximate equivalent in any of 59 display currencies.
No. Malt states that professional indemnity insurance is included on its projects; Zinn Hub does not provide it, so arrange your own cover if you rely on it. What Zinn Hub does provide is payment protection: choose a Platform Protected Zinn and the buyer's payment is held by Zinn Hub until the order completes.
Not as ratings. Reviews stay with the account that earned them on every platform. Zinn Hub requires a confirmed purchase before a review can be left, so an imported star rating would not mean anything. Import My Services can carry up to ten of your reviews across word for word as displayed history instead.
No. Zinn Hub is an independent marketplace and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or connected to Malt. Malt is named here only to describe what its own published help centre says. Malt in this page always means the freelance platform at malt.com.
