For IT professionals
Flat pay per credit. No bidding wars.
Every job on TechGig pays a flat, published rate of $20 to $36 per credit, depending on your tier. That rate has nothing to do with what the customer pays. You see the credits before you accept, you never bid against another tech, and payouts go out weekly through Stripe.

This is the actual pay structure. Rates are flat per credit and do not depend on what the customer pays. Specialist-tier jobs also carry a 1.5× credit multiplier, so the same job is worth more credits. Payouts weekly via Stripe.
The tier system
Four tiers. You move up by doing the work.
No tenure tax, no manager review cycles. Promotion is automatic: the platform checks your completed jobs and rating and moves you up the moment you qualify. Tiers only move up. There is no demotion.
