How we keep fees low
No bloat
We built iWork lean. No big offices, no costly middlemen — just a tight team building the best platform for African talent.
Local infrastructure
Native M-Pesa integration cuts our payment processing costs. Savings we pass directly to you as lower fees.
Volume over margin
We grow by helping more freelancers earn more — not by squeezing higher fees from fewer users.
