Fiverr vs Upwork for app marketing

Fiverr

• You browse and buy “gigs” sellers have packaged in advance.
• Buyers pay a service fee on top of the price (5.5% at the time of writing), plus a small-order fee on small orders. Sellers keep 80%.
• Good for standard, well-defined tasks. Less good when you need someone to think about your specific app and audience.

Upwork

• You post a job and freelancers send proposals, paying Connects to apply.
• Clients pay a marketplace fee and a contract-initiation fee; freelancers pay a service fee of up to 15%.
• Good for longer or hourly work. Screening proposals takes time.

Fees change; check Upwork's pricing and Fiverr's help centre for current numbers.

Shoutyard

• You post your app and what a win looks like; people who like that channel send up to 5 fixed-price offers written for your app.
• You pay the offer price with nothing on top. The marketer pays one 15% fee when they get paid.
• Money is held until you approve, with an automatic refund if nothing is delivered.
• Small and new: fewer people than Fiverr or Upwork, all focused on distribution for new apps.

The short version

Shoutyard is the distribution marketplace for vibe coders. Post your app in about a minute, get up to five fixed-price offers from real people who like this work, and your payment is held until you approve it.
