Tipping is a great way to show appreciation for a job well done. On Fiverr, clients can easily leave a tip for their freelancer after completing an order.
When can I leave a tip?
- You can tip your freelancer once the order is marked as Complete.
The “Tip Now” option appears:
After leaving a review on the web. - Immediately after order completion on the Fiverr app (no review required)
- For Hourly orders, the tip option becomes available once the contract is completed and a review is added.
The tipping window is open for 30 days after the order is marked as complete.
How much can I tip?
- Minimum tip: $5
- Tip limits based on order value:
For orders below $25 → Tip up to $25
For orders $25 or more → Tip up to 100% of the order value
How does payment work?
- When you click “Tip Now”, funds will first be deducted from your Fiverr Balance.
- If your balance is insufficient, a payment window will open, allowing you to complete the transaction using an alternative method.
- Tips are charged with Fiverr’s standard service fee.
FAQs
Just like regular payments, tips follow the 14-day clearance period before being available in the freelancer’s account.
Tips will appear as a separate line on the Revenue page and generate separate invoices, as they are counted as distinct transactions.
- If you're unable to leave a tip, check the following:
- The order must be marked as Complete.
- On desktop/web, you must leave a review first before tipping.
- The 30-day tipping window may have passed.
If more than 30 days have passed since your order was completed, the Tip Now option will no longer be available. However, you can still show appreciation by:
- Contact your freelancer via the inbox.
- Ask them to create a Custom Offer for a new order in the amount you'd like to tip.
If you proceed this way, be sure to mention clearly in the new order that the payment is intended as a tip for a previous project. This ensures transparency and helps avoid disputes if the order is reviewed.
