This data can give you more information about each buyer’s experience and behavior on Fiverr—so you can provide a better service and make more informed decisions.

How it works

You can now access data-driven insights about your buyer directly in the inbox.

  1. Go to your inbox and open a message with a buyer.

  2. Within the inbox message, you’ll see Activity on the right side of the screen. You can choose to see metrics for all time or the last 60 days. 
      • If you haven’t worked with the buyer in the past, you’ll see data for the buyer’s activity on Fiverr, based on public reviews (unless noted otherwise).

      • If you have worked with the buyer in the past, you’ll see data for those orders in the With you tab. Data for their activity with all sellers will be in the On Fiverr tab.

      • If there is no data available for a particular field, it will be left blank.

Repeat order rate

Explanation  How to use it
Only shown for activity with all sellers, this field will display “High” if the buyer is likely to order again from a seller they’ve worked with in the past (based on public reviews). Get a deeper understanding of whether or not the buyer is likely to reorder.


Order completion rate 

Explanation  How to use it

Shows the buyer’s completion rate for orders placed with you. 


For order activity with all sellers, the field will display “High” if similar buyers tend to complete orders. 


Note: If you don’t see this field, it could just be an indication that the buyer works best with clear communication and well-defined expectations.

Lower completion rates indicate that you may need to invest more effort into setting the right expectations and, as always, delivering a great service.
