    Discover the flexibility & security of milestones
    'Milestones' is a feature that lets you break up your project into smaller parts with distinct deliverables & deadlines. Key benefits of project milestones include:
    • Clear project roadmap

      Communicate clear expectations regarding project stages, deliverables & timing.

    • Built-in checkpoints

      Use milestones as built-in checkpoints to ensure work is going as planned.

    • Pay-as-you-go

      Paying by milestone limits risk and helps ensure all parties honour their commitments.

    • Limited Commitment

      Cancel a contract for any reason before starting work on the next milestone.

04

Pay

Pay securely only when you're satisfied with results.

Start each milestone to let your freelancer begin work, and release payment only when the milestone is complete and you've approved it. Then move on to the next milestone.
