How does Webbidev protect payments and contract delivery?

Webbidev mandates 100% upfront milestone escrow custody. Clients vault milestone capital before work commences. Each milestone is submitted with its staging link, recorded Git commits and CI test results; funds are released when the client approves, or automatically after 14 days without a response. Disputed deliverables are reviewed against the agreed Definition of Done, and the payment can be released, refunded or split.

What are the fees on Webbidev for clients and developers?

Clients can post contracts, review proposals, and benchmark developers 100% free of charge ($0). Developers pay a transparent 10%–13% flat commission only when milestones are completed and approved. There are no proposal bidding fees (zero connects charges). Company workspaces are free for up to 3 seats; Enterprise Pro ($199/month) adds unlimited seats.

How are developers vetted on Webbidev?

Developers can only bid after passing a technical assessment at Intermediate level or above. Senior and Elite levels are granted only after a written review graded by the Webbidev team and a live video interview, which requires a verified identity.

Why Webbidev

Built to eliminate freelance friction

Traditional platforms suffer from scope creep, ambiguous timelines, and payment disputes. Webbidev brings engineering rigor and financial safety to software delivery.

Zero Scope Creep
