How do I find jobs?
Clients post jobs on PromptBase for custom prompts, apps and other AI work. You can browse and search them on the jobs page, filtered by price and the skills they need.
The first time, you choose to join as a creator on the hire page and fill in a short profile: a title, a bio, your skills and your hourly rate.
How do I apply to a job?
Open the job and send a proposal: a cover letter saying why you're a good fit, and the price you'd do it for.
Each proposal costs 50 credits. If the job is cancelled, removed or expires, the credits are returned to you.
Don't send the finished work with your proposal. Wait until you've been hired.
I don't have enough credits to apply
Every account gets 10 free credits a month, which is fewer than a proposal costs. You earn more credits when you sell, buy or review prompts, and PromptBase Pro includes credits every month. See how to get credits.
What happens when a client wants to hire me?
They send you an offer, which appears on your jobs dashboard. Read the terms, then accept it to start the contract. You and the client then get a shared workroom with a chat, the milestones and everything else for the project.
How do I get paid for a job?
- Fixed price: the client pays into escrow before you start, so the money is already held by PromptBase. You submit your work in the workroom, and the client has 14 days to release the payment or request changes. If they do neither, it is released to you automatically.
- Hourly: you log your hours in the workroom with a note of what you did, up to the weekly limit you agreed. The client is invoiced each Monday for the week before.
Your earnings are added to your PromptBase balance and paid out in the same way as your prompt sales. See how payouts work.
What are the fees on jobs?
PromptBase takes 10% of what you earn from a job. A $100.00 job pays you $90.00.
A client has asked for a refund, what do I do?
You have 14 days to respond in the workroom. You can accept the request, or dispute it if you think it's unfair, in which case PromptBase reviews it and decides. If you don't respond in time, the refund is approved automatically.
If you've already been paid for the work, an approved refund comes out of your PromptBase balance.
