Fixed-price contracts

What are Fixed-Price Contracts on ExpertGate?

A fixed-price contract on ExpertGate is an agreement where the customer pays a predetermined fee for services provided by the expert, established before the project begins. This fixed price remains constant, regardless of the actual costs or efforts required to complete the project. Additionally, a fixed-price contract can be broken down into several milestones, allowing the work to be delivered in parts. The number and value of milestones are decided mutually by the expert and customer. For example, a $200 project could have one single milestone of $200, or two milestones of $100 each, or four milestones of $50 each.

The primary purpose of fixed-price contracts is to provide customers with cost certainty and predictability, allowing them to budget effectively for their projects. For experts, these contracts shift the risk of cost overruns to them, incentivising accurate estimation of time and resources needed.

How do I determine a fair fixed price for my project on ExpertGate?

Determining a fair fixed price on ExpertGate involves key considerations for both customers and experts.

As a customer: Start by clearly defining the project scope and deliverables. Research market rates for similar projects to establish a realistic budget. Consider the expertise required; specialised skills or higher risks may warrant a higher price. Evaluate experts' qualifications and be open to negotiating the fixed price based on their estimates and project specifics.

As an expert: Estimate all costs, including labour and materials, while ensuring a reasonable profit margin. Base your pricing on the customer’s budget and market rates. Assess project risks, as higher-risk projects may require a higher fixed price. Be prepared to negotiate with the customer to reach a fair agreement that allows for profitable project delivery.

How are payments handled for fixed-price contracts on ExpertGate?

Payments for fixed-price contracts on ExpertGate are handled through a structured process that ensures transparency and accountability. At the point of sending or accepting a fixed-price contract offer, the customer is required to deposit funds for the first milestone or the full Contract amount if no milestones are specified. These funds are held in the platform’s secured account until released to the expert’s account or refunded to the customer, based on predetermined timelines and conditions. For more detailed information on how payments are handled for fixed-price contracts, please refer to the Payment and Pricing Policy.

What should I consider when setting milestones or deliverables for a fixed-price contract on ExpertGate?

When setting milestones or deliverables for a fixed-price contract on ExpertGate, consider the following factors:

Clearly define the scope of work for each milestone, specifying the tasks, expected outcomes, and evaluation criteria. 

Establish realistic timelines for each milestone, accounting for task complexity and the expert's availability while allowing some flexibility for unforeseen challenges.

Align the payment structure with the milestones, ensuring each milestone has a corresponding payment that reflects the value of the completed work. Regular check-ins and updates can facilitate necessary adjustments to milestones or deliverables, keeping the project on track and meeting the Customer's expectations.

What considerations should I keep in mind when using fixed-price contracts on ExpertGate?

When using fixed-price contracts on ExpertGate, both customers and experts should consider several important factors to ensure a successful collaboration.

For customers, it’s essential to clearly define the project scope, including specific tasks, deliverables, and performance criteria. Further, establish reasonable deadlines for each milestone, taking into account the complexity of tasks and the Expert’s availability. Ensure that the payment structure aligns with the milestones, with each milestone reflecting the value of the work completed. After the expert submits work for approval, review it within the specified timeframe to maintain project momentum. Open communication with the expert is crucial; regular check-ins can help address any concerns or changes in project scope.

For experts, make sure the project scope is well-defined and agreed upon before starting, outlining specific tasks and deliverables to avoid misunderstandings. Carefully estimate the time and resources required, considering potential challenges and building in a buffer for unexpected issues. Establish achievable milestones with clear deadlines to track progress and stay on schedule. Ensure that each milestone has a corresponding payment amount that reflects the value of the work. Keep detailed records of all communications and agreements, as this documentation can be invaluable in case of disputes.

Are there any upfront costs or deposits required for fixed-price contracts?

Yes, there are upfront costs or deposits required for fixed-price contracts on ExpertGate. When a customer and an expert agree to a fixed-price contract, the customer must deposit funds for the first milestone or, if there are no milestones, the full amount of the contract. This deposit is held in the platform’s secured account until it is released to the expert's account or refunded back to the customer’s account. The funds are released in accordance with the Payment and Pricing Policy.

How does payment work on ExpertGate?

Payment on ExpertGate is facilitated through a secure payment system to protect both customers and experts. When engaging in fixed-price or hourly contracts or booking training and consultation sessions, customers must deposit funds into the platform secured account, ensuring payments are secured until services are satisfactorily completed. Once project/research project/consultation/training requirements and deliverables are met, funds are released to the expert in accordance with the Payment and Price Policy.

If you do not request a disbursement, ExpertGate will automatically release the funds within 30 days after they are added to your expert account, provided specific conditions are met, detailed in the Payment and Price Policy. 

In which currency are payments handled and processed on the platform?

Payments on ExpertGate are primarily handled and processed in USD (United States Dollar). All transactions, including deposits and withdrawals, are conducted in this currency to ensure consistency. If experts choose to withdraw their earnings in a currency other than USD, foreign currency conversion charges may apply, and the conversion rate may differ from standard rates, so it's advisable for users to check with their financial institutions for potentially better rates. 

What payment methods are accepted and supported on ExpertGate?

The primary payment processing is handled through Stripe, which allows for secure deposits and withdrawals. Customers are required to deposit funds into our platform’s secured account at the time of booking a service, whether it be for fixed-price contracts, hourly contracts, training programs, or consultations.

For further details, please refer to our Terms of Service. 

Is my money safe in the Platform Secured Account on ExpertGate?

Yes, your money is safe in the platform secured account on ExpertGate. When you deposit funds into our secured account, those funds are securely held and can only be released according to the terms outlined in the Payment and Pricing Policy. ExpertGate collaborates with Stripe to manage these funds, ensuring they are kept separate from the platform's operational accounts for added security. Additionally, in the event of bankruptcy or unforeseen circumstances, ExpertGate commits not to use user funds to satisfy its debts. The release of funds is contingent on customer approval after service completion, providing a safeguard against unauthorised transactions.

How do I ensure payment security during consultation sessions and training programs on ExpertGate?

To ensure payment security during consultation sessions and training programs on ExpertGate, it is crucial to use the platform's secured payment system for all transactions. When you book a consultation session or a training program on ExpertGate, your payment is automatically deposited into the platform secured account. This ensures that funds are securely held until the session/program is completed and the customer is satisfied. Avoid making payments outside of ExpertGate, as doing so eliminates the platform's ability to guarantee payment security and support. ExpertGate’s secured payment system allows for a 14-day review period after the consultation and training program, during which time the customer can assess the service before funds are released. If you pay outside the platform, you forfeit these protections and risk potential disputes without the support of ExpertGate. Always conduct transactions through the platform to ensure transparency, reliability, and security in your payments.

Dispute management

What steps are involved in resolving disputes on ExpertGate?

To resolve disputes on ExpertGate, users should first attempt to settle the issue through amicable negotiations. If this fails, ExpertGate provides a structured dispute resolution process. The process begins when a user formally initiates a dispute, notifying the other party. If the other party contests the dispute, it is escalated to a neutral mediator. The mediator sets a deadline for all parties to submit relevant evidence and documentation. After reviewing all materials, the mediator makes a final, binding decision based on the merits of the case. All information exchanged is kept confidential, and parties must accept the mediator's ruling as the final resolution. For more detailed information on our dispute resolution mechanism, please refer to our Terms of Service.

Are there any fees associated with filing a dispute on ExpertGate?

How are refunds handled in case of unresolved disputes on ExpertGate?

On ExpertGate, if a dispute arises, the transaction is temporarily paused to prevent further charges or actions and the funds held in the platform's secured account for the cancelled contract or milestone remain securely in the platform's secured account until the dispute is resolved. If the dispute remains unresolved, the dispute resolution process will be initiated according to the terms and conditions enumerated in the Payment and Pricing Policy to make a decision regarding the refund. This decision may involve a full or partial refund, depending on the circumstances. Once a decision is made and a refund is approved, it is processed through the original payment method.

Intellectual property and ownership

Who owns the intellectual property (IP) of the work done?

The ownership of intellectual property (IP) resulting from work done by an expert for a customer is determined by an agreement between the two parties before the project begins. ExpertGate does not claim any ownership of the IP involved in projects on its platform and is not responsible for any related issues. It is essential for both the expert and customer to establish a clear agreement regarding IP ownership prior to starting any work. Please refer to ExpertGate's Intellectual Property (IP) Policy to know in detail about your ownership and intellectual property rights when engaging in services on our platform.

What happens to the IP if the project is cancelled midway?

If a project is cancelled midway, the ownership and rights over the intellectual property (IP) developed up to that point will depend on the specific agreement between the parties involved. Generally, any work completed and paid for up to the point of cancellation may belong to the customer. However, unpaid work or incomplete deliverables might remain with the expert. It is crucial for the parties to have a well-drafted agreement in place that clearly addresses IP ownership, usage rights, and the consequences of project cancellation. This will help avoid disputes and ensure a smooth transition in the event of a midway cancellation.

Can an expert reuse the work created for me in other projects?

The expert's ability to reuse work created for a customer depends on the specific agreement between the parties. If the agreement grants the customer full IP ownership, the Expert cannot reuse the material without permission, as the customer has exclusive rights. However, if the expert retains certain rights or licences, they may be able to leverage general skills, knowledge, and techniques gained during the project, even if the specific deliverables remain the customer's property. The agreement should also address confidentiality to ensure the expert does not disclose or misuse any of the customer's confidential information when reusing work in other projects. Detailed provisions around IP ownership, usage rights, and confidentiality are crucial to enabling appropriate reuse while protecting each party's interests.

What should I do if I believe my IP rights have been violated?

If you believe your intellectual property (IP) rights have been violated on the ExpertGate platform, you should follow the notice and takedown process outlined in the IP Policy. 

Can I request a Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA) before sharing project details?

Yes, you can request an NDA before sharing project details with your counterparty on ExpertGate. Requesting an NDA is a common practice when engaging in projects that involve confidential information or intellectual property. Please note that the NDA is a private agreement between you and your counterparty. ExpertGate is not a party to the NDA and does not enforce or monitor compliance with its terms. Ensuring the NDA adequately protects your interests is your responsibility as a user of our platform.
