How Commissionly works

A commission moves through a predictable lifecycle.

The lifecycle

1. Post — a client describes the work and sets a budget.
2. Propose — developers apply with rates and cover letters.
3. Hire — the client picks a developer; funds are held under Buyer Protection.
4. Deliver — the developer submits the work.
5. Approve — the client accepts, and funds are released.

Where things live

Clients manage everything from their account dashboard; developers and studios have their own dashboards for proposals, orders, and payouts.
