Charge enough to actually take home $100

Most freelancers price the hour and forget Fiverr’s cut, unpaid proposals, and tax. This kit does the arithmetic first, then gives you a clean invoice to collect.

The $12.50/hour trap

You want $100 take-home this month. You can bill 8 hours. Fiverr takes 20%.

Guessing

$12.50/hr

$100 ÷ 8 hours. After the 20% cut you keep $80. You miss the goal.

This kit

$15.63/hr floor

$100 ÷ 0.8 ÷ 8. Same hours, goal actually hit. The calculator also folds in unpaid admin and tax.

How to set a freelance hourly rate after fees

Why dividing a take-home goal by hours undercharges on Fiverr and Upwork, and the formula that actually hits the number.

Freelance invoice template: what to include and how to PDF it

The fields a freelance invoice needs, how invoice numbers work, and how to save a clean PDF from the browser.

Fiverr fees: what hourly rate you need to take home $100

Fiverr keeps 20%. Here is the hourly floor that still leaves $100 after the cut.

Upwork fees: price the hour after a 0–15% service fee

Upwork’s freelancer service fee is variable. Work the take-home math at 10% and at 15% so a contract does not miss the goal.
