WHAT IS JOBBER-CHAIN
JobberChain
is a decentralized freelancing Marketplace and IDO Launchpad platform built on Binance Smart Chain technology, where users can find all required professionals needed for their Blockchain projects, while freelancers can seek jobs or micro-tasks and get paid with $JOBBER Token.

OVERVIEW
Over the years, the freelance market has grown wider becoming the best option adopted by developers, designers, writes, editors, producers and etc to monetize their skills

Multiple projects has been established by linking clients to potential freelancers.

It is also obvious that Blockchain technology has grown much bigger over the years from Cryptocurrency to NFTs which is fast growing with the daily adoption by businesses and individuals.

Working online as a freelancer exposes one to various risks. Some of these risks include identity theft, lack of guarantee for hours worked pay, and the high possibility of losing the work as a result of mild adjustments.

Despite the disadvantages and risks in the freelance industry, it is obviously a lucrative one. Considering the rate of population growth and the gradual increase in internet literacy, the freelance industry is bound to grow much further. Research shows most blockchain projects developers, designers and content producers can sometimes be difficult to approach while most freelancers struggle to get people who need their services. This, therefore, means that there is an inherent need to undertake measures to curb some of the challenges faced by blockchain users and freelancers presently. Introducing a decentralized blockchain technology is an optimal solution in this regard.

THE PROBLEM
Even though the current freelancing websites are opened to general use which include Blockchain related freelancers, payment issue and high commission fees by current freelancing marketplace can be frustrating.

Problems with the current traditional freelance marketplace are not limited to Credit card cashback issues and huge fees for both freelancers and employers, 20% of freelancers are unbanked, biased and inefficient disputes, job value is often limited, fake reviews and late payments.

Research shows Freelancers lose a good percentage of their earnings to the current traditional freelancing platforms. These platforms are technically existing freelance companies such as Upwork and Fiverr among others. These platforms could potentially be eliminated through an established decentralized network that would act as a link between the freelancer and the client, eradicating unnecessary fees and surcharges.

Besides above-discussed issues, hiring people on the existing freelance websites exposes the participants to the risk of identity theft.

OUR SOLUTION
JobberChain
is built to address these above issues by introducing a decentralized freelancing platform powered by blockchain technology to eliminate credit card chargeback problems, automating jury processes in case of disputes and providing instant payout settlement with extremely low fees as low as 0–1% which will be used for maintaining the platform.

Some of the problems currently experienced by freelancers and users on the existing freelancing platforms which we aim at solving are but not limited to;

  1. Fair Dispute Settlements
    We are introducing the Jobber Dispute Panel in which every member of the panel will be randomly auto assigned from freelancers with a high-profile ranking of 4 Star and above to decide on matters of arbitration. The names of the parties involved in the dispute aremasked to ensure fair dispute settlement.

2. Secure Payments System
Most common problems of existing freelancing platforms are delay or non-payments. The clients and freelancers have no control over payments. Common issues experienced after project submission can be clients not satisfied by the quality of job done by a freelancer or the freelancer does not get paid for the job. We use a Binance Smart Chain escrow payment system which holds the contract fees until the set targets of the contract are met. Our system is designed to release funds upon project completion considering the interests of the parties involved (Jobber and Client).

3. Low Transaction Fee (1% and below)
Most Existing freelancing platforms charges as much as 20–30% on freelancers first $500 earning, 10% on $501-$9,999 and 5% on $10, 000 and above. On any signed contract between a freelancer and a client, JobberChain charges as low as 1% of the fees payable for a job offer.

4. Delay in paying Freelancer’s Revenue
The waiting period for the payouts to reflect in the freelancer’s bank account is often discouraging. With JobberChain, freelancers get their revenue on every job done paid directly to their wallet upon completion through our secured escrow system.

5. Cryptocurrency Accepted
The fact that JobberChain accepts only JOBBER Token for payments, JobberChain platform provides a flexible functional wallet system that enables clients to send and receive or buy JOBBER Token with over 10+ common cryptocurrencies and fiat.

6. Elimination of Fake Reviews
In order to eliminate the common fake reviewing which exists on most of the existing freelancing sites where individuals write fake reviews by means of unique identity and email addresses. Jobberchain reviews system is programmed to work with clients and freelancers’ contract addresses, which means they could only post a review from their contract address involved in the transaction.

7. Unbiased Dispute Resolution — Jobber Dispute Panel
JobberChain
platform allows fair and unbiased dispute resolution through our Jobber Dispute Panel system. The panel are randomly auto selected from freelancers with a high-profile ranking into each disputes settlement. Every freelancer in the panel is entitled to cast a discerning vote that favors the rightful party and the consequences will be executed according to the Jobber Dispute Panel. After the arbitration process, 1% of the funds in the Escrow will be held as the platform fees and the remaining funds are released from Escrow to the deserving counterparts of the dispute. The names of the parties involved in the dispute are masked to ensure fair dispute settlement

THE PLATFORM
The JobberChain platform is designed an easy-to-use user interface for clients and freelancers to help post their requirements with ease.

Clients post their required jobs for their projects, our system auto suggest categories of Jobbers and freelancers (jobbers) can bid for them to get the desired jobs.

To ensure the authenticity of the users, our platform is designed to perform identity verifications whenever necessary. The unique identities of clients and freelancers will be based on their blockchain addresses, making it difficult to forge. When a contract is awarded by the client, he/she is required to deposit and approve the jobber fee in the JOBBER token. The platform will utilize smart contracts and Escrow mechanism to hold the fee and perform disbursement of the collected funds on obligations met.
