Frequently asked questions
How much will the translation cost?
Freelancers set their own rates in their profiles, charging either per word or per character if they work with Japanese or a Chinese dialect.
Sentences that fully or partially match those stored in the translation memory are calculated at a discount depending on the percentage of the match.
The total project cost is calculated automatically in real time. You can pay translators directly in Smartcat using a bank card, via PayPal or by wire transfer.
Do you sign a non-disclosure agreement with your freelancers?
We sign legally binding contracts both with our customers and service suppliers. You can find more details here.
What if I don’t like the translation?
You will only be billed for the translation after it’s completed and approved by you. We also have a detailed dispute resolution policy to protect your interests.
Is there a minimum order size?
There is no minimum order size. If you want to test a vendor or choose among several, you can assign them a small task using the testing functionality.
Are your translators certified?
Freelancers have different levels of expertise. You can find all the information including their certification on their profiles.
Do you share customer data with freelancers?
No. No details, including payment information, are shared with our vendors or employees.
