who gets it.

Hire an independent developer. Try what they build on Velcio Cloud before you accept it and take the source.

Browse developersHow hiring works

A ZIP file is not
a finished project.

During review, the final delivery runs on Velcio Cloud. Open it, use it and check the work against the brief before handover.

Clear from first brief to final handover.

  1. Choose a developer

    Browse public profiles or post your brief. Agree the work, price and revisions.

  2. Fund the project

    Your card is authorised for the full price. You can cancel without charge for 24 hours. After that, payment is taken and work begins.

  3. Review what they built

    Review starts only after the final delivery is running on Velcio Cloud and ready for you to test.

  4. Take ownership

    Accept the work to complete handover and receive the source. There is no second project charge. Activate Cloud hosting to keep it running, with 30 days of Starter-equivalent hosting for one replica included.

Pricing and payment details

Time with the software, not screenshots of it.

Test pages, forms and workflows in a production environment. Ask for changes within the included rounds or open a dispute before handover.

The developer cannot see your production secret values. Source access moves to you when the project is accepted.

Velcio Cloud hosts the final delivery during review. After handover, choose a paid Cloud plan to keep it running or take the source and host it elsewhere.

The practical bits.

What makes Velcio different?
Velcio is a marketplace for commissioning websites, web apps and Worker automations from independent developers. The final delivery runs on Velcio Cloud during review, so you can test the working software before accepting it. You receive access to the source at handover.
When am I charged?
When you fund a project, your card is authorised for the full price. You can cancel without charge for 24 hours. After that, payment is taken and work starts. Accepting the delivery does not charge you again.
What if the work is wrong?
Test the delivery on Velcio Cloud before you accept it. You can request changes within the included rounds or open a dispute. If the review period ends without either action, the project is accepted automatically.
Do I own the code? Am I locked into hosting?
When you accept, you receive the delivered source. Each completed paid new-app project includes 30 days of Starter-equivalent Cloud hosting for one replica, starting on first activation after acceptance. Larger plans, extra replicas and paid data services cost extra. Hosting then continues at its normal rate unless cancelled. You can also host elsewhere.
How are payments and secrets handled?
Card payments are handled by Stripe. You set production secrets yourself; their values are encrypted and never shown to the developer. The developer only declares which environment variables the software needs.
