Peace of Mind Guarantee

Updated this week

At Dribbble, hiring creative talent comes with built-in peace of mind. With trusted professional designers and real human support at every step, your experience is designed to help you move forward with confidence. Our Peace of Mind Guarantee ensures your project, payments, and final deliverables are always protected.


Confidently Hire With Dribbble's Payment Protection

Dribbble's project funding is designed to keep your money protected while your designer does the work. No payment is released to the designer until you're satisfied with the final deliverables.

Here's how it works:

  1. You agree on a proposal and fund the project. This gives your designer complete confidence to start work.

  2. Dribbble holds your funds securely while the work is in progress.

  3. When the work is complete, you review the work and release the payout only once you're happy with the final deliverables.

🧘‍♀️ With Payment Protection, Dribbble ensures you remain in control of your project from start to finish.


Work With Real Designers With Real Portfolios

When you hire on Dribbble, you're choosing from a trusted and time-tested creative community. Many designers have built their careers and portfolios here for years, giving you a clear look into their expertise and experience. This isn't a place for pop-up accounts — it's home to real professionals who care about the work they share and the clients they work with.

🤝 For more than a decade, people have been hiring designers on Dribbble, including teams at companies like Amazon, Meta, Netflix, and Salesforce.


Milestones That Move Your Project Forward

Milestones help you break your project into clear, manageable steps. With project milestones, you can:

  • Pay step by step, instead of committing everything upfront

  • See progress clearly as each stage is completed

  • Give feedback along the way instead of all at once

🧱 Each milestone represents a defined portion of the work, a moment to check in, and a chance to make sure things are moving in the right direction.


Human Support When You Need It Most

Dribbble offers multiple layers of support to ensure you always have access to the help you need.

For quick questions, you'll find fast-access help articles and AI-assisted guidance. When you need more in-depth help, our dedicated support team of project experts is here to step in to help move your project forward or to resolve disputes through fair and efficient Project Mediation.

🛟 Support access is always right there on your project dashboard, so help is always within reach.


You Own the Final Work—Guaranteed

When your project is complete and payment has been made through Dribbble, our Terms of Service ensure you own your final deliverables.

You also receive a perpetual, royalty-free, worldwide license to any pre-existing tools or intellectual property your designer used to create the work. This gives you the freedom to use, modify, distribute, and build on your deliverables without needing additional permissions.
