Listing Rates

Set your rate corresponding with the language pair. We strongly believe that interpreters should be able to demand the rates that is fair to them given their skill and the competing market. If you are unsure about what rate to demand, it is advised to research rates other interpreters are charging in your area. See more about Service Rate .

• 8 Hours : Reflects that you are able to provide 8 hours of service on a given day.
• 4 Hours : Reflects that you are able to provide 4 hours of service on a given day. Charge per hour for 4 hours of service is usually higher because of the fact that less work is given while occupying a large portion of time.
• 1 Hour : Reflects 1 hour of interpretation service. Reflects 1 hour of interpretation service. This is the rate that clients are charged in addition to the initial 4 or 8 hours selected. Clients cannot select 1 hour as a baseline service.

- Plan 1 : Prices by the hour may be higher as fewer service hours are purchased. This is an example, not a mendotory.
- Plan 2 : Prices by the hour may not be affected by the number of hours purchased. This is an example, not a mendotory.
