  • 'Platform' - software and services provided by IRL work.

2. Fees and Payment Terms

2.1 Success Fee Definition. The 'Success Fee' is a fee that an Employer will pay IRL work after successfully hiring a Candidate.

2.2 The Success Fee is 3% of the Candidate's minimum annual base salary, as listed in their profile, at the time of the Employers first message to the Candidate. For example, if a candidate lists $100,000, but you end up offering them $120,000 then you'll only pay them 3% of $100,000, so the Success Fee would be $3,000.

2.3 The Success Fee is payable within 15 days of the Candidate signing their agreement. The Success Fee is due whether the Candidate is hired as an employee or as a contractor. If you hire the Candidate part-time, please contact us at support@irlwork.com, and we'll work with you to fairly pro-rata the Success Fee.

2.5 30 day guarantee. If you fire or layoff the candidate, or they quit before their 30th day on the job, then we'll refund you the Success Fee. You must email us by the 30th day after their start date for this to be valid.
