A clear agreement before the work.

Defined projects are normally quoted by milestone. The exact payment schedule belongs in the proposal or contract. Projects are not purchased automatically through this site.

Part or all of discovery may be credited against a sufficiently large implementation only when explicitly stated in the quote; never automatically.

External costs and scope

Hosting, domains, SaaS subscriptions, paid APIs, software licences, hardware, vendor charges, travel, premium plugins, email/SMS usage and cloud/database consumption are excluded unless explicitly included.

Any markup on these costs must be explicitly described in the agreement. Work involving personal health information requires separate privacy and security scoping before access or implementation.

Start with the right scope.
