Question 1

How does the registration and rate submission process work?

Accepted Answer

When you register as an engineer on Truly, you'll create your profile and submit your desired rate (hourly or monthly). Our team will review your profile, skills, and experience. The verification process typically takes 24-48 hours. We may request additional documentation or conduct a brief technical interview to ensure quality standards.

Question 2

How much does it cost to join?

Accepted Answer

Joining Truly is completely free for engineers. We earn a commission percentage on each transaction when you successfully get hired through our platform. There are no upfront costs or subscription fees.

Question 3

Can I set my own rates?

Accepted Answer

Yes! You have complete control over your hourly or monthly rates during registration. You can update your rates at any time from your dashboard. When a company sends a request for your rate, our administrators will review and approve the request. The final rate for the engagement is determined by Truly upon approval and after both parties sign the NDA documents.

Question 4

How do I receive payments?

Accepted Answer

All payments are processed securely through the Truly platform on a monthly basis. Companies pay Truly monthly, and Truly pays you according to the agreed terms. Payments are made monthly with invoices issued to companies, and you will receive your payment accordingly. You can withdraw earnings via bank transfer or other supported payment methods. All payments must go through our platform - direct payments outside the platform are not permitted.

Question 5

What is the NDA process?

Accepted Answer

Before a request is approved, Truly will send NDA (Non-Disclosure Agreement) documents that both you and the company must sign. This ensures confidentiality and protection for both parties. Once both parties have signed the NDA, the request can be approved and the engagement can begin.

Question 6

Who do I have a contract with?

Accepted Answer

All contracts are entered into directly with Truly (operated by Delix Ltd, BULSTAT: BG204861966). You do not have a direct contract with the company - your contract is with Truly, which provides security and ensures all payments are processed correctly.

Question 7

How does the request and approval process work?

Accepted Answer

When you find an engineer you'd like to work with, you can send a request for their rate. Our platform administrators will review your request. Before approval, we'll send NDA (Non-Disclosure Agreement) documents for both you and the engineer to sign. Once both parties have signed the NDA, we'll approve the request and determine the final rate for the engagement. All engineers on Truly go through a rigorous verification process before being approved.

Question 8

What are the fees and how does payment work?

Accepted Answer

Truly charges a commission percentage on each transaction, which is included in the rate structure. There are no hidden costs or upfront fees. You only pay when you successfully hire an engineer through our platform. All payments are processed on a monthly basis through invoices issued by Truly. Each month, we issue an invoice to your company with a maximum payment period of one month. For non-fixed-price contracts, the invoice includes a timesheet with the hours worked. All payments must be made through the Truly platform - you pay Truly, and Truly pays the engineer. Direct payments outside the platform are strictly prohibited. Contact us for detailed pricing information.

Truly is operated by Delix Ltd, registered in Bulgaria (BULSTAT: BG204861966). For companies outside of Bulgaria, VAT is not charged on our services in accordance with Bulgarian and EU tax regulations for B2B services. For companies within Bulgaria, standard VAT rates apply as per Bulgarian tax law. All invoices will clearly indicate the VAT status based on your company's location.
