Pros

Flexibility and building long-term relationships

Cons

Self-employment taxes bring the hourly wage down to approximately that of a Walmart online order pick/pack employee; I inquired at my local Walmart. Some contractors juggle as many as 6 clients across multiple Belay platforms (ex. bookkeeping for one Belay client and VA work for another Belay client) in order to make enough money to offset the tax burden.

Thanks for leaving us a review. We appreciate you raising the topic of self-employment taxes, a significant consideration for independent contractors. We include a tax withholding account in our payment partner for our contractors to help alleviate this burden. We're always looking for ways to improve the BELAY contractor experience, and your feedback on recognition programs is valuable. We'll take it into account as we explore further options. We wish you the best in your future endeavors!
