    Upwork and Fiverr details are taken from each company's own published fee and payment documentation, last checked in August 2026, and may change. "Varies" means the option exists for some countries or payout methods but not consistently for Kenya. WorkKE is not affiliated with either platform.

    No commission on earnings

    WorkKE takes no cut of your job payment. Only the mobile-money or card processing fee applies, and it is shown before you confirm.

    Paid to M-Pesa

    Withdraw straight to your M-Pesa number — no bank account or foreign currency account required.

    Remote and local in one place

    Hire remote freelancers for digital work and nearby cybercafés for printing, scanning and document services.
