A. Yes – Settlu Freelancers set themselves apart from the rest by building personal relationships with their customers and delivering the highest level of personal service and care that can be found in the industry.

It’s our transparent approach to relocation and travel that makes us more than a little different from the rest. You’ll be able to offer your customers an authentic, tailor-made service, creating bespoke, ‘one-off’ itineraries that cannot be found anywhere else, not even on Youtube.

And that’s what keeps customers coming back to rehire. In fact, 96% say they would recommend Settlu to their friends, family and colleagues.

A. No – The vast majority of Freelancers work from home, but you don’t have to.

Some tasks do require meeting with a client if you are a Tour Guide or Airport Services for example.

Remote work is also an option. As long as there is a secure internet connection, you can log on, work and discuss with your customer whether you will meet physically or complete the job virtually.

A. No – We focus on acquiring Freelancers who already have experience in the relocation and travel industries. This means you already know how to do your job & you are equipped with skills and certification. 

We do have a How It Works section to help you get started. If you are a new to freelancing we have resources like Self Promote: 7 Ways To Gain Your First Clients Freelancing.

Additionally we will be adding FAQ videos (coming soon) to help you understand how to utilise Settlu for your freelance business. Any further training is self-guided and heavily influenced to your previous experience.

Even better is getting repeat customers and people recommending your services. This shouldn’t present a problem if you give your full commitment and follow our advice on best practice.

A. You’ll be paid any time you request a Payout of more than $10 by Paypal or bank transfer, after the job has been marked as COMPLETED.
