Terms of Service
Full terms are being finalized. This is a plain-language summary of how Mula works today.
What Mula is
Mula is a local marketplace: employers post jobs with a budget, workers nearby bid on them, and the two sides agree on a price. Mula is the middleman that holds the money and keeps both sides honest.
Money and escrow
Jobs on Mula start at $25 — this applies to the job price itself, not the fee. Workers keep 100% of what they bid. Mula never takes a cut of a worker's pay. When an employer accepts a bid, a 15% service fee is added to the job price, shown before you accept a bid — the employer pays the agreed price plus that fee up front. (No service fee for the first 90 days after launch.) The worker's payment is held in escrow and released when the work is confirmed complete. Payouts reach the worker's bank in 2–3 business days through Stripe. Keep payments inside Mula — that's what makes them protected.
Reviews and conduct
After every job, both sides review each other. Ratings build your rank on the platform. Abandoning accepted jobs, lowball-and-bail bidding, or moving deals off-platform to dodge protections can lead to suspension.
The fine print
Mula is in early access. Features may change, and the complete legal terms — liability, disputes, arbitration, all of it — are being drafted with counsel and will replace this page before public launch.
