Field Nation Fees

While it is free to sign up and apply for jobs, many independent contractors may skip over the fine print and not realize that Field Nation charges several fees. First, Field Nation will charge service providers a fee for the access and use of the platform. This fee is deducted from the amounts payable to the contractor by a buyer for the services performed. The fee will be up to 10 percent of the total amount payable.

Second, Field Nation charges a General Liability Insurance Fee, which is deducted directly from the total amount payable (this fee is charged if the contractor doesn't have a current certificate of insurance uploaded in their profile).

Last, if a company (or Field Nation) requires a service provider to have a Workers' Compensation or Occupational Accident Insurance to perform a work order, Field Nation will charge a Trust and Safety Fee, which is deducted from the total amount payable.
