FAQs
The not-so-fine print.
Here’s everything you might want to know about how The Blue Mango works, whether you’re a client looking to kick off a project or a creator thinking about joining the co-op.
For Clients
You tell us what you need, we take it from there.
Our team reviews your brief, handpicks vetted creators who fit your goals and working style, then helps you kick off the project smoothly. No guesswork. No overwhelm.
Not yet, but it’s coming.
Right now, every project goes through our personal matchmaking flow to make sure it’s the best fit. Direct booking will roll out soon for repeat clients and trusted partners.
Everything runs through The Blue Mango for your safety and simplicity.
We handle contracts, invoicing, and payment releases, ensuring everyone gets paid fairly and on time.
From branding and websites to content, motion, and strategy, if it’s creative, we’ve got you covered.
We support both traditional and AI-assisted projects (without the buzzword overload).
No problem.
Start with a discovery call or a simple brief, and we’ll help you shape the right project before matching you with the right creators.
Not exactly.
We’re a hybrid: part co-op, part micro-agency, part innovation hub. That means you get agency-level guidance, freelancer-level flexibility, and co-op-level fairness.
For Creators
Designers, developers, builders, writers, strategists, motion artists, photographers, etc. Basically, if you create, you’re welcome.
We look for people who care about craft, collaboration, and curiosity.
Submit your profile via our creator application.
Once we review your portfolio and fit, you’ll go through a short vetting process before being added to the pool for potential matches.
You set your rates, we handle the logistics.
Once a project is completed and approved, you get paid fast. No chasing invoices, no weird middlemen.
We cap our platform share at 20%, and only on completed projects.
No subscriptions, no surprise fees. Just fair terms for both sides.
Absolutely not.
We choose what fits your skills, interests, and schedule together. We’ll keep the opportunities coming. You say yes only when it feels right.
Yes! In fact, we encourage it.
Some projects are solo, others need a small, agile team. Collaboration is what makes US tick.
General / Platform
We’re not a marketplace. We’re a movement.
Born from every side of the creative industry, we built The Blue Mango to fix what’s broken, from trust to transparency. We guide clients, support creators, and keep things fair for everyone.
Nope.
There’s no cost to sign up as a client or creator. You only pay (or get paid) when work happens.
We review portfolios, references, and experience. But also how creators collaborate and communicate.
Skill matters. So does chemistry.
We use smart tools to make decision faster and smoother. But people make the final call. Always.
We’ve got you covered.
We step in to mediate, support, and make things right. That’s one of the perks of our guided approach.

We’re real humans, not bots. Promise.
