After briefly down, Fiverr services restored in Pakistan

Recently social media platforms are buzzing with disinformation clamming that Fiverr has made Pakistani freelancers unavailable on its platform.

Regardless of that, after careful examination, it’s clear that these allegations are false and seem to be a calculated attempt to sow discord among Pakistan’s freelancer community.

A thorough investigation conducted on a number of social media sites revealed that the story being circulated is not fresh, but rather stems from an earlier incident that was reported on May 11, 2023.  Regarding this issue there have been no recent notifications or updates from Fiverr’s official community groups, proving that the circulating information is groundless.

The misinformation reappeared on August 13, reportedly spread by accounts linked to a political party. An inspection of Fiverr’s platform revealed that Pakistani profiles remain active in spite of these claims and the platform is operating as usual, with Pakistani freelancers fully functional.

Moreover, it is well-known that in South internet connectivity issues are common, including South Asia. Fiverr occasionally notifies freelancers in this area of connectivity problems; however, these problems are common and do not signal a more serious issue with the platform’s functionality or availability.

A video confirmation was provided to address the concerns, broadcasting that Pakistani freelancers’ profiles are certainly active and can be independently confirmed. This proof refutes the untrue allegations and reassures users that Fiverr will always be there to serve its international community, which includes Pakistani freelancers.

The spread of this out to dated and deceiving news calls the attention to the need for caution and fact-checking in the digital era. It is advised that users be wary of false information intended to cause needless disruption and instead rely on official sources for correct information.
