How to contact a freelancer before choosing their quote?

Updated on 16 August 2026

From your mission detail page, every quote received offers a **Contact** button: it opens a conversation with the freelancer in question even before you have accepted or declined their application, so you can ask questions before deciding.

1

Find the quote that interests you

In the list of quotes received on your mission, each application shows three possible actions: Accept, Decline and Contact.

2

Open the conversation

Click Contact: a conversation starts with the freelancer in your messaging, without committing either of you — you can then accept or decline the quote at any time, before or after this exchange.

Frequently asked questions

Does contacting a freelancer commit me to accepting their quote?

No. The Contact button simply opens a conversation to clarify points before your decision; you remain free to accept, decline, or contact other candidates in parallel.

Can the freelancer also contact me before I decide?

Yes, in some cases: a freelancer who has already sent a quote on your mission may contact you back, depending on their token pack.
