  2. The service is Subscription based and starting for Free. Please refer to the Pricing section of this website for more information about the different options.
  3. There is no charge to the Customer when posting a WIP. However when you accept a quote and enter into a contract with a Supplier for that job you will be solely liable to that Supplier for the work performed. Wipperoz accepts no liability for invoices or costs of those Suppliers which successfully bid for your job.
  4. Prior to accepting a quote the Customer should make their own reasonable enquiries and searches to ascertain the credibility and suitability of that Supplier to perform the work.
