Your Talent. Your Terms. Your Money. On Time.
We're Fixing What's Broken
The creative industry runs on passion, skill, and trust. But for too long, that trust has been one-sided.
We've heard the stories. The colorist who waited six months for payment on a major campaign. The cinematographer who lost a mortgage deposit because an invoice never cleared. The motion designer who stopped taking local clients altogether.
Late payment isn't just inconvenient—it's crushing creative careers across the Middle East.
Meanwhile, production companies and agencies struggle to find reliable, vetted talent. Hiring happens through WhatsApp groups and word-of-mouth. There's no transparency, no accountability, and no system.
So We Built One.
Gigfoundry MENA is the region's first fintech-powered marketplace designed specifically for creative professionals. We combine:
Guaranteed escrow payments so freelancers get paid on time, every time
AI-powered matching so companies find the right talent, fast
Verified credibility badges so trust is earned and visible
Industry-standard booking workflows so pencils, holds, and confirmations work the way they should
We started in the Middle East because the problem is most acute here—but our vision is global. Every creative professional, everywhere, deserves to get paid fairly and on time.
Our Mission
To build the trusted standard for creative hiring and payments—empowering talent, enabling great work, and creating a fairer creative economy.
