Why designers love it here
I was told about design match by a friend. She said working with them was one of the most enjoyable experiences in terms of finding and working with clients so I though I'd sign up. She wasn't wrong. The design match team is AMAZING, they're so clear, communicative, and supportive. I'm getting paid an amazing rate, working in web3, with a client who's incredible. Couldn't ask for more.

Brand DesignerDesign Match is an awesome network. They really advocate for their designers. I was matched with a long term project within my first week in the network. The support is just insane. My matcher really took the time to get to know me, what I like and found me a project that not only fit my interest but challenged me. If you're thinking about joining Design Match - go for it.

UX/UI DesignerOne of the best things that happened to me lately was connecting to Design Match. The opportunities for interesting freelance work are unbelievable. No more searching for clients. And they are careful to match you with projects you would like. Everybody there is friendly and helpful, and my matcher is especially open and warm. I was surprised by how much time they invested to answer all my questions.
They guided me through the process of onboarding and invoicing, and provided information and transparency. Not to mention that they considerably raised my hourly rate. And the invoices are paid quicker than I can check my bank statement.
This is the best experience in my freelance career. I strongly recommend Design Match.

Product DesignerDesigners, but with a particular set of skills.
(1) Industry insiders
who hit the ground sprinting because they don’t need shown the ropes.
(2) Manufacturing masters
who know that pie-in-the-sky designs that can’t be manufactured = a startup’s kiss of death.
(Don’t wanna waste $90k and 8 months of time? Build designs around the tools that make them.)
(1) Fanatics of form & function
Who despise ugly products that work but won’t sell, and pretty products that sell but won’t work in equal measure.
Is this you?
A leader, not a follower.
Our startups don't just want a website, but a designer to run point on all their design needs.
Awesome on Zoom calls.
Design skills are fab, but design skills + silky smooth people skills is even better.
Startup savvy
Startups change fast, and need nimble-footed designers to stay on their tail. Corporate dinos need not apply.

Sleep easy, designer. We got your back.
As designers ourselves, we hate nightmare clients as much as you do.
And although we get most of ‘em to hit the bricks, occasionally a bad apple slips the net.
So, if you’re ever having sleepless nights with a client?
Fire us an email.
We’ll swoop in and sort it out pronto.
