Fiverr was founded by Micha Kaufman and Shai Wininger, and was launched in February 2010. The founders came up with the concept of a marketplace that would provide a two sided platform for people to buy and sell a variety of digital services typically offered by freelance contractors. Services offered on the site include writing, translation, graphic design, video editing and programming. Fiverr's services start at US$5, and can go up to thousands of dollars with gig extras. Each service offered is called a "gig".
The website was launched in early 2010 and by 2012 was hosting over 1.3 million Gigs. The website transaction volume has grown 600% since 2011.
On June 1, 2010, Fiverr received a seed investment of US$1
million from Guy Gamzu and other angel investors, and in May 2012, Fiverr
secured US$15 million in funding from Accel Partners and Bessemer Venture
Partners, bringing the company's total funding to US$20 million.
In December 2013, Fiverr released their iOS app in the Apple App
Store, and in March 2014, Fiverr released their Android app in the Google Play
store.
During August 2014, Fiverr announced that it had raised US$30 million in a Series C round of funding from Bessemer Venture Partners, Accel (formerly known as Accel Partners) and other investors. The round brings their total funding to date to US$50 million.
