Remember the days when you had to download images and videos you bought on Fiverr and then upload it somewhere else in order to share it with your friends? Well… those days are gone!!
Now, it’s just a click away :)
It’s like this. Your Gig is delivered as usual. After leaving feedback, you’ll be asked if you want to share your image or video.
Your graphic or video will have its own page that you can easily share anywhere you want. Your friends can leave comments right on the page which can lead to some super fun discussions :)
Want to share it more than once? No problem! Go back to the order page and do it again.
So much easier, right!?
Now, when you get something awesome – just share it!
