Frequently asked questions

Answers about hiring, payments, compliance, and how Truly works as your local partner in Bulgaria.

For Engineers

How does the registration and rate submission process work?

When you register as an engineer on Truly, you'll create your profile and submit your desired rate (hourly or monthly). Our team will review your profile, skills, and experience. The verification process typically takes 24-48 hours. We may request additional documentation or conduct a brief technical interview to ensure quality standards.

How much does it cost to join?

Joining Truly is completely free for engineers. We earn a commission percentage on each transaction when you successfully get hired through our platform. There are no upfront costs or subscription fees.

Can I set my own rates?

Yes! You have complete control over your hourly or monthly rates during registration. You can update your rates at any time from your dashboard. When a company sends a request for your rate, our administrators will review and approve the request. The final rate for the engagement is determined by Truly upon approval and after both parties sign the NDA documents.

How do I receive payments?

All payments are processed securely through the Truly platform on a monthly basis. Companies pay Truly monthly, and Truly pays you according to the agreed terms. Payments are made monthly with invoices issued to companies, and you will receive your payment accordingly. You can withdraw earnings via bank transfer or other supported payment methods. All payments must go through our platform - direct payments outside the platform are not permitted.

What is the NDA process?

Before a request is approved, Truly will send NDA (Non-Disclosure Agreement) documents that both you and the company must sign. This ensures confidentiality and protection for both parties. Once both parties have signed the NDA, the request can be approved and the engagement can begin.

Who do I have a contract with?

All contracts are entered into directly with Truly (operated by Delix Ltd, BULSTAT: BG204861966). You do not have a direct contract with the company - your contract is with Truly, which provides security and ensures all payments are processed correctly.

For Companies

How does the request and approval process work?

When you find an engineer you'd like to work with, you can send a request for their rate. Our platform administrators will review your request. Before approval, we'll send NDA (Non-Disclosure Agreement) documents for both you and the engineer to sign. Once both parties have signed the NDA, we'll approve the request and determine the final rate for the engagement. All engineers on Truly go through a rigorous verification process before being approved.

What are the fees and how does payment work?

Truly charges a commission percentage on each transaction, which is included in the rate structure. There are no hidden costs or upfront fees. You only pay when you successfully hire an engineer through our platform. All payments are processed on a monthly basis through invoices issued by Truly. Each month, we issue an invoice to your company with a maximum payment period of one month. For non-fixed-price contracts, the invoice includes a timesheet with the hours worked. All payments must be made through the Truly platform - you pay Truly, and Truly pays the engineer. Direct payments outside the platform are strictly prohibited. Contact us for detailed pricing information.

How does VAT work?

Truly is operated by Delix Ltd, registered in Bulgaria (BULSTAT: BG204861966). For companies outside of Bulgaria, VAT is not charged on our services in accordance with Bulgarian and EU tax regulations for B2B services. For companies within Bulgaria, standard VAT rates apply as per Bulgarian tax law. All invoices will clearly indicate the VAT status based on your company's location.

Who do I have a contract with?

All contracts are entered into directly with Truly (operated by Delix Ltd, BULSTAT: BG204861966). You do not have a direct contract with the engineer - your contract is with Truly, which provides security, handles all payment processing, and ensures compliance with all terms.

Can I hire engineers for long-term projects?

Yes, our platform supports both short-term and long-term engagements. You can hire engineers for fixed-term contracts, ongoing projects, or even full-time positions. Many companies use Truly to build dedicated remote teams. All engagements are contracted through Truly regardless of duration.

What if I'm not satisfied with an engineer?

We offer support for finding replacement engineers when needed. If you're not satisfied with an engineer's work, contact our support team and we'll help you find a replacement. Our team is responsible for ensuring quality and will work with you to resolve any issues. All contracts are with Truly, so we handle the replacement process.

Can I add talents from my bench to the platform?

Yes! If you have talented people (engineers, designers, PMs) currently available or between projects (on the bench), you can add them to our platform. This helps them find new opportunities while showcasing your company's talent pool. The process is free and straightforward - go to your company dashboard, navigate to the talent/bench section, and click 'Add to bench'. You'll complete a quick onboarding where you provide their profile information, skills, experience, and CV. Once submitted, our team will review and approve the talent profile.

General

How do I get started?

Getting started is easy! Engineers can create a profile, submit their desired rate, and wait for verification. Companies can browse our verified engineer pool and send requests for specific engineers at their rates. Our administrators will review requests, send NDA documents for signature, approve engagements, and determine final rates. Our team will guide you through the entire process and help you find the perfect match.

What is Truly's role in the process?

Truly (operated by Delix Ltd, BULSTAT: BG204861966) acts as the contracting party for all engagements. We facilitate connections between companies and engineers, review and approve all requests, handle NDA document signing, determine final rates, process all payments, and provide ongoing support. All contracts are with Truly, ensuring security and proper payment processing for both parties.

Is my data secure?

Yes, we take data security very seriously. All data is encrypted in transit and at rest. We comply with GDPR and other international data protection regulations. Your personal information is never shared without your explicit consent.
