Your Fundwork profile is your professional identity on the platform. It’s how clients evaluate you before hiring you for a contract, and how your track record builds visibly over time. Your .base.eth name anchors everything — every piece of work you complete and every payment you receive is linked to that identity on-chain.

​
Setting Up a Strong Profile

1

Connect with your .base.eth name

Sign in with Privy and your Base Account. Your .base.eth name becomes your Fundwork identity — it’s how clients see you on listings, applications, and submissions. If you don’t have a .base.eth name yet, register one through the Base ecosystem before you start.
2

Write a clear bio

Your bio is the first thing a client reads when they visit your profile. Describe what you do, the kinds of projects you take on, and the value you bring. Keep it focused and specific — a bio that says “I design clean, accessible interfaces for Web3 products” is more useful to a client than a generic description.
3

Add your skills

List the skills relevant to the work you want to find on Fundwork. Use the same language clients use in their listings — for example, “Solidity,” “brand identity,” “technical writing,” or “video editing.” Precise skill tags help clients find you and give context to your applications.
4

Link your portfolio

Add links to your best work. These can be external portfolio sites, case studies, GitHub repositories, Figma files, published writing, or any other evidence of your capabilities. Portfolio links appear on your profile and carry weight when clients are comparing applicants.
5

Keep your profile up to date

Update your bio, skills, and portfolio links as your work evolves. A profile that reflects your current capabilities is more useful than one that represents who you were six months ago.
A complete profile with specific skills and strong portfolio links significantly increases your chances of being selected for a contract. When a client chooses between two applicants with similar experience, a well-maintained profile is often the deciding factor.

​
How Reputation Builds Over Time

Completed work history

Every contract milestone you complete and every bounty you win appears on your Fundwork profile as completed work. This history grows with each engagement and becomes a visible record of your reliability and output.

On-chain payment receipts

Every USDC payment you receive has an on-chain transaction hash. These receipts are publicly verifiable — clients can confirm that you’ve completed paid work, not just claimed to. It’s tamper-proof proof of your track record.

Your .base.eth identity

Your .base.eth name ties your Fundwork history to a persistent, on-chain identity. Unlike a username that can be changed or abandoned, your .base.eth name creates continuity across every engagement.

Visibility to clients

Clients browse talent and review profiles when choosing who to hire or whose bounty submission stands out. A profile with demonstrated completed work is more compelling than one with none.

​
What Clients See on Your Profile

Your name and bio are front and center. They’re the first impression a client has of you when they open your profile from an application or submission.
Skills are displayed as tags. Clients scanning for a specific capability — say, “motion graphics” or “Rust development” — will notice immediately whether your skills match their needs.
Past contracts and bounty wins appear here. Each entry represents a real engagement — scope you delivered on and payment you earned. This section grows as you do more work on the platform.
Payment transaction hashes are public on Base. Any client can verify your payment history independently, without relying on Fundwork as an intermediary. This transparency is a core part of how reputation works on the platform.
Fundwork is in alpha. Profile features may expand over time. Building a strong profile now means you’ll have an established track record as the platform grows and more clients come on board.
