Sending your contract to the expertOnce you've created and finalized your contract, send it to the expert for signature by simply copying and pasting the signing link into the Arbolus Platform. If you know the expert's email address, you can also send it to them directly from Plainly with one click. |
Paying the expertOnce the expert has signed, you're ready to start working with them. When it comes to payment, you can choose to use Arbolus' payment service. Experts get paid instantly creating and all billing enquiries are handled by the Arbolus support team. Alternatively, you're free to handle payment directly, outside of Arbolus. |

Using your own standard contractsIf you've got your own process for engaging consultants - for example, your own documentation and certain internal pre-approvals or notifications that you need to happen before engaging a consultant - we can build a bespoke workflow for you/your legal team. Your standard contracts will be uploaded to Plainly and created via a checklist created specifically for you. Just get in touch and tell us what you need. |
Both Plainly and Arbolus are on hand to help you throughout this process. Any questions, please contact help@arbolus.com or your usual Arbolus contact. You can contact Plainly via this form.
* Templates and checklists are supplied for your convenience only. You use them at your own risk and subject always to the Arbolus Platform Agreement and Plainly's Disclaimers.
