If a freelancer is represented by an agency, the agency's representatives can accept bookings and claim payments on the freelancer’s behalf using the .
This process is managed through an Agent record. Each agency will have an Agent record to which freelancers are linked in our system. Each Agent record will have a main agent representative, and we can also set up substitute agent representatives. Due to system constraints, a freelancer can only be linked to one Agent record at a time.
Freelancers linked to an agent will not have access to the FPP. Only the agency's representatives can access the portal, and this link will apply to all 麻豆社 bookings.
The FPP supports agencies that:
- Wish to have multiple agent representatives (including substitutes) log in with their own credentials to access the same freelancers.
- Wish to have agent representatives log in with their own credentials to access different freelancers, such as only those they represent.
Agent Terminology
- Agency: The overall agency company.
- Main Agent Rep: The individual at the agency who directly represents freelancers. This person will be our main contact and will receive contracts, remittances, and general communications. Their name will appear at the end of the agency name in SmartBook to ensure our bookers select the correct agent code, especially for agencies with agent reps accessing different freelancers.
- Substitute Agent Rep: An individual at the agency who assists the main agent rep in representing freelancers. They can see the same freelancers as the main agent rep but will not receive contract or remittance information.
