How It Work

1. Step 1: Create Your Design Brief

We will ask you a few simple questions that will form your design brief. A design brief is just a summary of what you need designed. It costs around $39 USD to post your brief on 99designs.com.

2. Step 2: Set Your Budget

We will ask you how much you’re willing to pay the winning designer to purchase their design. This is called the prize. Prize amounts generally range from $100 to $600 depending on the type of design you require.

3. Step 3: Work with the Designers

Once your design brief has been posted to 99designs.com, designers from around the globe will submit design concepts to compete for your prize. It’s your job to rate the designs and provide feedback to help the designers deliver what you want.
