You’ve taken the time to write your gig, added a price, uploaded images, clicked publish...
Then you get a message from Gig.tn:
“Your gig has been rejected.”
Or worse — you wake up and your service has disappeared without warning.
If that happens, don’t panic. This article explains:
Why gigs get rejected or removed

⚖️ All Gigs Go Through Manual Review
Every new gig created on Gig.tn is manually reviewed by our moderation team before it’s published.
This helps us make sure:
Your gig is clear, legal, and useful
You’re offering something valuable
The gig respects our platform rules and payment provider requirements
You’re not accidentally (or intentionally) violating terms
Reviews usually happen within 24 hours — sometimes faster, depending on volume.
❌ Common Reasons Your Gig Might Be Rejected
Here are the top reasons freelancers see their gigs declined:
1. You’re Offering a Forbidden Service
🔗 See the full list of forbidden categories in our
Some types of services are not allowed on Gig.tn — either for legal reasons, ethical concerns, or to comply with our payment partners.
2. The Gig Description Is Vague or Misleading
We reject gigs that are:
Too short or copy-pasted from other sites
Filled with buzzwords but no real offer
Unclear about what the buyer is actually getting
Promising something outside the scope of your skills
Containing false claims (e.g., “guaranteed 1st on Google in 24h”)
💡 Tip: Describe exactly what you offer, how it works, and what the buyer receives — no more, no less.
3. The Images Are Stolen, Generic, or Poor Quality
Freelancers often upload:
Logos that don’t belong to them
Unedited mockups from Google
Stock images with watermarks
Blurry or off-topic thumbnails
We take presentation seriously — if your visuals look stolen or low-quality, your gig may be rejected.
💡 Use your own work, show clear examples, and keep things professional. Original always wins.
4. Pricing or Formatting Violations
Your pricing must:
Be in DNT only (no symbols or words like “TND” or “$”)
Include only numerical values (no spaces or extra text)
Be realistic for what you're offering (no “1 DNT full website” scams)
Respect buyer trust — no bait & switch
💡 Keep it clean: 150, 300, 850 — no symbols, just value.
5. You’re Not Verified, and the System Flags It
Unverified freelancers can only publish 1 gig. If you try to publish more without completing your KYC, the system may:
Reject new gigs
Unpublish older ones
Flag your account for review
📌 Solution: Get verified and unlock up to 10 gigs instantly.
🧠 What Happens If Your Gig Gets Removed After Approval?
Sometimes, even approved gigs can be taken down later if:
You edited them to include a forbidden or suspicious offer
A buyer reported it as misleading
You added payment details or tried to direct buyers outside Gig.tn
The gig was linked to poor service, spam, or repeated disputes
In that case, you’ll receive a removal notification or see the gig marked as “deactivated” in your dashboard.
🔁 Can You Resubmit After Rejection?
Yes — and you’re encouraged to.
Before resubmitting:
Read the rejection message carefully
Fix what was flagged (title, image, wording, pricing, etc.)
Improve the clarity and presentation of your offer
Double-check you’re not violating any of our core policies
Then, resubmit the gig for review.
If you’re still unsure why it was rejected — contact support and we’ll explain.
✅ Rejection Isn’t Failure — It’s a Filter
Gig.tn is serious about quality — not to frustrate freelancers, but to protect buyers and keep trust high.
A rejected gig is a chance to improve:
Make it more professional
More focused
More buyer-friendly
We’d rather help you fix it now than let it sit online and ruin your first impression.
