# How do Recurring Payments work for Independent Contractors?
Our platform aims to facilitate long-term projects and ongoing collaborations with independent contractors by streamlining the payment process. We understand the importance of consistency and financial security for both clients and independent contractors (ICs).
For long-term contracts, manually submitting milestones and waiting for the client to approve them can become repetitive and time-consuming. To save time and ensure consistency in payments, you can use a feature called **Recurring Payments**. This feature provides ICs with more financial security and predictability.
This option is available for fixed-price contracts. Your client can set an amount, frequency (weekly, bi-weekly, or monthly), and start date for automatic recurring payments.
**Recurring Payments** will ensure you receive the same amount based on the frequency set, as agreed with your client.
On the *My Jobs - Active Contracts page: Fixed contracts*, you'll find the "Recurring Payments" tab that allows you to check your recurring payments:
With **Recurring Payments**, our platform is committed to streamlining payment processes for long-term projects and collaborations. By automating payments and ensuring consistency, we aim to provide both clients and ICs with a more efficient and reliable experience.
