Latest Fiverr Layoff Update

September 2025

• Fiverr International (Fiverr) is eliminating approximately 30% of its workforce as it looks to become an “AI-first company.”

In Canada, non-unionized employees at the online marketplace are entitled to significant compensation (up to 24 months’ pay) when fired or let go. This includes salary, bonuses, commissions, and benefits.

A wrongful dismissal occurs if Fiverr terminates you without cause — or incorrectly “for cause” — and doesn’t provide the correct amount of severance pay.

Laid off at Fiverr? 5 Key Steps

1. Don’t sign anything on the spot: Carefully review all documents, including your severance offer. Deadlines from employers aren’t legally binding.
2. Keep relevant documentation: Save any termination letters, severance offers, and employer communications.
3. Use the Severance Pay Calculator: This tool will help you determine whether you’re being offered the correct amount of compensation.
4. Contact an employment lawyer: The experienced team at Samfiru Tumarkin LLP will ensure you receive the severance pay you’re legally entitled to — not a dollar less.
5. Start searching for comparable employment: This helps mitigate income loss and shows good faith in your claim.
