Source verified academic talent - faster, safer, smarter.

We understand the importance of trust, credibility, and compliance in academic outsourcing. That’s why every contractor on our platform undergoes a rigorous verification process:

• Qualification Checks: Verified through MIE and SAQA to ensure academic credibility.
• CV & Identity Verification: Contractors upload a complete CV and valid ID.
• Banking Verification: Bank details are confirmed to ensure correct and secure payments.
• Formal Contracts: All engagements are formally contracted and stored.
• Secure Document Management: We securely store all key documents—CVs, qualifications, ID, contracts, bank details, and academic reports—giving you access whenever needed.

You no longer need to track multiple invoices or process individual payments.

With Lumenlink, your institution makes one bulk payment covering all academic contractors. We handle the disbursements based on verified deliverables, and you receive:

• Clear breakdowns by contractor and service
   
• Payment tracking and reconciliation

Every contractor on Lumenlink is rated by the institutions they work with. This drives quality and transparency, helping you choose the right people with confidence.

Each contractor is evaluated on:

• Overall quality of work delivered

• Communication and responsiveness
   
• Accuracy of work

These ratings are visible on the contractor’s profile—giving you a clear view of their performance across past engagements.
