Prices for translations

My translation rate is 0.05€ (eur) per word (plus a Steam key of the game, which is usually provided). On average, professional translators charge between €0.08 and €0.12 per word.
Why do I offer a lower rate?
My goal is to keep localization accessible to everyone. I mainly enjoy working with independent studios, which often do not have the same financial resources as large studios with multiple successful titles.

​
By offering affordable pricing, I aim to help smaller developers expand their reach, bring their games to new audiences, and support their growth.
At the same time, this collaboration allows both the studio and myself to gain visibility in different countries and communities, creating a win-win partnership.
​
Your first game?​
For a studio's or developer's very first games, I offer €0.04 per word. It's better to pay less to gain exposure, especially when all the development costs have already been incurred.
