By using Rei, you agree to the following terms. We've kept them as straightforward as possible - no legalese traps, no buried clauses.
Effective date: March 2026
By accessing and using Rei (the "Service"), you accept and agree to be bound by these Terms of Use. If you don't agree with any part of these terms, please don't use the Service. Using Rei after any update to these terms constitutes acceptance of the revised version.
Rei is a free, browser-based rate calculator and resource hub built for Philippine-based virtual assistants. The calculator generates hourly rate estimates based on inputs you provide - your expenses, income goals, niche, experience level, and platform. All calculations run locally in your browser. We don't process, store, or transmit any of the data you enter. (See our Privacy Policy for full details.)
The site also includes written guides, benchmark data, and templates designed to help VAs price their services with confidence.
Rei is not financial, legal, or tax advice. The rate estimates, benchmarks, and recommendations we provide are based on publicly available market data, platform research, and community insights. They are designed to be a useful starting point - not a guarantee of income, a substitute for professional financial guidance, or a promise that any specific client will pay a given rate.
Your financial situation is yours. If you're making decisions about taxes, business registration, contracts, or significant income changes, consult a qualified professional. Rei can help you think clearly about pricing. It cannot replace an accountant, a lawyer, or your own judgment.
We work to keep our rate benchmarks, niche profiles, blog content, and platform fee data accurate and current. We update our data regularly using platform documentation, freelancer surveys, and community research.
That said, the VA market moves. Rates shift, platforms change fee structures, and exchange rates fluctuate. We make no guarantee that any specific data point on Rei is accurate, complete, or current at the exact moment you read it. Always cross-reference with your own research, especially before making significant pricing decisions.
When you use Rei, you agree to the following:
All content on Rei - including text, guides, templates, calculator code, design, graphics, and data compilations - is the property of Rei Philippines and is protected by applicable intellectual property laws. You may not reproduce, distribute, modify, or create derivative works from this content without prior written permission.
If you'd like to reference, quote, or feature Rei content in your own work (blog posts, courses, presentations), reach out through the Contact page. We're generally happy to collaborate - we just want to know about it first.
Rei is provided "as is" and "as available" without warranty of any kind, whether express or implied. We don't warrant that the Service will be uninterrupted, error-free, or that any specific result will follow from using it.
In no event shall Rei Philippines, its creator, or its contributors be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages arising from your use of - or inability to use - the Service. This includes, without limitation, damages related to lost income, pricing decisions, client negotiations, or reliance on any information provided through Rei.
You use the Service at your own discretion. The rate recommendations are tools for your decision-making, not decisions made on your behalf.
Rei may link to external websites, platforms, or tools (such as OnlineJobs.ph, Upwork, or certification providers). These links are provided for your convenience and reference. We don't control, endorse, or take responsibility for the content, policies, or practices of any third-party site. Visiting external links is at your own discretion.
We reserve the right to update these terms at any time. When we do, we'll post the revised version on this page with an updated effective date. If a change is material - for example, if we introduce paid features, change how we handle data, or modify liability terms - we'll make reasonable efforts to notify users through the site or our newsletter before the change takes effect.
Continued use of Rei after any update constitutes acceptance of the revised terms.
