Short version: Fiverr acquired AND.CO in 2018, then folded it into a new product called Fiverr Workspace in November 2021 — same tool, new name, new owner's roadmap. Fiverr then shut Workspace down entirely in early 2026, with all access terminated on 1 March 2026 and data deleted after that.
So if you're here looking for AND.CO... it's not just renamed. It's gone.
That's the whole thing in two sentences. But the how matters, especially if you're one of the people still trying to work out where your contracts and invoice history went, so here's the full story.
The timeline, quickly
- 2018 — Fiverr acquires AND.CO.
- November 2021 — Fiverr announces Fiverr Workspace. AND.CO is folded in and rebranded.
- Late 2025 — Fiverr announces Workspace is shutting down.
- 31 January 2026 — last billing. Monthly subs cancelled. Annual subs running past that date automatically refunded for the unused months.
- February 2026 — platform stays up, but for data export only.
- 1 March 2026 — all access terminated. Data permanently deleted after this. No recovery.
When did AND.CO become Fiverr Workspace?
November 2021. Fiverr had already bought AND.CO back in 2018 and ran it under its own name for a few years, then announced Fiverr Workspace and folded AND.CO into it. Same underlying product, new branding, new home inside the Fiverr ecosystem.
And look — AND.CO was genuinely good. That's not nostalgia talking. It was one of the very few admin tools built for freelancers that actually felt like it was made by people who'd freelanced. Contracts with e-signatures. Proposals. Invoicing. Expense tracking. Time tracking. Clean UX that didn't make you feel like you were operating enterprise accounting software to bill someone for a logo. And a free plan that was actually useful, not a three-day tease.
If you're wondering why so many people still search for it years later... that's why. People liked it.
After the rebrand, the product kept working. Nothing broke overnight. But development slowed, and the centre of gravity shifted — Workspace made the most sense if you were sourcing clients through Fiverr itself. If you weren't, if you'd just been using AND.CO as your standalone freelance back office, you slowly became a smaller and smaller part of the story.
That's the bit people miss. The product didn't get worse in one dramatic moment. It just stopped being the point.
Is Fiverr Workspace discontinued?
Yes. Fully. Fiverr announced the shutdown in late 2025 and executed it over the first two months of 2026.
Here's how it actually played out. Last billing was 31 January 2026 — monthly subscriptions were cancelled at that point, and if you were on an annual plan that ran past that date, Fiverr automatically refunded the unused months. Credit where it's due, that's the right way to handle it.
Through February 2026 the platform stayed accessible, but in export-only mode. You could get your data out. You couldn't really keep working in it.
Then 1 March 2026, all access terminated. And this is the part I want to be very clear about, because it's the question that brings most people here: data was permanently deleted after that date. There's no recovery. No "contact support and they'll dig it out". If you didn't export before March, your contracts, invoices and client history are gone.
If you're reading this after the fact and you didn't export — I'm sorry, genuinely. Rebuilding years of invoice history from bank statements is a horrible weekend.
Where did AND.CO users go next?
Fiverr didn't just close the door and walk off. It partnered with HoneyBook on migration, and the deal on the table was one year free on an annual HoneyBook Essentials or Premium plan. For a lot of people that was the path of least resistance, and if you take a lot of client bookings and run a fairly standard service business, HoneyBook is a reasonable landing spot.
But "the free migration offer" and "the right tool for you" aren't automatically the same thing, and a chunk of the AND.CO crowd went looking properly instead.
The obvious other name is Bonsai, which has been the default AND.CO alternative in most freelancer conversations for years — proposals, contracts, invoicing, the same all-in-one shape. It's solid. It's also priced and structured for solo freelancers first, which is exactly where people start hitting walls once they've got subcontractors, retainers or a small team. We went deep on that in our Bonsai alternatives guide for agencies if you're at that point.
Beyond those two it fragments fast. Some people split the stack — a dedicated contracts tool, a dedicated invoicing tool, a spreadsheet holding it together. Some went to full accounting platforms and accepted the loss of the freelance-shaped bits. Some are still, honestly, muddling through in Google Docs.
There's no clean successor. That's the frustrating answer, but it's the true one.
The thing worth actually taking from this
If the AND.CO shutdown taught freelancers anything, it's that your billing shouldn't live somewhere that can vanish because a bigger company changed strategy. AND.CO didn't fail. It got bought, absorbed, deprioritised, and switched off — and none of that had anything to do with whether it was a good tool or whether you loved using it.
So when you're picking the next one, ask a different question than "does it have the features". Ask: can I get my data out easily, and does my money actually flow through me?
That second one is why we built Handl the way we did. Payments land in your own Stripe account — Handl never holds or routes your money, it just handles the billing on top. And for people whose work is project-based rather than hourly, milestone billing ties invoices to the stages you're already tracking in Monday, Asana, Jira, ClickUp or Linear, so the invoice goes out when the work is actually done instead of when you remember.
That's it, that's the pitch. Here's how it works if you want the detail.
And if you're specifically weighing up what you lost against what's out there now, we keep an honest Handl vs AND.CO comparison here — including the bits AND.CO did better.
