Our Services
Scope of Services
CodeX Lancers provides custom software development services including mobile app development (Flutter, React Native), web development (Next.js, React, Angular, Laravel, WordPress), backend development (Node.js, Firebase, Supabase), and AI/ML solutions.
Project Engagements
Each engagement begins with a detailed proposal outlining scope, deliverables, timelines, and pricing. Work commences only upon written approval of the proposal and receipt of any applicable advance payment.
Service Modifications
We reserve the right to modify, suspend, or discontinue any service offering at any time with reasonable notice. Ongoing projects will be completed as per the agreed scope unless both parties mutually agree to changes.
Client Responsibilities
Accurate Information
You agree to provide accurate, complete, and current information when engaging our services. This includes project requirements, assets, credentials, and feedback needed for us to deliver the agreed work.
Timely Feedback
Project timelines are dependent on timely client feedback and approvals. Delays caused by late responses, missing assets, or scope changes requested by the client may impact delivery schedules and may incur additional charges.
Lawful Use
You agree to use our services only for lawful purposes. You must not request us to develop software that infringes third-party rights, violates applicable laws, or is intended for illegal, harmful, or deceptive activities.
Intellectual Property
Client Ownership
Upon receipt of full payment for a project, all custom code, designs, and deliverables produced exclusively for your project are transferred to you. You will have full ownership rights to the final product.
CodeX Lancers IP
We retain ownership of all pre-existing tools, libraries, frameworks, methodologies, and internal utilities used in delivering your project. This includes any reusable components, boilerplate code, or proprietary packages.
Third-Party Components
Some projects may incorporate third-party open-source libraries or licensed components. You are responsible for complying with the respective licences of any third-party components included in your deliverables.
Portfolio Rights
Unless explicitly restricted in writing, CodeX Lancers reserves the right to showcase completed projects in our portfolio, case studies, and marketing materials, respecting any NDA clauses where applicable.
Payment Terms
Payment Schedule
Unless otherwise agreed, projects require a 30–50% advance payment before work commences. The remaining balance is due upon project completion and final delivery, prior to the transfer of source code or deployment.
Accepted Payment Methods
We accept payments via bank transfer, PayPal, Wise, and other methods agreed upon at project start. All amounts are stated in USD unless a different currency is agreed upon in writing.
Late Payments
Invoices are due within 7 days of issue unless otherwise specified. Late payments may result in project suspension, delivery delays, or additional charges. Overdue accounts may be referred to a collections process.

Confidentiality & NDA
Mutual Confidentiality
Both parties agree to keep confidential any proprietary information shared during the engagement, including business plans, technical specifications, pricing, and client data, both during and after project completion.
