Does Wordhouse subcontract translation jobs? We subcontract to other translators only when more translators are needed. Usually, for bulk projects the native speaker for the language acts as project manager and works with a constant team of three translators.

Who are your clients? Our clients are mostly localization companies and publishing houses which produce translations. But the majority of our clients are local indie and mainstream publishing houses. 

Do you use any TM Tool? TRADOS? WORDFAST? etcetera. We occasionally use WORDFAST but some clients allow us into their system so we know how to use TRADOS as well.

How much is the cost of translation and other services? Online rates stay competitive against other similar-industry rates. Rates are divulged only to inquiring clients and are adjusted depending on the number of bids on a particular job order. For local jobs, rates are more or less flexible. We accept payments by check and bank transfer and also via Paypal.
