Day rate calculation method
Target net monthly salary × 12 = target annual revenue.
Add charges (income tax + AMO for self-employed, or ~30–40% under umbrella depending on simulation).
Divide by billable days (~180–200/year excluding leave and prospecting).
WEEPO day rate simulator automates this calculation.
How to set and negotiate your day rate
Compare WEEPO benchmark + skill scarcity + client type (local vs EU).
Negotiate scope rather than systematically lowering the rate.
Recalculate every 3 months or after a status change (self-employed → umbrella).
Frequently asked questions
Does the day rate include social charges?
No, the day rate is a gross daily fee. You must factor in taxes, CNSS, and management fees to calculate net income.
Can you negotiate your day rate down to win a client?
Possible occasionally, but avoid setting a lasting precedent. Prefer adjusting scope rather than the rate.
Does umbrella company change the day rate?
You still negotiate your day rate with the client. Under umbrella, part is converted to net salary after management fees.
Where does this benchmark data come from?
Ranges compiled from public Moroccan sources: Jobsquare.ma (dev day rates local/international), 2026 freelance guide, 2026 IT grid and UX designer. WEEPO aggregates and visualises — these are not internal WEEPO data.
