Translation providers
Choose one of the translation providers: Lokalise, Gengo, Google, or DeepL.
Please note that if you are planning to create a very large order ($5000+) then it's really recommended to have a populated translation memory to ensure translation consistency and quality. However, translation memory is not available on Free and Start plans by default.
Lokalise
The Lokalise translation team are experts in mobile app, software, e-learning, website, multimedia and game localization. Translations in over 90 languages are available. We combine advanced technology with a network of verified in-country expert translators and localization engineers.
This is the recommended choice if you want the translators to dig deeper (e.g. download your app/visit a website, read through it etc.). Translators will also use Lokalise UI to perform the translations. They can be reached in Lokalise Project Chat (@Lokalise Translation Team). Moreover, we offer a lifetime translation guarantee. It means that you may contact our support team any time and request corrections for poorly done work. We will investigate internally and, if the problems will be detected, our translators will perform corrections for you free of charge!
Note: The minimum order price is $10, so the amount of words is not considered in this case. It applies to each language separately in a translation order.
Order completion ETA is stated in business days.
Gengo
At Gengo, the mission is to provide language services to everyone and connect a global community. The network is made up of over 18,000 translators who are tested and qualified to meet stringent project standards. Translators are based around the world and in every timezone, which enables us to support over 35 languages and work towards the Gengo mission. Visit website
This is an affordable provider suitable for generic translations, like emails, blogs, articles etc. Note, however, that for Gengo a strict 120-hour "reject or approve" period applies. It means that after the order is delivered, all corrections have to be requested within 120 hours.
Please note that Gengo translators work outside Lokalise. It means that they don't have access to translation memory, glossary, project chat etc. In fact, Gengo translators can see only the following information:
Project briefing
Translation key description
Link to a screenshot (if there is a screenshot attached to the key)
Therefore, please try to provide as many relevant details in your briefing as possible.

Available translation quality by provider
Professionals and native speakers
A professional translator is a native speaker who works as a translator professionally.
Native speakers are not considered as professionals. They are usually hired to translate generic content like e-mails, however they still have passed a translator's certification.
Lokalise
Translation only by a native professional linguist — the chosen keys will be translated by a professional. The result will not be reviewed by another specialist.
Translation + Bilingual revision by a second native professional linguist — the chosen keys will be translated by a professional. The result will be reviewed by another specialist using the source language text.
Bilingual editing — your existing translations will be reviewed and corrected using the source text.
Monolingual proofreading — your existing translations will be reviewed by our linguists but without using the source text. In other words, only the target language will be reviewed.
Please note that we do not support monolingual proofreading and bilingual editing of machine translations and such orders will be cancelled. Reviewing and editing machine translations is considered as a post-editing service and currently we do not offer it.
Gengo
Native speaker — translation will be done by a native speaker.
Professional translator — translation will be done by a professional who might not be a native speaker.
Google Translate
Machine translation — this is the only option for neural network translation.
DeepL
Machine translation — this is the only option for neural network translation.
