From our market research, we know that Afford is an affordable translation agency.
Our goal in founding Afford was to create a reliable, competent, technically proficient and, as our name implies, affordable, inexpensive translation company. Our prices and services are regularly compared to our competitors’ to achieve that original goal. Our prices are always lower than those of the vast majority of our competitors, regularly falling into the bottom third. When our in-house technical preparedness, translation capacity, extensive knowledge and use of translation software (CAT tools), and extensive applied knowledge and capabilities in layout check and DTP are taken into account, Afford clearly provides one of the best values for money among translation agencies.
In terms of pricing, our translation services can be divided into four categories:
Placing an order knowing the exact fee
Our accounting is based on the number of words to be translated from the source language. It is transparent, and a good measure of the work to be performed.
We offer accurate advance pricing in light of the specific task. The price depends on many factors, including the source language, the target language, the deadline, requirement of editing or expert review, the potential goal of the text, DTP requests, and certification demands. For submitted texts that receive a quotation, our commitment to confidentiality applies.
The service fee may be reduced if assisting software (CAT tools) may be used during translation; for example, in case parts of the text or the whole text consists of repetitive parts, or we have already translated something similar. Aside from repetitions providing a reduced price, quality is also improved by ensuring coherence and consistency.
The price may be further reduced if we also create a list of expressions (terminology database) of regularly used terms for the client. These may include technical terms or even names of job positions. And actually anything that occurs regularly for which a common phrase is used.
Similar to our translation fees, we offer accurate advance pricing for projects involving interpreting tasks in light of the specific task.

For many years now, whenever we hit a capacity bottleneck, espell has turned to Afford's services. As a budget translation company specifically geared to meet MLV needs, they are reliable and easy to work with (a combination rarely found among the multitude of SLV's). What makes them a favourite of our project managers is that they know Afford's staff understand exactly what we want and what we want to avoid. To this day, after jointly implementing over a hundred projects, they have never failed us.
Abacus Medicine is an ever-growing company with a social goal of providing life-saving medicines to people at a lower price. We only work with qualified, reliable suppliers and strive for long-term partnerships to keep our purpose. We have been cooperating with Afford for 5 years now, we regularly order translations.
As our commercial, networking and knowledge transfer activities become more intense across Europe, we are already translating our leaflets into German and English from 16 different languages (such as Portuguese, Dutch and Lithuanian) with the Afford team.
Our goal is to work with a translation agency that can consistently provide good quality, paying attention to the correct use of pharmaceutical terminology that is very important to us. They have never disappointed us before!

As a company listed on the stock exchange, NordTelekom’s written materials are expected to radiate sophistication, whether they are financial statements, contracts, or even simply marketing texts. Afford has been the reliable partner we can count on in any situation. This is particularly important now, as our constant expansion in England requires English, Polish and Hungarian language services. I highly recommend them.
