Hi Lee,

 

If you'd like to have the hourly rate lowered for the contract you're referring to, you'd need to ask the freelancer to lower it on their end. Only freelancers can lower their rates on ongoing contracts and only clients can raise them. Alternatively, you may end the contract and rehire the freelancer at a lower rate. This help article contains more information about this.

 

Regarding the partial payment, given that you're on an hourly contract, you can pay your freelancer with a bonus. Feel free to check this help article to learn more.
