Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know I will be paid for my gig? arrow-right
Our leading payment provider will independently hold the money, for security and peace of mind for the gig worker, as well as a robust disputes policy and reducing fraud on the platform. Once you have completed the work, the gig lister will be notified and they will release payment once they are satisfied with the work completed, as outlined and agreed in the gig listing. For more information about pay in general, go to our Help Centre pay section
Are gig workers verified? Can I trust them? arrow-right
All gig workers must be identity verified by Stripe when registering as a gig worker. This adds an additional level of trust to our platform. Because we offer a reputation service, you can also see all historical work conducted by the worker. This quickly builds trust within the marketplace, but also removes fraudsters and scammers. Any behaviour that breaches our platform standards results in those worker being removed from our platform.

Workers are selected based on services, availability, reputation & price. The money is withheld independently through our leading global Payment provider Stripe escrow account. Payment is only released upon satisfactory completion. Feedback is given by both parties to build marketplace reputation. A job is an advertisement listing the general requirements and services expected of a worker. Job advertisements are for permanent or contract based work (hourly rate).On the gig exchange, the job advertisements are FREE and listed under the Jobs section.
Can I report offensive or harassing behaviour? arrow-right
Yes, we take very seriously any behaviour that is threatening, violent, aggressive or harassing. We recommend all communication is through our chat portal, so we have an audit of this. Please contact us through our contact page.
Can anyone sign up to become a gig worker? arrow-right
