FAQ

Good to know before you book

  • Can I book on WhatsApp?

    Yes. You can set up your job, browse local workers and receive applications directly in WhatsApp. Once you select a worker, simply use the secure JobZapp link in your chat to authorize the card hold and finalize your booking.

  • How far ahead should I book?

    Lead time is at least 6 hours by day, or 12 hours at night. You must Book a pending job at least 3 hours before start, or it auto-cancels with no charge.

  • Can I cancel for free?

    Yes. You can cancel free up to 4 hours before the job starts. Inside that window a late fee may apply for worker travel and preparation.

  • Do I pay cash on the day?

    No cash needed. All payments are handled securely through the app.

    You will see a clear upfront estimate covering the worker's rate, booking fee, and travel. We only place a temporary hold on your card when you book, and you are charged after the job is completed.

  • Are workers vetted?

    Yes. Every worker must complete a vetting process, including document verification, an interview, and reference checks before receiving regular job invites. Each skill is individually reviewed, so workers are only matched with jobs they are fully approved for.
