FAQ

Worker questions

  • Can I join on WhatsApp?

    Yes. Join on WhatsApp: thin signup, Continue setup, then My vetting for your next stage. Apply or Decline from job alerts. Bank, skills, GPS clock-in and payouts stay in JobZapp.

  • What is JobBot for workers?

    JobBot answers common questions in the app and on WhatsApp free text: payouts, Apply, En Route, availability, skills and what’s next on vetting. It sends you to the right screen. It does not replace job Chat with your client. Chat to a person reaches Care when JobBot cannot finish.

  • How do I get help or speak to a person?

    Ask JobBot in the app or on WhatsApp Help first. Open Worker Help for longer how-tos. Use Chat to a person when you need Care in the same thread. Job Chat on a live booking is only for talking to your client, not Care.

  • What does it cost to join?

    Nothing. Creating a worker profile on JobZapp is free. You only need your ID or passport, your skills, and a smartphone.

  • Do I have to accept every job?

    No. You see nearby shifts as clients post them and choose the ones that fit your schedule. You can Apply or Decline from the app or from the WhatsApp invite.

  • How do I get paid?

    Clients pay in the app after the job is marked complete. Your earnings land in your wallet and pay out on the schedule you choose: Weekly, Bi-Monthly, or Monthly. Paid Extra Time lands in your wallet separately from the main job pay. Never take cash on site.

  • How do I get more bookings?

    Complete Your vetting steps (Docs Review, Interview, Briefing, Briefing quiz, References, and Vetting Ready), arrive on time, and finish jobs well. Only Vetted or Certified workers get regular invites, and matching uses skills that are approved, together with how close you are and how reliably you have completed jobs. Good ratings put you in front of more clients nearby. Late cancels and no-shows can trigger Yellow, Purple, or Red cards that pause job requests.
