When you’re checked in, customers near your location can request your services. Click here for a quick video on what it looks like to sign up and get a job from beginning to end.

The starting price is $25 a month for a sole service provider. You pay a subscription only – no commissions or paying for leads. 

Download the app, sign up and check in. It’s easy to get started, so don’t be afraid to play.

You handle payment as normal with your customer. If you accept credits or vouchers, Fix it Faster pays these directly to you.

Every Fixer on the platform must pass vetting, according to their trade or service, in order to receive a ‘Verified’ badge. This lets customers know you’re the real deal.

At a minimum, we require photo ID and liability insurance. Some services require further proof of qualification if a license is required to practice.

You always have the option to reject a job (rejected jobs are redirected another Fixer). Just let your customer know your reason.

You get paid by your customer as normal – any credits or vouchers they wish to use, we pay directly to you.

This is to ensure you can be visible to customers when you wish to be found, without having to keep the app open.
