Frequently asked questions
Is BeHire free?
Yes. Posting tasks, listing services and messaging are free. We don't take a commission on jobs. Optional credits let taskers bump or boost their listings.
How do I pay a tasker?
You agree on a price with the tasker and pay them directly, by e-Transfer, cash or however you both prefer. BeHire never handles payment for jobs.
How many taskers can respond to my job?
Up to 8 at first, so you're not overwhelmed. If none of them fit, tap Open to more. Taskers can't message you until you reply to them.
What does the Verified badge mean?
The tasker confirmed their phone number with a code. It doesn't mean we've checked their background, licences or insurance, so ask about those for bigger jobs.
What's a bump?
A bump moves your listing back to the top of search results. Every listing gets one free bump every 7 days; extra bumps cost 1 credit.
What's a boost?
A boost pins your listing above regular results for 7 days for 2 credits. Boosted listings are marked Featured.
Can I offer more than one service?
Yes. Create one listing per service. Each has its own rate, photos and description.
Someone is bothering me. What can I do?
Open the conversation and choose Block. They won't be able to message you again.
How do I stay safe?
Keep conversations on BeHire until you're comfortable, meet in daylight for first jobs, agree on the price in writing, and never pay in full before work starts.
