Questions, answered

Know what happens before you request.

How do I post a Task?

Create and verify your Local profile first. Once your account is active, you’ll add the scope, timing, requirements and budget from your private Local portal.

How do I select a Student Worker?

Eligible Student Workers can apply after the marketplace opens. You will be able to review qualified options and select or book a Student Worker through the platform.

Can I require screening?

Yes. You can request a Student Worker with a current criminal-screening badge for an additional fee. Screening reduces uncertainty but does not guarantee safety.

How is the booking fee calculated?

The Local booking fee is $10 for labor under $75, $15 from $75–$100, $20 from $100.01–$199.99, and 10% at $200 or more. Processing is included; legally required sales tax is shown separately.

When is identity verification required?

Both Locals and Student Workers must complete driver’s-license identity verification through a secure verification provider before a Local can fund a Task or a Student Worker can apply. Do not send identity documents through this website form.

Account first. Task details second.
