Project Notice:Pre-Launch Phase (HuBu-Intel)
Launching across Australia. Going global next.

Need a hand?
Lending one?
Either way, you win.

The app where everyday help becomes everyday income. Post what you need, or offer what you do. Two roles. One you.

Zero registration fees. Zero transport fees. Zero fixed fees.

Work when you want, where you want, what you want, and with whom you want.

The concept

Two roles. One you.

HelpyHandy connects two kinds of people: someone who needs help, and someone willing to give it. The twist? You can be both. Flip the switch in the app any time you like.

You as Seeker

You decide what you need and what you pay.

Post once. Set your price. Watch the right helpers come to you.

  • Write a Post for Helper describing what you need.
  • Set your offer in AUD. You choose the price.
  • Pick the date, time and how often you need it. One-off or repeating.
  • See only the helpers who accepted, or who countered within range.
  • Choose the helper whose rating, reviews and price feel right.
Flip anytime
You as Helper

You see the posts. You pick the work. You name your price.

Browse what is nearby. Apply at the offered price, or negotiate. Get paid.

  • Browse posts on a map or in a list. See distance, drive time and transit time at a glance.
  • Tap a seeker's photo to see their rating and reviews.
  • Apply at the offered price, or negotiate within twenty percent either way.
  • Work the hours you want. Today, tomorrow, never. It is up to you.
  • Get paid fast. Plus, every tip is one hundred percent yours.
Every post and every profile shows a photo and rating. Tap once to read the full reviews. Both sides rate each other from 1 to 10 after every job, because the best community is one where we treat each other the way we want to be treated.
Why we built this

This is not just an app.
It is a movement.

For too long, work has meant fixed hours, fixed places, and a fixed slice of someone else's pie. We are flipping that. HelpyHandy hands you the freedom of choice, the ownership of your time, and the dignity of getting paid for kindness. Help someone today, earn something today. As simple as that.

01

Freedom of time

Work whenever you want. Stop whenever you want. Your life, not a roster.

02

Freedom of place

Stay in your suburb or roam wider. The work comes to you, not the other way around.

03

A good deed, paid

Every job is one person genuinely helping another. Getting paid for kindness is good for everyone.

04

You are an owner

Every user is a brand ambassador. The more you grow it, the more it grows for you. Treat it like your business.

What is in it for you

Real benefits, both sides.

Two roles. Two sets of wins. Same app.

Benefits for the Seeker

When you need a hand, get the right one, fast and fair.

  • 1

    You set the price

    You decide what the help is worth. No surge pricing, no hidden fees on your side.

  • 2

    You pick the time

    Exact date, exact time. One-off, or repeat daily, weekly, fortnightly, monthly or quarterly.

  • 3

    You see the right helpers

    You only get applicants who accepted your offer, or whose counter-offer fits a sensible range. No spam.

  • 4

    You judge before you choose

    Every helper comes with their photo, rating from 1 to 10, and honest reviews from past seekers.

  • 5

    Your money is protected

    Funds are held until the job is done and you approve. No completion, no release.

$0 sign-up. $0 delivery. You pay only the price you agreed, plus any tip you choose.

Benefits for the Helper

When you have time and skill, turn them into income on your terms.

  • 1

    93% of the transaction is yours

    A small 7% platform fee covers everything HelpyHandy does. 93% of every transaction, plus 100% of every tip, goes directly to you.

  • 2

    One hundred percent of every tip

    Tips are extra. They go straight to you. Untouched.

  • 3

    You choose the job

    See posts on a map or list. See the price, the distance, the drive time and the transit time before you apply.

  • 4

    You can negotiate

    Accept the offer, or counter within twenty percent either way. The seeker picks the helper they like best.

  • 5

    You build a real reputation

    Great work earns great reviews. Great reviews earn more work. Your rating is your career.

7%
One small platform fee. That is it. No registration fees. No delivery fees. Plus one hundred percent of every tip is yours.
The HelpyHandy promise

Built on freedom, trust and ease.

No long contracts. No buried fees. No locked rosters. Just three simple commitments that shape every feature we ship.

Freedom

Your time, your terms. Work when you want, where you want, with whom you want. Switch off whenever life calls.

  • No shifts. Start and stop in seconds.
  • No quotas. Do one job a month or ten a day.
  • No cages. Switch between Seeker and Helper any moment.

Trust

Every face is verified. Every job is logged. Every review is real. The community keeps itself honest, and we have its back.

  • Verified identity with two IDs and a live selfie.
  • Permanent reviews from 1 to 10. No deletions.
  • Funds held safe until you confirm the job is done.

Ease

Two taps and you are in. Sign in with Google or Apple. Post or browse in seconds. We built this to feel as light as a tap.

  • Instant sign-in with Google or Apple.
  • Two main tabs: Home and Me. That is it.
  • Zero learning curve for anyone, of any age.
Anyone with hands and heart

Who can apply. What you can ask for.

If you are over eighteen and in Australia, you are in. If it is legal, polite, and within your power to do, you can post it or apply for it.

Who can apply

Open to everyone in Australia at launch, going global soon after.

Eighteen or older

Adults only. Verified by ID at sign-up.

Living in Australia

Open to Australian residents at launch. Other countries coming next.

A smartphone and a heart

iOS or Android. Plus a willingness to be kind, fair and honest.

Identity verified

Two IDs plus a live selfie. Done once, and you are in the trust circle.

No experience required

Whether you have done one favour or a thousand, you can start today.

The kind of help we love

There are no fixed categories. Write it in your own words. Here is what people are already asking for:

Help moving boxes Walk my dog Clean my garage Mow the lawn Tutor my child in maths Fix a leaky tap Pick up groceries Drive Mum to her appointment Assemble flat-pack furniture Set up my new printer Babysit for two hours Tidy my wardrobe Wash my car Run an errand Translate a document Garden weeding Carry shopping upstairs Photograph an event
No categories. No drop-downs. Describe what you need in your own words, up to 200 characters. Helpers see the post and decide if it suits them. Honest, human, simple.
How it works

Two taps from done.

From download to paid help, here is every single step. No surprises. No fine print up the sleeve.

Hamburger menu

Everything in one tap

Help, payments, support, settings, privacy, log out. Top right of the Me tab, always.

Built safe by design

Trust is not a feature.
It is the floor.

Three layers of safety wrap every job, every chat, every payment. Real people, real verification, real accountability.

Verified identity

Every user submits two forms of ID and a live selfie before they can post or apply. No anonymous accounts. No drop-ins.

  • Two government IDs cross-checked
  • Live selfie match with face
  • One person, one account

Funds held safely

The seeker's payment is held the moment the job is accepted. Helpers see the money is there. Nobody is left chasing it.

  • Held until the seeker confirms
  • Released the moment work is done
  • Disputes paused, not ignored

Permanent reviews

Every rating from 1 to 10 stays forever. Reviews cannot be deleted. Your reputation is built on truth, not on a refresh button.

  • Honest reviews, both ways
  • Cannot be removed by either side
  • Visible to everyone before they choose

Chat that knows when to stop

The in-app chat auto-deletes two hours after a job is marked done. Privacy by default. No old conversations lingering on anybody's phone.

Fair, firm, transparent

The four-stage policy.

A friendly community needs friendly rules. Here is exactly how things escalate if someone does the wrong thing, for either side.

Stage 1

Warning

A friendly heads-up. The behaviour is noted on the account. Most people get the message and never see stage two.

Stage 2

Restriction

Specific features get paused: new posts, new applications, or messaging. Time to take a beat and reset.

Stage 3

Suspension

The account is suspended for a fixed period. A formal review follows. Only proven good faith returns access.

Stage 4

Permanent ban

For serious or repeated breaches, the account is permanently closed. Identity is recorded so re-registration is blocked.

What can put either side on a stage

Same standards, both ways. This is how we keep the community kind, honest and useful for everyone.

For Seekers

  • Cancelling a job after the helper has arrived without good reason.
  • Asking for work outside what was posted and agreed.
  • Trying to pay off-platform to avoid the platform fee.
  • Posting jobs that are unsafe, illegal, or require regulated qualifications.
  • Harassment, rudeness, or false reviews against a helper.
  • Refusing to confirm a job that was clearly completed.

For Helpers

  • No-show or last-minute cancel without notice.
  • Doing less than what was agreed in the post.
  • Asking for extra payment on the day, off the app.
  • Unsafe, unprofessional, or disrespectful behaviour on site.
  • False photos or fake completion claims.
  • Sharing personal contact to take future jobs off-platform.
Real questions, real answers

You ask. We answer.

Everything we get asked the most, in one tidy stack.

Is HelpyHandy really free to join?

Yes. Zero registration fees and zero delivery fees. The only cost is a small platform fee of 7% taken from each completed job, which keeps the lights on and the app safe for everyone. No sneaky charges. No surprises.

Can I be both a Seeker and a Helper?

Absolutely. You can switch roles in one tap. Post a job in the morning. Help someone in the afternoon. Same account, same rating, one community.

How does payment work?

The seeker authorises the payment when they accept a helper. The money is held safely until the job is confirmed done. Once confirmed, the helper is paid straight away. Tips are extra and always go fully to the helper.

What if I do not like the price offered?

Helpers can negotiate within twenty percent either way. The seeker then sees the counter-offer with your rating and reviews, and decides who to pick. Polite, simple, transparent.

How does HelpyHandy keep me safe?

Every user is verified with two IDs and a live selfie. Funds are held safely until the job is confirmed. Reviews are permanent. And the in-app chat auto-deletes two hours after a job is done, so old conversations do not stick around.

How fast do I get paid?

The moment the seeker taps confirm, your share lands in your in-app balance. Withdraw to your bank account whenever you like.

What if there is a dispute?

We pause the payment release and ask both sides for their side of the story, including the before-and-after photos and chat history (until it auto-deletes). HelpyHandy reviews the case and resolves it fairly under our published policies.

Do I need experience or qualifications?

For everyday help, no. Just be honest about what you can do. For anything that needs a licence (think electrical, plumbing, regulated trades), the work must comply with the law and you must hold any required licence. The platform is for help, not for unlicensed regulated work.

Where is HelpyHandy available?

Launching in Australia first, with the rest of the world to follow soon after. Sign up below and we will let you know the moment you can start.

How do I get more work as a helper?

Be brilliant. Be on time. Be kind. Earn great ratings, and seekers will pick you first. Treat HelpyHandy like your own business and the platform will treat you the same way. Every user is also a brand ambassador, so the more you grow the community, the more the community grows you.

Get in touch

Be one of the first to lend, or get, a hand.

Join the community early, become an ambassador, or just say hello. We read every single message and respond within two business days.
