$0 in fees — and your money is held until the job is done.

We dropped every fee for posters and workers. What we kept is the part that matters: payments are funded up front, held safely, and released only when you say so.

  1. 1. You fund the job

    Pay the agreed budget when you post. That's the whole bill — no service fee added on top.

  2. 2. Money is held

    Sidekickk holds it securely. The worker can see the job is funded before they lift a finger.

  3. 3. You release it

    When the worker marks the job done, you confirm and the full amount lands in their account.

No service fee. Ever.

Everything you'd expect from a job marketplace. Minus the cut.

Most platforms charge posters a service fee and take a commission out of the worker's payout. Sidekickk charges neither — but keeps the safeguards.

Fair questions

If it's free, how do you hold my money?+

Exactly the same way as before. Your payment is processed and held by Stripe, a regulated payment provider, until you confirm the job is complete. Being free changes what we charge — not how your money is protected.

Does the worker really get 100%?+

Yes. A $200 job pays the worker $200. We don't take a commission out of their payout and we don't add a fee to your bill.

What if the job isn't done properly?+

Don't release the payment. Message the worker first; if you can't sort it out, open a dispute and our team steps in. Money stays held until it's resolved.

What if I need to cancel?+

Cancel before a worker starts and the budget is refunded to your card.

So how does Sidekickk make money?+

Through optional listing boosts and tasteful ads on our browse and guide pages. Never from a cut of your job.

Made in Melbourne

More local jobs. More income. More freedom.

Sidekickk is built and run in Melbourne. Every job posted here is paid work created in this city — and the money stays in the suburb it came from. Households get things done for a price they agreed up front; workers choose their own hours, rates and travel radius.

Why made in Melbourne matters
  • Work on your terms

    Pick the jobs, days and suburbs that suit you. No rosters, no lead fees, no subscriptions.

  • Fair on both sides

    No commission, no service fee. Workers keep 100% of the job value and posters know the total before they commit.

  • Money protected

    Jobs are funded into escrow up front, so workers see the money is there and posters release it only when it's done.
