After you Post a job (app or WhatsApp), choose Primaries from applicants, optionally add Standby, then Book with a card hold. You can pick Primary on WhatsApp; Pay opens a link into the app before the three-hour pending deadline.
How it works
Applicants appear as circle cards with photo, status, rating and rate. Swipe the stack and use hearts to choose who fits.
Fill every Primary slot first (solid heart). When the command card shows Ready to Book, tap Book. Add Standby (outline heart) only if you want a backup.
You can cancel at no fee until four hours before start. After that a fee may apply because workers are already preparing or travelling.
What to do
-
Watch the command card
Under the circle cards, the coloured command card walks you through Awaiting Applications → Select Primary Workers → Select Standby Workers (only if applicants remain) → Ready to Book. It also shows slot counts and a countdown to the book cut-off.
-
Select Primary first
Swipe applicants on the circle stack. Solid heart = Primary; outline heart = Standby when Primary is full; heart-crack deselects. When every Primary slot is full, tap Book. See Primary and Standby.
-
Book in time
Tap Book by three hours before start. Pending jobs that are not booked auto-cancel at that point. You do not need Standby to tap Book.
Selecting your primary workers and confirming your booking before the cut-off guarantees your shift is locked in with a dedicated local team. Having full control over candidate selection and optional standby cover gives you complete peace of mind while protecting both your schedule and budget.
