What Happens After I Post My Task?

5 min readFor Requesters

Your Task Is Live

Once you publish your task, Favor On-Demand begins connecting you with nearby Helpers who may be interested in completing it.

From there, the process is simple, transparent, and designed to keep both Requesters and Helpers informed every step of the way.

What Happens Next

1

Step 1Your Task Becomes Available

After your task is published, it becomes visible to eligible nearby Helpers. Helpers can review your task details, budget, location, and any photos or videos you've provided. Helpers decide whether the task is a good fit for their skills, experience, and availability.

The more complete your task listing is, the more confident Helpers can feel when deciding whether to accept it.

Step 2A Helper Accepts Your Task

When a Helper accepts your task, you'll receive a notification through the app. Depending on how the task is accepted, you may also have the opportunity to view the Helper's profile, read ratings and reviews, see completed task history, and learn more about their experience.

This helps you feel confident about who you're working with.

Step 3Communicate Before the Task Begins

Once you're connected, you and your Helper can communicate through the in-app messaging system. This is the perfect time to discuss arrival time, parking or gate instructions, materials or tools, special requests, questions about the task, and any additional details that weren't included in the original posting.

Clear communication helps prevent misunderstandings and sets everyone up for success.

Step 4Confirm the Scope of Work

Before work begins, your Helper will confirm that they understand and agree to the scope of work described in your task. This confirmation helps ensure both sides have the same expectations regarding the work to be completed, materials and tools, budget, location, and any agreed-upon details discussed through messaging.

Taking a moment to confirm these details helps create a smoother experience and reduces the chance of misunderstandings once work begins.

Step 5Your Task Gets Completed

After the work is finished, you'll have the opportunity to confirm that the task has been completed. Once confirmed, payment is processed securely through the app, the Helper receives their payout according to our payment process, and both parties may have the opportunity to leave ratings and feedback.

Your feedback helps build a trusted community for everyone.

What If I Need to Make Changes?

Plans can change. Depending on your task's status, you may be able to:

Update certain task details.
Adjust your budget.
Clarify instructions through messaging.
Cancel the task in accordance with our cancellation policy.

If changes affect the scope of work, discuss them with your Helper before the task begins.
