Giggo, an app that connects contractors with homeowners looking to hire, has launched exclusively in Chicago. The app allows you to find work in your local community without being employed by a big company.
Are you looking for a side-hustle to provide a bit of extra income? Do you have skills that people could find useful around their homes? Check out this app to find local people who are looking to hire someone just like you for a bit of extra work.
The Giggo app makes receiving payments easier for both contractors and customers. All contractors and freelancers are required to be verified by Stripe, a financial services company. This added protection helps to verify the identities of users and smooth the payment process after a job is complete.

The app also allows you to easily track payments. Receipts can be generated individually for each job through the application, and quotes or invoices can be sent to the customers instantly.
The application is currently exclusive to Chicago, and the Apple store, though the company is currently working on expanding throughout the USA. Customers who download the app can search for services by the type of work they require and will be provided with a list of local contractors who also use the app.
Individuals looking for side jobs or companies who choose to use Giggo can create their own teams of service providers, as well as working solo. To use the app, you only need to register and fill in some basic information. New clients can find registered users, describe jobs to them, and request quotes.
Once you have received a request and provided a quote, the customer has the choice to accept. If the quote is accepted, you must provide an estimated time of arrival. Then, when the job is complete, you can be paid directly through the Giggo app.
The application has an intuitive interface that was designed with contractor-customer relations in mind. It includes features such as status update buttons you can easily access while driving, to let the homeowners know when you will be arriving. This is important because of a new time-limited feature that encourages promptness in providers.
If a service request is accepted but you cannot show up within two hours, the customer has the option to cancel the request and seek a new provider. The customer can also send status updates in the event of circumstance changes in a job. These paired features provide an incentive for both parties involved in a service request to communicate.
If you're ready to put your home improvement skills to work in exchange for some extra cash, then you need to get registered with Giggo. Find the jobs you want, and help out your community - all in one app.
