How does the service fee apply with Instant Claim?

The tiered pricing fee structure applies to each task, including those you’ve obtained through Instant Claim. 

With subscriptions, as you have a schedule of repeating tasks with regular income, you’re more likely to achieve a higher tier and get a lower fee. As you enter into a new cycle and payment is secured from a Poster’s card, the system will identify which tier the cycle puts you into and locks into the relevant fee rate

What does "take-home" mean?

Take-home is the amount of money you’ll receive in your account once a task through Instant Claim is complete. We have already deducted the service fee and GST - so what you see is what you’ll get!

We took feedback that it takes time to subtract these costs to determine whether something will be profitable for you. This is why we’ve changed it to show the “take-home” amount to help you claim more quickly and earn money faster.

How do you figure out how much instant claimables should cost?

Instant claimables use a special kind of form, clarifying almost all the information Taskers need to know about a Poster’s requirements, including whether you need to bring equipment or products. The system then generates a fair price per task, which is non-negotiable and paid for in advance by the Poster.

Our team spends a lot of time and effort to figure out the right questions to ask in order to calculate the right price for each type of task. This involves in-depth research on industry rates, talking to lots of Taskers and diving deep into our data on the marketplace. Our main aim was to make sure that the prices generated are fair and accurate.

Because we believe in the importance of fair pricing, we’ll make sure to update prices if anything changes or if we discover that we’ve incorrectly priced things (if this happens, it was probably due to limited information at the time).

Remember, the choice is yours to claim a task - you’re your own boss! If you’re not keen on a particular task, then don’t claim it.
