Earn money doing what you're good at

As a provider on Helpo you find assignments near you β€” without chasing customers yourself.

1. Create your profile

Sign up and complete your provider profile: which services you offer, where you work, and your experience. Add your F-tax certificate (individual) or organization number (company) β€” it's required to apply for jobs. Students can use Helpo Mini with simplified verification.

2. Find jobs

Browse open jobs under Browse jobs or on the map. Create a saved search to get notified when new jobs match your criteria.

3. Send a strong application

  • Respond quickly β€” customers often choose among the first applications
  • Be specific: what's included in your price and when can you start?
  • Set a realistic price β€” you can see the customer's budget on the job

4. Do the work and get paid

When the customer accepts your application, the payment is locked in a neutral account. Do the job, mark it as done, and receive the payout once the customer approves β€” minus the platform fee for your tier.
