Frequently Asked Questions

Not at all! Many kinds of event work suit beginners, such as check-in, setup and hospitality. Your profile shows organizers your skills when you apply.

Your hours come from your check-in and check-out. The organizer sets your rate, approves your hours and pays you directly. You can follow every shift and pay run on your payments page.

Browse the upcoming events and apply to any that interest you. When the organizer confirms you, the shifts they assign appear in your staff portal.

While your application is still pending you can withdraw it yourself. Once the organizer has confirmed you, request a shift swap or contact them directly — as early as you can, because a late drop-out leaves them short-handed.

No minimums at all. Work one shift a year or five shifts a week — it's entirely up to you. The platform is designed for flexibility.
