✅ Get the blue Verified Pro badge.

Confirm your phone number. Confirm your email. Upload your ID for admin review (one-time, never shown publicly). Once you're cleared, a blue Verified Pro badge appears on your profile — and your name floats above unverified bidders in the search results.

Seekers know you're a real person, in a real suburb, with a real trade. Drive-by bidders don't get the badge. Simple signal, big trust difference.

💬 Talk to the seeker. Not a call-centre. Not a "lead specialist". The seeker.

When someone wants a quote, you message them directly through Handi-za. You can ask the questions you'd normally ask on a phone call — what's the access like, what's the deadline, can you send a photo. No middleman summarising the brief. No platform pretending the connection is worth a fee.

Just two people sorting out a job, like the trade has always worked.

📋 Need three quotes before you decide? Done.

Post one job. Invite up to 3 specific pros to quote on the same brief. Three real quotes in one round, no commitment, no phone calls until you're ready.

💰 You quote R1 200 for the job. You get R1 200 for the job.

Handi-za doesn't take a percentage. Doesn't "process" the payment. Doesn't average down your rates. Doesn't suggest a "fair price" lower than what you wrote. The price you quote the seeker is the price they pay you — directly, the way you've always done it.

Set your hourly rate. Set your call-out fee. Set your minimum job size. We don't touch any of it.

⭐ Why our reviews aren't fake.

On Handi-za, you can only review a tradesperson if the job in our system reached "Completed" status. No anonymous drive-by 1-stars. No paid-for 5-stars. No bots.

Both sides review each other after the work. Both reviews go live at the same time so neither can retaliate. Starsyou can actually trust.

👨‍💻 Why we built Handi-za.

"We watched friends and family get burned by quote-shopping, no-show contractors, and inflated middleman pricing on jobs that should have cost half what they paid. Handi-za is our attempt to fix all three with one design constraint: zero commission." — Handi-za team, founders.

No VC. No co-founder. Just a Cape Town Computer Science postgrad and a year of patient code.
