Super Spammy Notifications for Lowest Contract Pay.
It’s just not a good setup compared to their competitor apps like RedPeg, Trusted Herd, Field Day, Victory Marketing, or possibly even CraigsList that might actually pay you what you’re worth. You decline offers that would actually COST you money that would sound great to anyone that doesn’t know how to pay taxes for contract work—and still get spammy notifications. The people who run this company are money hungry grifters sponging off hard workers.
My advice: pay a minimum of $25 for contract work (considering taxes not being taken out of the check) and stop spamming people with horrible jobs like we didn’t see a quarter on the ground.
This app is more spammy/annoying than a dysfunctional Doorbell camera.
However, UX/UI is great. Props to the devs on this.

Finally got a gig and it all went perfectly
Have been applying for gigs for weeks and I finally got one. One of the gigs I had applied for sent me a request to work a shift, which I didn’t know was a thing, but was super stoked that it is! A representative from the app called me upon my acceptance and gave me a play by play of what the gig was going to be like, as well as instructions for what to do next and answered any of my questions. The gig requester contacted me right away (which was awesome because with most of the other gig apps you can’t even get ahold of the businesses you’ll be working with/they have outdated contact info). When I got to work it was a blast! I was able to make the necessary changes to my time sheet and it was approved and I was paid within 24 hours! Love this app!

Could be better way better
I don’t need someone to call and ask me if I’m going to show up everyday . This new feature where you confirming is useless … that’s the whole reason you cancel before the 10 hour mark if they don’t follow through suspend them unless a valid reason but I just got my job and didn’t even have a message to confirm it ANYWHERE and it canceled my shift and put me behind ALSO gig requesters should NOT be allowed to wait until Day3 to pay us because a lot of them are purposely waiting or taking there time to pay us , we should be paid as soon as gig is over or the next day not wait 3 whole days for a job that we already completed and requesters waiting to pay us just because they can, when alot of us are on this app because we can’t wait 2 weeks to get paid our kids are hungry Now !
also we should be compensated option to get more requesters on the app for people who need workers immediately. Also instead of suspending someone for two weeks the first offense should not be so long some of us live off this app and life happens to everyone . Punish the people who consistently make it a habit and consecutively cancel last minute.

my accounts got restricted. I never used it.
I made my profile, and I applied a few jobs, and I got very irate, and I message the employer, because I never really worked gigs before other than Veryable and Wonolo, which are also very good ones, however, my experience with them they first from a lot of you guys. So, after messaging, those employers, my account got restricted, and they say I violated the terms. So I never worked one job with gigsmart, but managed to get my account blocked. And then I reached out to them after the 45 days of course. And they forward me with this message.
We will not be lifting the restriction on your account. You submitted a very inappropriate and unprofessional support ticket which is a violation of our terms and conditions
We wish you the best in your future endeavors.
GigSmart Support
I guess me asking repeatedly when will I know if I get hired for a job? And perhaps point out the employers incompetence and letting me know what’s going on really tells you how shallow they can be as well. Try Wonolo and the best one so far is veryable. But this one lacks customer support and they do get back to you, but very mean. Meanwhile, the other ones always get back to you very kindly, but got gigs. They are extremely mean. So a big middle finger to y’all

Don’t bother
There are literally nothing available at all. Okay fine I’ll delete my account. Nope!!! You have to ask them if it’s okay then they have 24-72 hours to approve this request. What??? Just delete very odd. However since I didn’t even have opportunities this should be an easy process but nope my account is still up. I tried messaging support and there was an error. Tried again and it worked. Will I hear back? Who knows? All I want is my account deleted there’s no reason to keep my account open if I don’t want it to be. Very weird.

Not bad if you want to make money on your own time.
I really enjoy this app. I think it’s organized pretty well for the most part. I do think that their a little harsh with their penalties if you were to call out a shift within 24 hours ; banning somebody for seven days, in my opinion doesn’t seem productive at all. I almost stopped using the app after that …other than that pretty easy to maneuver through.. the agents definitely tend to call way too much to notify you of your shift. Way better than Bluecrew, as an app though.

Gigsmart
Gigs stay rolling in for sure! Only thing pay Could be “lil” more , also wish they had options for jobs such as stage hand, videographer, camera op, photographer since I’m in Atlanta. Besides that, gigsmart is great and allows you to work on your time.
Very disappointed in gigsmart process
I’ve had this app for months and I can say it’s one of the worse job apps I have. I will no longer be using this app. I have been applying for jobs on this app and this is my first time getting something. When the other work apps I have soon as a job is available I can click it agree to the terms and be on the schedule. I have had another app for only a week and have had 5 gig so far with that app and it doesn’t count the gigs I have for after the holidays. I wouldn’t recommend gigsmart to anyone.

DO NOT!!
Shifts come once every 3 weeks! Employee can change your time schedule they don’t pay overtime most gigs do not last as long as your scheduled they will take money out of your earning TAKE 5 days to pay you and when you call to talk about it they will get rude with you and restrict your account and process payment at the last minute they have! I worked a shift on thanksgiving and still have yet to be paid!

Not even worth wasting the space on your phone.
This app, frequently crashes. In the middle of an application sent me back to Home Screen didn’t save my application had to restart. Then when logging in won’t take my Apple ID. Absolutely not worth the headache and I wish I had known this beforehand. And the gigs are so few and far between. I’m in Orlando area and there’s ALWAYS events and things going on. Please, save yourself the stress! 0/10 this app couldn’t even perform on base operating level.
