The Side Hustle app is a groundbreaking platform that immediately connects people seeking assistance, the posters, with hard-working hustlers who can get the job done. The Side Hustle app is easy to use. Once you create an account and have logged in you will be automatically directed to the Hustle Hub (Homepage) where current jobs will be displayed. Along with the option to post any needed job in the right-hand corner. This post includes the type of work needed, location, geographical radius, and what they are willing to pay an available hustler. Once a poster connects and selects a hustler, for a minimal cost, monies will be held in escrow until completion of the job. Hustlers will create their own profile page in the Hustle Hub which will include their Experience, Earnings ( history of jobs and what they’ve been paid), and Feedback which includes reviews from previous customers as well as a 5-star rating system. Hustlers can optimize their selectivity by submitting to a standard background check for a small additional fee. The SIDE HUSTLE app is the ideal experience for people requesting help with in-home assistance, lawn care, pet watching, plumbing, moving, painting, and much more. Side Hustle App is the perfect way for a college student that is looking to make extra cash or an experienced day laborer seeking additional work and opportunities.
