How it works

Three steps. One filled shift.

01

Post

Describe what you need — stocking shelves, dishwashing, event setup. Set hours and pay rate. Takes 60 seconds, no account setup required.

02

Match

Local workers within 15 minutes of your location get notified instantly. They review the shift and claim it — no interviews, no resumes, no back-and-forth.

03

Fill

Your worker shows up, does the job, gets paid. You pay less than 20% in fees — half what staffing agencies charge. Workers you like become your go-to crew.

Real businesses. Real results.

Had a dishwasher no-show on a Friday night. Posted the shift at 5pm, had a replacement by 6pm. That shift was saved because of GigaShift.

We used to pay $22/hour after the agency took their cut. With GigaShift our workers get $18 and I pay less. Better for everyone.

I make $28/hour picking weekend shifts. Better than the gig apps and the jobs are actually close to my house. My regular spots remember me now.

Got questions? We've got answers.

Most shifts fill within 2 hours. Workers in your area get notified the moment you post, so you could have a confirmed worker before your shift even starts. It's not guaranteed — it depends on timing and location — but our average fill time is under 2 hours.

We charge 18% of the shift total. That's it. No setup fees, no monthly subscription, no cancellation fees. You only pay when a shift fills. Compare that to staffing agencies that take 25–50% — you keep more of your money and your workers get better pay.

Workers create an account and verify their phone number before they can claim shifts. We're working on more formal background checks as we grow. Local workers have reputational stakes — they're not anonymous gig-app workers. A bad experience gets reported, and workers who don't show up get flagged.

Anything that's legal and local. Dishwashers, stockers, event setup, delivery help, cleaning, data entry, moving help — if it's hourly work, you can post it. Shifts are for same-day or next-day needs. You set the pay rate, hours, and location.

Because Facebook Groups are chaotic, CL is sketchy, and neither has a payment system. On GigaShift: workers are verified, payments go through automatically, and you never lose money to no-shows. You post once, a worker shows up, everyone gets paid. No texting back and forth, no chasing venmo, no ghosting.

If a worker doesn't show up, you can flag the shift and we won't charge the platform fee on that shift. We're building toward a proper dispute resolution system — this is a small community, and workers who don't show don't last here long. We'd rather solve it directly than leave you hanging.

Yes. Your first shift's platform fee is on us — you just pay the worker's wages directly. No credit card required upfront, no hidden terms. Post the shift, get a worker, pay the worker. If it doesn't work out, it cost you nothing.

Your neighbors are ready
to show up for you.

Every Montgomery County business has been there — short-staffed, scrambling, calling in favors. GigaShift connects you to local workers who know the area, need the work, and show up. First shift is on us.
