As an app-enabled platform HelloJack! acts to match End Users with Contractors and/or Handymen to perform tasks as required by the End Users.  HelloJack! will have a contractual relationship with Contractors and Handymen; and at the same time, a contractual relationship with the End Users.  It is with the unique two-way yet independent contractual relationships that the intended assignments will be carried out in the timely, high-standard fashion.

A unique, designated payment gateway(s) will be employed by HelloJack! to be the custodian of payment and act as the sole token for payment transfer from the End Users to the Contractors or Handymen.  The same mechanism will perform tasks to retain HelloJack!’s portion of the proceeds as its profit margin.

 

At the satisfactory completion of tasks, assignments, projects, End Users will be required to make payment through these payment gateways at once as instructed by HelloJack!.  Contractors/Handymen will receive their payment usually between 3 to 7 days after completion of the job as arranged by the payment gateways concerned.
