How Wakazi verifies workers
Every worker verifies their email before they can take ordinary work. Profiles carry trust you can check at a glance: ratings and written reviews left only by customers who actually completed the work; a reliability score built from real response and completion signals — never self-declared; and an optional Verified ID badge earned through a live-camera ID-and-selfie check reviewed by a human. Work photos come from the worker's own portfolio, and no phone number or exact location is ever shown before you connect.

Common questions
One-off cleanup or regular care?
Both. Post a one-off overgrowth cleanup or describe the weekly routine you want. When a gardener earns your good rating, rehire them with a fresh post before their calendar fills.
Do they bring tools?
Usually yes for basic tools — but say what you have (lawn mower, shears) in the post so expectations are set. Anything unusual is confirmed in the chat once you connect, before the day.
What does it cost to hire a gardener?
Posting a Request and browsing Service Offers is free. To open chat, calls and live tracking for a job, the customer activates a digital Work Session — a small digital purchase priced by the app store for your country. The service payment itself is between you and the worker; Wakazi never takes a cut of it, and free Core keeps ordinary work access open for everyone.
Do workers see my exact address?
No. Before you connect, both sides only ever see an approximate, grid-rounded area. Your exact location and phone number stay hidden until you and the worker agree to work together — and the same privacy applies to the worker.
How do I know the worker is qualified?
Every worker is email-verified, ratings come only from real completed work, the reliability score reflects actual response and completion history, and for regulated trades verified credentials show the exact scope and recheck date. The optional Verified ID badge means a human reviewed their live-camera ID and selfie.
