Safe-dealing tips

Before you start

What people ask first

Is it free to find gig work here?: Yes. Listing what you do is free, there is no monthly fee, and LokalGig takes zero commission on any job you get. You keep 100% of what you charge.
Do I need a registered business or an SSM number?: No. Individuals list here every day — students, fresh grads, tradesmen and people doing this alongside a full-time job. You only need a Malaysian phone number on WhatsApp.
How do I actually get paid?: Directly by the client. LokalGig never holds your money, so there is nothing to withdraw and nothing to wait for. Most people settle by DuitNow, bank transfer, or cash on completion.
Is this full-time work or side income?: Either. Some people list one service and take a job or two a month around their studies or their day job; others run their whole trade off it. You control how much you take on.
