Frequently asked questions

What is escrow and how does it work?
Escrow is a security account where money is held neutrally until the job is done. When the customer selects a contractor, the money is reserved with us. The contractor can see the money exists but cannot withdraw it until both parties confirm the work is complete.
What happens if I'm not satisfied with the work?
If you're not satisfied, you can request revisions before approving the work. The money is not released until you confirm everything is done. In case of disagreement, our customer service is available for mediation.
What does it cost to use Helpo?
For customers: Completely free. For contractors: Free to register. Commission from 2.5% to 12% depending on subscription. No hidden costs.
How long does it take to get paid as a contractor?
After both parties confirm the job is complete, the money is typically transferred within 2-3 business days to your bank account.
Are my payment details secure?
Yes, we use PCI DSS-certified payment partners. All sensitive data is encrypted. We never store complete card details.
Can I use Helpo without a company?
