Marketplace Portal Open

Start with one simple choice.

You can look around first, post a local help request, or join the worker lane. RapidHireMe shows the next step, keeps private details protected, and keeps money movement locked until approved payment activation.

No wrong first click.
Users who feel unsure should choose Browse first. That path shows examples and rules without creating an account, submitting a request, or starting payment.
What do you need?The request asks the work type, time, place, and expected payout in plain language.
What stays private?Guests never see exact addresses, contact details, direct messages, or payment actions.
What will it cost?Job posters see worker payout, RapidHireMe fee, and PayPal/Venmo estimates before approved activation.
Browsing as Guest

Look around without creating an account.

Guest browse mode is the showroom. Visitors can see how requests, fees, examples, worker access, and safety rules work before they choose a role.

What guests can and cannot do

Guests can: browse public Marketplace structure, view safe listing summaries, explore example requests, review PayPal/Venmo fee estimates, and learn the worker/job-poster path.

Guests cannot: respond to work, message users, see private contact details, view exact addresses, post a live request, start payment, or claim worker availability.

Guest-browse promise: Browsing does not create an account, submit a request, charge money, activate escrow, reveal private data, or guarantee worker availability.
Marketplace remains separate from Secretary Service. Secretary Service is guided job-search support; Marketplace is for local requests, worker interest, and payment-controlled local work after approval gates.
Example 1: Need help moving boxesJob poster sees payout, safety notes, and fee estimate before any approved payment step.
Example 2: Want a short local shiftWorker sees the general area, task type, pay range, and safety rules before responding.
Example 3: Not ready yetGuest can browse first, then choose a lane when the next step feels clear.
How Marketplace Works

A simple path first, then the full local-work system.

RapidHireMe should feel easy at the top and powerful underneath. Visitors choose one plain path, then see how matching, review, safe contact, payment preview, and follow-through work together.

1. Local match25-mile local matching keeps opportunities practical by city, ZIP, radius, category, schedule, and pay.
2. Review + verifyRapidHireMe review, employer checks, worker profile readiness, and safety rules protect both sides.
3. Connect safelyWorkers and job posters get safe summaries first. Private contact, exact location, and messaging stay gated.
4. Hold paymentPayPal/Venmo fee previews explain worker payout, RapidHireMe handling fee, and processor estimates before activation.
5. Complete + reviewAfter approved payment launch, completion, payout release, dispute handling, and reviews belong in a controlled workflow.

Browse

Browse a curated local-work board before you submit.

Start broad, then drill down. The Marketplace should feel polished, simple, and useful even before a visitor signs up.

Post my own request
Request Builder

Create one clear request so workers can price it correctly.

The builder asks what, where, when, and what payment should cover. It helps visitors understand the service before they submit anything.

Draft stays local here
Public Listings

Live approved requests will appear after RapidHireMe review.

This section becomes powerful once approved requests exist. Until then, the curated example board above keeps guests oriented without making the portal feel empty.

No approved public Marketplace requests are posted yet.

RapidHireMe reviews requests before making them publicly visible. Guests should only see safe summaries: work category, general city/area, schedule window, payout range, and role-unlock buttons. Exact addresses, phone numbers, emails, direct messages, applications, and payment actions stay locked until sign-in, role selection, and approved workflow gates.

Example: warehouse cleanup help. Hidden until role unlock: exact address, direct contact, messaging, response action, payment setup, and worker assignment.

Worker roleAfter sign-up: build profile, respond to approved opportunities, and receive safe next steps.
Job-poster roleAfter sign-up: submit requests, manage responses, and review fees before payment activation.
Marketplace Fees

Job poster pays the worker payout plus RapidHireMe fees.

For Marketplace jobs handled through RapidHireMe payment review, the job poster pays the agreed worker payout plus a 10% RapidHireMe Marketplace escrow handling fee. Posting/review and estimated PayPal/Venmo processor costs are shown separately as estimate line items.

Founding Employer

Launch-period review access for early local job posters before fee collection is activated.

Single Post

$25 posting/review estimate for one local request after approved payment activation.

Local Starter

Up to 3 active posts per month for small local request volume after approval gates.

Business Pro

Higher-volume request review for businesses, still subject to manual compliance and payment approval.

Urgent Boost: Priority placement and nearby-worker alerts can be reviewed as an add-on, but no urgent placement, worker availability, or same-day outcome is guaranteed.
Payment processors may add costs. Marketplace checkout is PayPal and eligible Venmo only when approved. Processor fees, taxes, refunds, chargebacks, and dispute handling require separate policy before live launch.
Worker payout$200.00
RapidHireMe 10% escrow handling fee$20.00
Posting/review fee$25.00

Example only. This calculator helps the job poster understand the fee model before Marketplace payment movement is activated.

Messages

Keep scope, safety, and payment status inside the conversation.

Messages should feel like a record of the agreement, not a loose chat. Off-platform payment and sensitive-info requests are flagged.

Payment setup: Pending approved activation.

Secure payment setup

Requests and worker profiles are open now.

Marketplace portal is open for requests and worker signups. Job posters and workers can use the Marketplace portal now. PayPal/Venmo checkout, escrow funding, payout release, disputes, refunds, EIN verification automation, worker verification badges, and posting-fee collection remain production-controlled until payment approval is activated. Workers should not pay to apply.

Still controlled: Live PayPal/Venmo, escrow wording, payout release, dispute handling, and posting-fee collection need CEO/payment/compliance review before money movement starts.
