How it stays free
Employers pay. You keep 100% of your pay.
Yakka makes money when employers publish full job Posts ($25 each) and when larger companies use our managed hiring. The person you work for pays you directly to your PayID or bank account. Yakka never touches your wages.

Questions from labourers
Does Yakka take a cut of my pay?
No. The person you work for pays you directly to the PayID or bank account on your invoice. Payments are not processed inside the app, so nothing is taken out.
So how does Yakka make money?
Employers pay $25 for full job Posts, and larger companies pay for managed hiring. That keeps the app free for workers.
Do I need an ABN to sign up?
No. You can sign up and apply without one. Whether a job is casual employment or ABN work depends on the job, so check before you start.
Is it free to add my tickets?
Yes. Uploading your White Card, licences and other documents to your profile is free. Courses for tickets are paid to the training provider, not to Yakka.
Which phones does the app work on?
Yakka Labour is on iPhone and Android. Download it from the App Store or Google Play.
