After the job
Pay, vouch, refer — in that order
Customers pay no platform fee and need no money-transfer account. You pay Ekasi by card or EFT, your worker withdraws cash at Shoprite, Pick n Pay, Boxer, PEP or Usave. Ekasi takes a 10% service fee from the worker's payout — never on top of your price.
- 1Pay safely
