Please, if you have already worked with this website let me know how much the website gets and if you pay tax on the cash earned (if Yes, how does it work?). Thanks!

It appears that you are an independent micro worker or what you might call a freelancer. You will download and install the app on your phone. Inside the app are different micro jobs or tasks that you can complete. You'll select the job you want, complete the task and the client pays you when you're done.

On the other hand, the company has fixed rates that they charge people to post their jobs. For example, a handyman job is charged %50 an hour to post it on the job board. You are only paid $35 an hour to complete this task. This holds true for any other job listed on the app. The company is paid by the client and posts the work on the work on the app. You accept the job at the pay rate indicated on the app. Once the job has been successfully completed you'll receive the money according to the pay rate and how many hours you worked. The company has already taken their cut when the customer posted the job on the app. Therefore, you are being paid the hourly rate for the job without any deductions or taxes take out. You are an independent contract work and will be responsible for keeping track of your earnings and paying your own taxes.

Apps like this don't have any type of health benefits, insurance, or tax deductions. You basically work for this company at your own risk and hopefully, you won't get hurt on the job. Because if you do, there is no compensation for this.

No, Askfortask does not get a percentage of your payment for tasks done in Canada. You will be paid directly by the person who posted the task, and you will be responsible for remitting any taxes you owe on the income.

I'm not sure about the specific policies of Askfortask, as they may vary depending on the nature of the task and the agreement between the client and the tasker. However, it is common for online task platforms to charge a commission or service fee for facilitating transactions between clients and taskers. These fees may be a percentage of the task value or a flat fee, and they are typically deducted from the tasker's earnings before they are paid out. It's always a good idea to review the platform's policies and fees before accepting tasks to make sure you understand the terms of the agreement.

Yes, Askfortask charges a service fee or commission on the total payment for completed tasks, which varies depending on the task category and the total amount. The fee ranges from 10% to 20%.
