Everything you need to know before booking your first task.
How do I know my tasker is trustworthy?
Every tasker goes through an identity check (NIN verification), proof of address review, and an in-person onboarding session before they can accept any tasks. You can also track your tasker in real time and receive photo and video updates throughout the task.
What is the money-back guarantee?
Every Jakada booking is covered by a 100% money-back guarantee. If your task isn't completed to your satisfaction, request a full refund directly from your tracking page within 7 days of completion. For cancellations before a tasker is matched, refunds are instant.
What happens if something goes wrong?
Jakada backs every booking with a 100% money-back guarantee. Your payment is held in escrow and only released once you confirm the task is done. If it isn't done to your satisfaction, request a refund from your tracking page within 7 days — no argument, no waiting.
How are updates sent to me?
Your tasker sends real-time updates via WhatsApp — photos, videos, and messages at every stage of the task. No app required on your end; just the WhatsApp you already use.
What currencies can I pay in?
We accept GBP and USD via Stripe. All major cards are supported. Pricing is transparent — you'll see the full breakdown before confirming your booking.
Can I schedule a task in advance?
Yes. You can book same-day (before 3 PM WAT) or schedule up to weeks ahead. For advance bookings, tasker matching begins 48 hours before your chosen date.
Which parts of Lagos do you cover?
We currently operate across Lagos Island, Victoria Island, Lekki, Ikoyi, and surrounding areas. If you're unsure whether we cover your location, just book and we'll confirm.
What types of tasks can I book?
Three categories: General Errands (shopping, queuing, pick-ups), Property Checks (visits, documentation, reporting), and Gifting (collecting and delivering surprise gifts). Each has its own booking flow tailored to the task.
