Why escrow matters

Your money never leaves your control.

Sending money home has always meant trusting that the work will get done. GigGap changes that. When you hire, your payment is held safely in escrow, not handed over. The professional can see the money is there and committed, so they start with confidence. You only release it once the job is finished and you are happy.

No more sending cash and hoping for the best.
Track every job and approval from your phone.
Money released only when you approve.
Free to use No subscription, no platform fee. The only money you spend is what you choose to pay your pro.

I manage repairs on my mother's house in Banjul from London. I hire, I pay, and I see the work approved, all from my phone. It's the first time sending money home actually felt accountable.
