💡Your Bee needs more details about the task? No problem – you can clarify everything in the task chat.
Enter a preferred date or tap the calendar icon to choose one.
If you don’t need or can’t give a fixed date – for example, for recurring tasks – just leave the field blank.
The “Anytime” setting will remain active.
In the next step, select the suitable timeframe – multiple selections are possible!
Example 1: You want your bathroom painted
Date: Start (Anytime) | End (Anytime)
Timeframe: “From 4:00 PM to 10:00 PM”
Example 2: Tutoring for your kids
Date: Start (Anytime) | End: “30.05.20XX”
Timeframe: “From 12:00 PM to 4:00 PM”
💡No fixed date? No problem. Just leave the field blank – the Bee can coordinate with you via chat.
Enter your address and select at least the correct street with ZIP code from the dropdown. This info is needed to check if your location is eligible for a task.
Currently, tasks are only possible within Austria.
Only your ZIP code will be visible in the posted task – not your full address.
Then set your budget, i.e. how much you’re willing to pay to have the task completed.
Example 1:
You want your 15 m² bathroom painted, but you’ll tape and move the furniture yourself and provide the paint. In this case, you could suggest a budget of €150–200.
Example 2:
You want the Bee to handle your 15 m² bathroom entirely – including buying materials, taping, moving furniture, and minor repairs? Then a budget of around €500–600 is realistic.
💡Not sure what a fair amount is? Just state what the task is worth to you – Bees can make a counteroffer.
