FAQ
Common questions from early visitors.
Quick answers for visitors who want to understand how SideGig works.
How is SideGig different from Thumbtack?
SideGig uses mutual interest instead of one-way lead forms, so both sides choose each other before messaging begins.
What does mutual matching mean?
Workers and customers each express interest. A conversation unlocks only when both sides say yes.
Can I verify my insurance?
Yes. The marketplace is designed around trust markers like insurance, licensing, and background checks.
Can homeowners use SideGig?
Absolutely. SideGig supports both hiring users and workers, and an account can be useful in both roles.
How do background checks work?
The public landing page is focused on interest capture. Verification flows will connect to marketplace tooling as the product expands.
Is SideGig free?
The waitlist is free. Additional product tiers can roll out as the marketplace grows.
