We offer payment via iDeal or credit card. You can also pay via bank transfer. Please note that payment processing takes a little longer with manual transfers.

When will the money be debited from my account?

You can pay once the job is finished. The costs will be charged to your credit card within one business day. If you paid via iDEAL, the payment is processed immediately.

The payment doesn't seem to have gone through, what now?

Superhelpers and quality

How do I know if my Superhelper is reliable?

Beep for Help selects Superhelpers with care. All our Superhelpers are screened in advance. They are also required to provide a VOG (Certificate of Good Conduct). Once that is approved, the Superhelper can begin their training. After successfully completing it, the Superhelper is ready to get to work.

What can I do with a rating?

You can rate your Superhelpers in the app using a star system. The system will try to take your preferred Superhelpers into account for your next help request.

Can I save Superhelpers as favorites?

Yes, you can do that in the app! You can easily mark a Superhelper as a favorite on their profile. This makes it easy to find your favorite helper(s) again when you request help in the future.
