How to become a Hopper and earn from errands near you
No boss, no quota, no uniform — just errands near you, on your own schedule. Here is how becoming a Hopper actually works, and exactly what you keep from each task.
Bisaya: Mahimong Hopper ug kumita sa mga lakaw duol nimo.
Tagalog: Maging Hopper at kumita sa mga lakad malapit sa iyo.
Is errand work for you?
Doing errands for pay is flexible, local gig work — a good fit if you want to earn around a class schedule, between jobs, or on your own hours, and you know your area well. You are not an employee and nobody assigns you shifts: you pick the tasks you want, when you are free. It rewards reliability — the more errands you finish well, the more and bigger ones open up.
What a Hopper does
Hoppers are local people who do errands near them: pabili, pila, bills payment, deliveries, and, as they earn trust, household help, tutoring, repairs and travel help.
How to start
1. Open HazzaHub and choose Become a Hopper. 2. Complete the ID check with a liveness selfie; HazzaHub checks it, usually within a day. 3. Go online and accept the tasks you want. Nobody assigns you work.
What you earn
The customer sets the price, and you keep it minus a 12% Service fee (never on shopping or bill money). Customers pay no fee on top. Good ratings open bigger tasks over time.
Getting paid
E-wallet tasks are paid out to you after the task is done; Cash on hand tasks are paid by the customer at handover.
Safety
Every task has a live map and an SOS button, and rules you agree to before you accept.
