Become an errand guy

Be someone's hands back home.

Thousands of Kenyans abroad need someone they can trust in their home town. If you know your town and people know you, we would like to meet you.

What you get

Fair pay, and your own hours.

  • Paid weekly to M-Pesa

    What you earn lands on your M-Pesa every Friday, on time, every week.

  • Choose your hours

    Accept the errands that fit your day. Morning in Kenya is night-time for most of our clients, so there is steady work early.

  • Ratings that open doors

    Top-rated errand agents are offered regular clients with weekly visits, the steadiest work we have.

How to join

Three steps to your first errand.

  1. 1

    Apply in ten minutes

    Tell us your town, the errands you are good at and two people who can vouch for you.

    About ten minutes

  2. 2

    Get vetted

    ID check, police clearance, an in-person interview and a call to your referees. It is thorough because our clients are trusting you with their families.

    Usually under two weeks

  3. 3

    Shadowed first errands

    Your first five errands are supervised by an experienced errand agent, so you learn the proof standard before you work alone.

    Paid from day one

What you need

Four things, and a good name.

Our clients are trusting you with their parents, their children and their money. So we check properly, and we never charge you for it.

  • A Kenyan national ID

    Over 21, and willing to have it verified against government records.

  • A Certificate of Good Conduct

    Current, from the DCI. We can guide you through applying on eCitizen.

  • A smartphone and M-Pesa

    For updates, photos, receipts and getting paid.

  • Local knowledge

    You know your town, its shops, offices and roads, and people know you.

Do I need a car or motorbike?

No. Many errands are done on foot or by matatu, and transport costs are covered on top of your fee. A motorbike does let you take more errands in a day.

What does it cost to join?

Nothing. We never charge anyone to apply, to be vetted or to receive errands. Anyone asking you for money in our name is not us.

What happens if a client is unhappy?

Our team reviews the proof with you first. If the errand was done as agreed you are paid in full. Repeated problems lead to retraining, then removal.

Ready when you are.

Applying takes about ten minutes and costs nothing.
