On the Helpling platform, you can choose which types of customer requests you’d like to receive: one-time, weekly, or bi-weekly. With the right settings, you'll only be visible to customers whose requests match your preferences – helping you work more efficiently and reliably.

Why is it important to set my preferred offer types?

Your offer type preferences determine whether you are shown to customers in the booking channel. If your availability and offer settings match a customer’s request, your profile will appear as a recommended service provider.

🔔 Important: Only accept requests you can actually fulfil. This helps avoid unnecessary cancellations and possible cancellation fees. To find out how a cancellation can affect your personal reliability score, click here.
