Tradesman's Trust

Service providers! Sick of not being paid immediately or at all for the work you complete?


Customers! Sick of receiving poor-quality trade work for your hard-earned money?

Introducing Tradesman’s Trust! The trade industrys first-ever secure, trust-based job and task payment platform. Where the customer’s money is held by Tradesman’s Trust until a specific job or job’s stage is fully completed. Promoting a fairer and more trusting trade industry.

Tradesman’s Trust’s intentions are simple, like our app. We are revolutionising how trade transactions are instigated and paid for, now and into the future, through our low-fee transactions that ensure service providers and customers receive their money’s worth. 

Co-founder Stephen Bakija lost his best friend “John”, a sole trading Carpenter, to suicide. John’s suicide ended up linking back to a handful of larger jobs that John had completed in the past for builders and customers. These individuals ended up not paying John for his work. Debts took over, prompting John to take his life. This payment problem is a well-known trade industry problem. After the ordeal, Steve took it upon himself to think of an idea to prevent these situations from ever happening to another trade again. This is where Tradesman’s Trust was born.

All service providers on the Tradesman’s Trust app are licensed at the time of their quote being received, so customers who use the Tradesman’s Trust platform will receive quality work done for any required tasks that they have. Worrying about “if” a service provider will complete quality work and is licensed will soon be a thing of the past when using the Tradesman’s Trust app. 

Through the Tradesman’s Trust app, as long as quotes are thorough, service providers can be put to ease knowing that their job or stage payments are sitting safely in our hands for when completion and payment time come around! Tradies, it’s time to forget your invoice insurance! We have you covered.

With an inbuilt trade directory for customers that provides Tradesman’s Trust service providers with fresh job leads, our unique performance reviewing system and a simple app layout, your trade experience expectations will be forever changed. Tradesman’s Trust is the future of trade transactions and we encourage you to try us out! It’s free to join!
