Yada as an Airtasker alternative in Dunedin

If you live in Dunedin or anywhere across the Otago region and are searching for an Airtasker alternative, Yada provides a reliable, transparent, and easy-to-use option. It’s built specifically for New Zealand users who prefer clear, fair, and cost-free connections between clients and specialists.

Unlike many platforms, we charge no lead or success fees. This means specialists can provide more accurate, competitively priced quotes - without passing unnecessary platform costs on to clients. For Dunedin locals, that translates to better value and genuine pricing.

Membership is open to everyone - both individuals and businesses - with no restrictions on the type of work (within standard legal boundaries). So whether you’re a tradie in South Dunedin, a designer in Roslyn, or a homeowner looking for help, you can join easily.

Our trusted two-way rating system helps ensure every completed job builds confidence and reputation for both sides. Specialists with higher ratings can respond more frequently to job opportunities, rewarding those who consistently provide excellent service.

Clients post jobs for free and get responses fast. Specialists reply at no cost through the platform, while communication happens through secure internal chat visible only to those involved in the project. This keeps every interaction safe, clear, and private.

Our mobile-friendly interface is designed with Kiwi efficiency in mind, offering full functionality on smartphones, tablets, and desktops. Whether you’re managing tasks around Dunedin City or across Otago, the platform helps you do it quickly and confidently.

For the text above, please note that:

Users can post as many tasks as they need, however the posted jobs would still need to go through the moderation process before they can appear on the platform;
To protect users from spam, the specialist would not be able to respond to every single job at the platform (their response quotas would depend on the rating tier they are on);
We do not have any subscription fees as of today, but we do plan to introduce different plans at a later stage (however, the core features like free posting, free chat and no lead/success fees would remain);
