Yada as a Builderscrack alternative in Otago
For Otago residents and tradies seeking a fairer, simpler platform than Builderscrack, our New Zealand-built system provides full access with zero fees. Whether you’re based in Dunedin, Cromwell, or Wanaka, you can connect efficiently without the cost of lead or success fees.
We welcome solo tradies, partnerships, and established companies from any trade or service field - electricians, plumbers, landscapers, painters, and more - all working together in one transparent space.
Trust is the cornerstone of our community. Through the platform’s two-way rating system, both clients and tradies review every completed job. Higher ratings increase daily response limits, motivating specialists to keep service standards high.
Posting jobs is completely free, and tradies can respond to as many listings as their rating allows. Communication is done through a private, secure chat system, keeping conversations professional and safe for all parties involved.
Built specifically for New Zealand conditions, this lightweight and mobile-friendly design ensures easy use on phones, tablets, or desktops. You can manage quotes, messages, and listings smoothly from anywhere in Otago.
Our gig platform delivers a transparent and fair Builderscrack alternative, combining modern technology with Kiwi practicality and affordability.
Frequently asked questions
- 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);
