Frequently asked questions

Can I find jobs in my area through Helferei and offer my support?

We are currently active in Berlin, Cologne, Leipzig, and Munich, where we offer everyone an easy way to earn some extra cash. We’ll be the first to keep you updated on our activities in other German cities through our newsletter. Subscribe now!

Do I need any specific tools to support other people through Helferei ?

Not necessarily – it depends on the specific service. For cleaning services, our clients usually provide all the necessary supplies. For more complex services, such as skilled trades, you should discuss the necessary tools with your clients before each job. Work together to determine what they have on-site and what you should bring. If something is missing, you’re welcome to help your clients procure it – of course, for a fee.
Simply check the specific requirements on the respective service pages here on our website.

What are the prerequisites to take part in Helferei ?

The helpers who offer services through us have a tax ID number and can therefore issue invoices. This means that a work permit for self-employment in Germany and being of legal age are formal requirements. We are currently working with partners to soon be able to assist you with the formalities using artificial intelligence.
In addition to the formal requirements, we value a friendly, respectful, and above all service-oriented approach to interacting with clients.
Anyone who has the desire and the skills to support others can join us. That’s why we connect a wide variety of profiles. Create your profile today – we look forward to getting to know you and working together!
