Best Practices Before Approving a Completed Booking
What to check before approving completed work to ensure you get what you paid for.
Step-by-Step Guide
Inspect Thoroughly
Review the completed work carefully. Check every aspect against what was agreed in the service package description. Don't rush the approval.
Test If Applicable
If the service involves repairs, installations, or deliverables, test them before approving. For example, turn on a repaired appliance or review a delivered document.
Communicate Concerns First
If you notice issues, message the Taskmaster through the platform before approving. Give them a chance to address your concerns.
Approve or Report
If satisfied, approve to release payment. If not, file a Report an Issue with photos and evidence. Don't approve and then complain — approval is final.
Helpful Tips
- Take photos of the completed work before approving — they serve as documentation.
- Approval releases payment immediately — there's no undo.
