INERK

INERK is a Nigerian job marketplace where employers post jobs and workers apply, connect, and negotiate pay in real time. It uses escrow protection to secure payments until work is completed, with OTP verification confirming job completion. Funds are released to the worker's wallet after both parties confirm completion, or automatically after the review period if the employer does not respond.

The platform operates across Nigeria, specifically mentioning locations from Lagos to Abuja. It serves as a secure job marketplace where users can connect with workers and employers to negotiate pay and transact safely with escrow protection.

To get started, users can post a job with a budget, find workers, or browse jobs by category, location, and budget. Employers and workers connect directly through the platform to negotiate price, scope, and timeline in real time without a middleman.

The process begins when an employer posts a job and workers apply. Both parties negotiate pay directly in real-time chat until they agree on a price, after which funds are locked in escrow before work starts.

Every job generates a unique 4-digit code that the employer sees. The worker must enter the matching code to confirm the job is done, eliminating disputes about whether the work was actually completed.

Users can fund their wallet via Paystack and pay for jobs from their wallet balance. They can also withdraw their earnings to their Nigerian bank account anytime through the wallet system.

INERK offers a premium plan for ₦10,000/month which includes a 0% commission on the user's portion of every transaction, a premium badge, 7-day fast clearing, and priority support.

The platform features squads where leaders manage members and distribute payments, with escrow holding funds for the whole squad. It also offers tutoring and chat jobs with a different payment flow based on hourly or duration-based billing for knowledge-based work.

According to the website, the escrow system ensures money never goes directly to anyone until the job is verified complete. Funds are locked when a negotiation is accepted, and the payer is debited only when the negotiation is accepted.

The business states it is built for Nigerian freelance work, focusing on how Nigerians actually work by negotiating, verifying, and getting paid safely within one platform.
