Help us grow

Our mission.

We want to become the largest, 100% digital staffing platform for flexi's and students in the EU. If we succeed, we will soon all be living in the Bahamas. At least, that's our dream! The app does it all, but without human forces, our mission is doomed to fail. So let's do it!

Possible? Definitely. Or almost, anyway, because we are still looking for a UI Designer.
