How to book a caregiver at a flat rate

If you would like to book a caregiver at a flat rate instead of an hourly rate, follow these steps:

1. Go to the caregiver’s profile and click Request a booking
2. Select the type of care you need
3. When asked when you need this care, select Just once or On a recurring basis
   1. If you selected Just once, enter the date, day of the week, and start/end time for the day, then click Continue
   2. If you selected On a recurring basis, enter the date range of your booking requests, the days of the week you need care, and the start and end times per day. Deselect any dates you don’t need care for. Then click Next, confirm dates
   3. Review and click Confirm exact dates
4. Add a job description and review booking details
5. Under Job Details > Payment type, open the drop-down menu, and select Flat rate per shift as the payment frequency
6. Enter flat rate amount $
7. Click Book

Your caregiver will be notified of your requests and can accept or decline the job request(s). Jobs booked via credit will prompt payment for each booking, so you may wish to send requests once or twice a week if you’re paying your caregiver on a recurring schedule.
