Monthly Usage Limits

Usage Limits on Helpful Folks

As a basic member, you have a limited monthly allowance for certain actions. This ensures the platform remains fair and high-quality for everyone.

How Do Limits Work?

Each month, you automatically receive a fixed allowance. Every action — such as applying for a job — uses one unit of that allowance.

Current Limits for Basic Members

As a Provider

  • 5 applications per month to jobs
  • 3 contact request per month

As a Customer

  • 3 applications to read per month (view full applicant profiles)
  • 5 contact request per month

What About Premium?

With a premium membership, all limits are removed — you can send unlimited applications, make unlimited contacts, and read all applicant profiles.

Allowance in Your Dashboard

In your dashboard, you can always see:

  • Your current allowance and usage
  • How many actions you can still perform this month
  • When the allowance resets (on the 1st of each month)

Tips for Basic Members

Since your allowance is limited, use it wisely:

  • Only apply to jobs that truly match your profile.
  • Invest time in a compelling application.
  • Optimize your profile so customers come to you directly.
