A marketplace where businesses find people to help them grow, and people find paid opportunities that fit their skills. It starts in Jamaica and is built to grow beyond it.
No. One Earn and Build account can do both. Start with whichever you need, and switch on the other mode from your dashboard at any time. Your profile, messages and history stay in one place.
Yes. Choose “Continue with Google” on the sign-up or log-in page. If you already have an account with the same verified email, we link them instead of creating a duplicate.
Earning
Publish your profile. It gets a public link (earnandbuild.com/u/your-name) and appears in Find Talent searches for your skills, categories and location.
No. A name, headline and a few skills are enough to publish. Add work samples, services and experience whenever you're ready.
Hiring
Post an opportunity and review applications, or find someone in Find Talent and invite them to an opportunity. When you accept someone, the agreed scope, price and deadline are recorded for both of you.
Payments
Businesses pay through PayPal, with a PayPal account or a debit/credit card where PayPal offers it. The agreed price goes straight to the person's own PayPal account, and Earn and Build's service fee is added on top. Earn and Build never holds the money. Card and PayPal details stay with PayPal. Refunds and disputes go through PayPal.
No. Payments for work found on Earn and Build must go through Earn and Build. Paying or asking for payment outside the site removes the protection for both sides and can lead to account removal.
You can post and price work in Jamaican dollars (JMD) or US dollars (USD). To pay online, the agreed price must be in USD, because PayPal doesn't take JMD. We never convert amounts, and budget filters compare within the currency you choose.
Trust & safety
Only what you choose: name, headline, bio, skills, services, portfolio, and optionally your location and rates. Your email, password, messages and payment details are never public. You can unpublish any time.
Reviews can only be left by the two people involved in completed work on Earn and Build, once per engagement.
