Getting Started with Shiftsmart

Quick Answer: Shiftsmart is an app-based platform where you work as an independent contractor. Download the app, set up your profile, complete onboarding for projects that interest you, and start picking up shifts.

Details: Shiftsmart connects independent contractors (called "partners") with on-demand work. As a partner, you are a 1099 independent contractor who chooses when and where to work. There is no minimum work guarantee, and Shiftsmart makes no guarantees that shifts will be available in your area.

Getting started takes 4 steps: (1) Download the Shiftsmart Partner app and create a profile, (2) Complete onboarding for roles that interest you (may include a background check), (3) Browse and select shifts, (4) Complete shifts and get paid — typically within days.

You must be at least 18 years old, eligible to work in the United States, fluent in English, and have an iPhone or Android phone with the Shiftsmart app. You need a debit card or bank account to receive payment. By creating an account, you agree to the Partner Terms of Service and Privacy Policy.

When to Submit a Ticket: You should not need a ticket to get started. If a technical error prevents you from completing signup, try uninstalling and reinstalling the app first. Only submit a ticket if the error persists.
