    All FAQs

    Thungo is built for service providers — individuals and registered contractor businesses such as solar installers, electricians, plumbers, and builders — and for clients who hire them. Providers can offer contracting, handyman work, material sales, or equipment rental from one account. Clients post jobs, review quotes, and follow projects on the same system.

    Create your account, then choose Client or Service Provider. Service providers next say whether they work as an individual or a business, and what they offer (handyman, contracting, materials, or equipment). All you need is a working email address. Staff do not sign up on their own — they join through an employer invitation. Suppliers are onboarded by our team as integrated partners.

    Service providers get free early access to every feature until launch. At launch you choose between the Starter, Professional, and Business plans. Final prices are being finalised and will be published on the pricing page before launch.
