Casual hiring should
be casual.

The old system was built for permanent careers. Staafd was built for the way casual work actually happens — fast, flexible, local, and on your terms.

How it works

From zero to confirmed
in under three minutes

1
Sign up
Employers verify their ABN live. Workers verify their visa in real time. Both sides confirmed in under 90 seconds.
2
Filter and swipe
Set your role, visa type, and distance. Swipe through verified profiles. Workers see your employer rating before accepting.
3
Send the offer
Award rate pre-filled and enforced. Payroll summary shown upfront. One tap sends the confirmed shift offer.
4
Confirmed
Both sides confirmed. SMS to both parties. Ratings shared after the shift — building a trust system that compounds.
What makes Staafd different

Built for
trust.

Every feature in Staafd was designed around one question — what would make both sides feel completely safe? The answer became the product.

Employer accountability ratings

Workers see verified employer ratings — pay, safety, and fairness — before accepting any shift. Permanently linked to ABN. Cannot be manipulated.

Australia's first

Real-time visa verification

Worker visa checked against the government VEVO system at signup. Subclass, work rights, and expiry confirmed instantly.

Government verified

Award rate enforcement

The legal minimum is pre-filled on every shift offer. Employers cannot send below the award rate. Fair pay is built into the platform.

Always enforced

Local first matching

Distance weighted 35% in the algorithm. Work is near you today — not 45 minutes away next Thursday. Casual hiring should be local.

Near you always

Payday Super ready

From 1 July 2026 super must be paid same-day as wages. Staafd automates this in Phase 2. No competitor is building this.

July 2026 ready

WHV regional day tracking

Working holiday visa holders track their 88 regional days directly in the app. Visa extension eligibility always visible.

Visa compliance
The app
