Workers bid their own price.

Each worker bids the price they want, and you choose which bid to accept.

Workers keep 100% of their bid.

A worker's bid box: the customer's budget, $150; their price, $140; “You keep 100%”; and a Place bid button.

Anything else? Email support@usemula.com and a person will answer.

Who sets the price?

The worker. Each worker bids the price they want, and you choose which bid to accept.

What does it cost?

Posting a job and bidding are free. Customers pay a 15% service fee at checkout — 0% for the first 90 days after launch — plus NJ sales tax on the labor where it applies. Workers keep 100% of their bid.

Are the workers Mula employees?

No. Workers on Mula are independent. They choose which jobs to bid on, set their own prices, and work for themselves.

Where does my money go when I pay?

Into a hold. It stays there until you confirm the job's done, then it's released to the worker. If the worker doesn't show, you're refunded in full.

What if I forget to confirm?

The payment is released to the worker automatically 72 hours after they mark the job done. Workers never wait on a customer indefinitely.

What kind of jobs can I post?

Small local jobs: furniture assembly, moving help (loading and unloading only), errands and delivery, pet care, IT help, minor handyman jobs, organizing, and extra hands for events. Mula isn't for licensed trades like electrical, plumbing or HVAC.

When can I use it?
