How AdvanceCare Works
AdvanceCare is designed to be simple, fair, and transparent — for both customers and traders. This page explains how the platform works from start to finish, without jargon or hidden mechanics.
For Customers
1. Post a Job Request
Customers submit a job request through AdvanceCare in a few minutes.
You’ll be asked for:
- The type of service needed
- A brief description of the issue or work
- Your general location
- Your preferred timing and budget (where applicable)
Posting a request is free and carries no obligation.
2. Your Details Stay Protected
Your contact details are not publicly visible.
Only traders who actively choose to unlock your request can see your phone number or email. This prevents spam and ensures that only serious providers contact you.
3. Matched Traders View Your Request
Your request is shown only to traders who:
- Operate in the relevant service category
- Cover your location
Unrelated traders never see your request.
4. Traders Contact You Directly
Interested traders unlock your request and contact you directly.
You can:
- Speak to multiple traders
- Compare responses and quotes
- Decide who you want to proceed with
AdvanceCare does not interfere in pricing or negotiations.
For Traders
1. Create a Trader Profile
Traders create a profile and select their service categories and coverage areas.
Your profile helps customers understand:
- What services you provide
- Where you operate
- Your experience and credentials
2. View Relevant Job Requests
You can browse live job requests for free.
You will only see requests that match:
- Your selected trade categories
- Your service area
There is no bidding system and no ranking manipulation.
3. Choose Which Leads to Unlock
When you see a job you want:
- You unlock the lead using credits or a one-off fee
- Full customer contact details are revealed
You decide which opportunities are worth paying for.
4. Contact the Customer and Quote
Once unlocked, you deal directly with the customer.
You:
- Provide your quote
- Agree terms
- Carry out the work
AdvanceCare takes no commission on completed jobs.
What AdvanceCare Does (and Does Not Do)
AdvanceCare:
- Matches customers with relevant traders
- Protects customer contact details
- Provides a fair, pay-per-lead model
AdvanceCare does not:
- Guarantee work
- Employ traders
- Set prices
- Handle payments
Contracts are formed directly between customer and trader.
In Plain English
Customers post jobs.
Traders unlock the ones they want.
You deal directly.
No noise. No pressure. No hidden catches.
