Cape Town: Keep 90% of What You Earn — Your Skills Are Worth More

Cape Town

You're Worth More Than You're Getting Paid

Finding decent work in Cape Town right now shouldn't be this hard. Whether you're driving across the City Bowl, walking dogs in Camps Bay, or tidying gardens in Constantia, the skills you already have are worth real money — but too many platforms and employers take the lion's share of what customers actually pay.

Lumo works differently. We're building a marketplace where you do local jobs on your own schedule, and you keep 90% of what the customer pays. Not after fees, not after deductions — 90% is yours. You get paid the same day, you choose which jobs to accept, and you finally earn what your time and effort are actually worth.

Three Ways to Earn on Your Terms

Lumo is looking for 300 independent contractors in Cape Town. Here's the work:

  • Delivery — Move food, groceries and packages across the city by car, bike or scooter. You decide your range and when you're available. Perfect if you know the routes and want flexibility.
  • Pet care — Dog walking, pet sitting and drop-in visits for Cape Town's animal lovers. Ideal if you're reliable, love animals, and want to work close to home.
  • Yard work — Mowing, raking, hedge trimming and garden clean-ups. Great for anyone who's handy outdoors and doesn't mind physical work in the fresh air.

You're not locked into any job type. Accept the work that suits you, skip what doesn't.

A Bonus That Rewards Loyalty

Sign up now and complete your first 100 jobs, and Lumo will pay you a 1,662 ZAR loyalty bonus (about $100 USD). It's our way of saying thank you for building this marketplace with us.

Jobs open as customers in your area post them. The sooner you're approved, the sooner you can start.
