“I like using Solo to see the difference between what others make compared to what I make plus the average of what each app is throughout the day. It is also nice being able to make a little extra money on top of what I am making through each app.”

FAQS

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Solo Pay Guarantee Program?



‍The Pay Guarantee program provides a daily income guarantee to users who use Solo’s Smart Schedule to plan their app based work schedule. If you earn less than what Solo predicted on a daily basis, we will pay you the difference at the end of the week. Soloprenuers can guarantee their daily pay using Solo's credit system.

What do I need to do to qualify for the Pay Guarantee Program?

1. Head to the Apple or Google Play Store and download the app.

2. Follow the prompts to create an account.

3. Link your corresponding “app based” or “gig work” accounts (i.e. Uber, Lyft, Doordash, Grubhub, Ubereats, Shipt, Instacart, Amazon Flex, GoPuff, etc) and maintain that connection when participating in the Solo Pay Guarantee program.

4. Opt in and keep Solo’s location tracking feature on while working the scheduled time blocks and keep the app on in the background.

5. Use the Solo Pay Prediction feature to add hourly work blocks and save your schedule.

6. Be online, accepting the majority of requests and completing (according to the terms and conditions of the gig company) the corresponding jobs on those selected gig company accounts during the hours scheduled via the Solo Pay Prediction feature. See map above for the list of cities this feature is available in.

7. Average at least one job for the hours scheduled/guaranteed (jobs are defined as trips, deliveries, orders or other earnings activities)and be online/working the majority of the hour (depending on job platform).

8. Link a payment method (Venmo or Paypal) via the Solo app to facilitate the pay out of any applicable reimbursement.

Why do I need to set my schedule?

The Smart Schedule tool shows you the optimal earnings schedule for your day. Saving your selected job schedule allows us to know which job you plan to work (and the corresponding predicted earnings to attribute to your daily pay guarantee).

Does this cost anything?

Pro plan users have unlimited access to the Smart Schedule in their city. Pro plan users also receive 10 free credits (one credit = one hour of work) to guarantee their pay each month as a part of their subscription. To guarantee more than 10 hours, you can purchase additional credits for $.25. If you purchase credits in bulk, you can save up to 25%, bringing the price to $.19/credit. You can also find more information in our recent blog post or on our pricing page.

Where does this data come from and how do you predict hourly earnings?

We are able to provide earnings predictions for major gig jobs across each hour and day of the week by using collective data and insights from the Solo community. This real, community based data informs Solo’s predictive algorithm, which shows your predicted earnings by job and hour. Your anonymized work information contributes to the community insights; however, your personal information is never available to anyone else. 

Why are you offering this?

Our overarching goal is to provide income stability for workers in the gig space by eliminating the downside risk associated with flexible work and variable pay. We believe this can be accomplished by providing you with better earnings data that solves the problem of where, when and what job you should work to hit your income goals. We want to help you, and others, stabilize earnings and optimize your time.

How are payouts calculated?

Payouts are calculated by taking the difference between your total daily guaranteed value that you've saved in the Solo app and your actual earned income. If you work the full hour, completing at least one trip per hour, and are driving within the coverage zone, you would be eligible for the full value of the daily guarantee. Please note that Solo does not use online time to calculate time worked—Solo uses your actual time worked plus buffers for waiting time in between trips to calculate your time worked within a Pay Guarantee hour.

For example, if you guarantee an income floor of $10 over four hours within one day, and you earn a total of $35 while following the requirements listed in-app, you would be owed $5. If you earned $45, you would not be owed a payout—you keep the upside!

When do I get paid?

Payouts occur once weekly. While your earnings are assured on a daily basis, you will be able to access any accrued amounts for the prior week (Monday to Sunday) on the following Tuesday. For example, if you earn five dollars less than Solo’s predictions for each of the three days you schedule and work in a given week, you will accrue a daily amount of $15 for the week. Payouts will occur on Tuesdays during the day. 

Are Pay Guarantee payouts considered taxable income?

No, you do not have to report any payouts resulting from the Solo Pay Guarantee program when filing your taxes. Any Pay Guarantee payouts are classified as a warranty when Solo’s Pay Predictions are above the amount you earn (assuming you meet the program requirements), which are not taxable income.

What if I have questions or feedback?

Great—we’re happy to help. Feedback is important and we are always seeking to improve our service. Please reach out to us at info@worksolo.com and we’ll get back to you as soon as possible.
