Fixgent vs Taskrabbit

Updated October 23, 2026 · By the Fixgent team

Short answer

Both let you book a Tasker by the hour for everyday jobs. Taskrabbit is established and bookable today in dozens of Canadian cities. Fixgent is new in Canada: it is signing up Taskers now and will open bookings later, with a 10% customer service fee (5% when you rebook someone) and Taskers keeping 100% of their rate during launch.

Taskrabbit is the practical choice today: it is live across many Canadian cities. Fixgent isn't taking bookings in Canada yet.

Why Fixgent is coming to Canada

Fixgent started in Nigeria as a booking platform for home services and is opening in Canada for everyday jobs: assembly, moving help, cleaning, TV mounting, handyman work and more. Pricing is simple: the Tasker's hourly rate plus a service fee you see before you confirm, and a lower fee when you rebook someone you liked.

If you do this kind of work, now is a good time to join: early Taskers set up their profiles before bookings open and keep 100% of their rate during launch. Become a Tasker.

Questions people ask

When will Fixgent open bookings in Canada?

There is no date yet. Join the waitlist and we'll email you when bookings open in your province.

Does Fixgent offer licensed trades in Canada?

No. Electrical, plumbing, gas and HVAC work need licensed contractors in Canadian provinces, so they aren't on Fixgent in Canada.

Can I use both?

Yes. Many Taskers work on more than one platform; check each platform's terms.
