It is no secret that, in this day and age, we are constantly online or have access to the internet virtually anywhere. Naturally, with a rising preference to work from home, numerous websites and services have appeared that offer you to earn money entirely online. The gig economy is one of those solutions.
In the gig economy market, people are hired by companies to do some specific task (e.g., write an article or create a video), referred to as ‘gig,’ as opposed to hiring a full-time employee. However, the current gig economy platforms (such as Fiverr) often list tasks that require a certain level of experience and knowledge, favoring those who can genuinely call themselves freelancers in their field. JumpTask, on the other hand, seeks to change this approach.
What is JumpTask?
JumpTask is a gig economy-based service that rewards users for completing microtasks. They are called microtasks because they are not time-consuming and take from a few minutes to a few days to get completed. Also, they do not require any knowledge or expertise, nor do they require any specific skills.
Considering that no skills are required, anyone can join JumpTask and start doing the gigs that the service provides. In comparison to other gig economy marketplaces, JumpTask is more inclusive in this regard. Instead of offering tasks catered to people with some expertise in their field, JumpTask offers tasks that anyone can do.
The idea here is that instead of hiring a freelancer for one big job that would take a long time to complete, JumpTask spreads that one big job into numerous smaller ones that can be completed in a crowdsourcing manner.
To illustrate this, let’s imagine that a company needs a large text translated into another language. They could hire a single freelancer to do all the work or delegate this task to JumpTask users. Each user would have a chance to translate a single sentence from this text and get rewarded for it, while the company would receive their translation way quicker.
How does it work?
JumpTask offers multiple micro task options spread out through different categories called modules. In these modules, users will find a variety of different tasks that they can take. The tasks include filling out surveys, playing some games, installing applications, and many more.
For completing these tasks, users will be rewarded with JumpToken (JMPT) – a cryptocurrency created by JumpTask. Since the whole process is straightforward, JumpTask could become anyone’s first step into cryptocurrency, especially considering that no investments are required. Users receive crypto without buying it.
The payouts for the tasks vary, depending on how difficult they are to complete, how much engagement is required from the user, and how much time it would take to complete them. Needless to say, the longer and/or more complex tasks would net bigger rewards upon completion.
The JMPT you receive can be exchanged into other cryptocurrencies on the PancakeSwap platform or directly via Metamask. Of course, just as with other cryptocurrencies, they can also be exchanged into fiat currencies, though this can not be done directly.
JumpTask can be accessed via any web browser on virtually any operating system, and it also has a dedicated app for Android devices.
Future plans
JumpTask is still a young product, however, looking at the roadmap provided on its website, it is evident that quarter-by-quarter goals are being achieved as promised. Regarding future developments, JumpTask promises to add new earning modules, diversifying the opportunities to earn even further. They also plan to launch an iOS app.
With steady and quick user growth, JumpTask should attract more partners to its platform and provide even more tasks and earning opportunities for end-users. Besides that, since JumpTask offers a different approach to the whole gig economy market, it could indeed revolutionize and transform the core idea of the gig economy itself.
The simplicity of the tasks provided makes them accessible to anyone, and this may be the cause of continued userbase growth. After all, the users do not need to be writers with experience or freelancing semi-professional cameramen to earn from JumpTask. Also, the cryptocurrency aspect of JMPT should attract the attention of both crypto enthusiasts as well as those who are entirely new to the crypto world.
JumpTask is already creating ripples in the gig economy market at around six months old. Their goal of revolutionizing the concept itself may materialize, as the vast majority of gig economy marketplaces use the same model. This overuse caused stagnation in the development of this fantastic concept, and JumpTask may be the one to bring new winds into it.
