Verified professionals, escrow-protected work, one honest record of every job
RogueWorker is a service marketplace built for Lagos and the wider Nigerian market. It connects clients who need a job done — a plumbing repair, a tow after a breakdown, a licensed electrician, a driver for the week, a vehicle inspection — with independent professionals who have been checked for that specific trade. Instead of scrolling a directory and hoping, a client describes the problem in their own words, sees who is genuinely nearby and available, compares agreed prices, and books.
The platform is built for two audiences at once. Clients — households, landlords, small businesses and fleet owners — get a professional whose identity and credentials have been reviewed, a fixed price agreed before work begins, live tracking on the day, before-and-after photographic proof where the trade requires it, and a payment that stays in escrow until they sign the job off. Professionals get a fair marketplace: no listing fee to appear, clear requirements for what verification their trade needs, a reliability score built from the jobs they actually complete rather than from star ratings alone, and a payout record they can point to.
RogueWorker is designed, built and operated by its own small product team, working directly with the trades it serves. Every feature — verification workflows, escrow, dispute mediation, quotations, invoices and receipts — exists to make one thing true: that both sides of a job can see the same facts, before and after the work is done.
A live service radar, not a directory
Tell us the job in plain words and we match you with verified professionals who are actually available near you, with an agreed price and arrival window before anyone sets out.
Escrow on every booking
Your payment is held by the platform, not handed over up front. The professional is paid when you confirm the work is finished, and refunds run through the same record.
Verification that matches the trade
Each profession carries its own checks — identity, licences, qualifications, insurance — so a regulated job is only offered to someone whose documents support it.
Disputes with a real outcome
If something goes wrong, both sides give their account, evidence is reviewed, and the held funds are released, partly refunded or fully refunded on the record.
