SweepSouth
R1500–6000
per month
SweepSouth is South Africa's largest home cleaning gig platform. You sign up as a SweepStar (cleaner), get matched with homeowners, and earn R30-50+ per hour for cleaning jobs. It's physical work but pays significantly more than surveys or micro-tasks.
Mr D Food
R3500–12000
per month
Mr D Food is South Africa's largest food and grocery delivery platform, owned by the Takealot Group. Drivers (called Driver Partners) use their own motorbike or car to fulfil delivery orders placed through the Mr D app. Pay is per delivery plus tips, with weekly payouts directly to your bank account.
M4Jam (Money for Jam)
R200–1500
per month
M4Jam is a South African mobile micro-jobs platform owned by Brandseye. You complete small tasks like store audits, mystery shopping, product surveys, and photo verification using your phone. Tasks are location-based, so availability depends on where you live.
Bolt Food
R0–0
per month
Bolt Food shut down its South African operations on 8 December 2023 and no longer operates anywhere in SA. It closed both its South African and Nigerian food-delivery businesses that month, with reporting citing an uncompetitive local market. This page is kept for reference only — there is no active Bolt Food courier programme in South Africa. If you want food-delivery courier work in SA, Mr D and Uber Eats are the realistic options.
