Honest reads on platforms, pricing, and how to start. Written for Malaysians who want to earn online.
Zero commission, both sides. Sellers keep 100% of what they earn; buyers pay no platform fee. Payment goes directly between you and the seller via DuitNow, bank transfer, Touch 'n Go, or cash. LokalGig never touches the money.
Search by service ("plumber KL", "kuih raya Shah Alam") or browse by category and state. Tap any gig to message the seller directly on WhatsApp — no app sign-up needed to make contact. LokalGig covers all 16 Malaysian states.
Three differences. (1) Zero commission — Fiverr and Upwork take 10–20% per transaction; LokalGig takes 0%. (2) WhatsApp-direct contact — no in-app messaging gates you behind. (3) Built specifically for first-time Malaysian gig earners, with bilingual Bahasa Melayu + English support and an AI listing helper. Mudah and Carousell are general classifieds for goods; LokalGig is a focused launchpad for service-based gig work.
One-time payment. Includes 1 year hosting + 10 AI edits.
