What is Quick Pay?
Quick Pay is a feature that allows Traba workers to be paid within a few short minutes of the end of a shift (in some cases may take up to 30 minutes). After enrolling for Quick Pay and adding an eligible payment method to your account, you will be ready to start collecting your earnings after successfully completing a shift.
Quick Pay will be revoked if your account is suspended for any reason. Once your account has been reinstated, you will have to work 3 shifts in a row once again to regain your Quick pay. For those 3 shifts, you will be paid through the standard pay process, and the payments will take 2-3 business days.
How to become eligible for Quick Pay?
Quick Pay is available for any workers that successfully completes 3 perfect shifts in a row. Once you have completed these 3 shifts, your account becomes automatically eligible for Quick pay from your 4th shift onwards. You do still have to enable it from within your profile for Quick Pay to be active.
Note that you may lose eligibility for Quick Pay if you no-show to a shift, cancel it last minute or abandon a shift before completion and other actions that negatively impact the businesses you sign up to work with.
How to enable Quick Pay?
In your Traba app, follow these steps to enable Quick Pay:

3. Click on 'Quick Pay':
4. Toggle on Quick Pay and you're good to go:
Important things to note:
You will be deducted an amount equal to 50 cents or 1.5% of your pay, whichever is greater, in order to get Quick Pay
You will need a payment method that is eligible for Quick Pay. Most debit cards issued by your financial institution are eligible. You can also purchase a "green dot card" from a convenient store like 7-eleven and that will be eligible for Quick Pay as well. Certain bank accounts may be eligible as well - please check the entire list of options here
There are certain shifts on the Traba platform that do not pay out immediately after the shift ends. They require timesheet confirmations before pay is processed. These shifts are tagged with a note that say pay will be processed within 2-3 business days, or weekly. Once timesheets are approved, the pay does get instantly processed, which otherwise could have taken an additional 2 business days to deposit into your account. Screenshot below to show an example of such a shift
Your eligibility for Quick Pay may be affected if you 'no-show' or cancel a shift within 18 hours of its start time, or if you consistently arrive late to your shifts. While these occurrences do not automatically result in the loss of Quick Pay, they could impact your eligibility at any time.
