AnyworkX Productivity App to Enhance Online Marketplace
Emma Okonji
AnyworkX, a subsidiary of X-Agon Digital Solutions Limited has launched the AnyworkX productivity app, designed as an online platform that connects service providers and customers to an online marketplace.
Speaking during the launch, Executive Director, Product and Strategy, X-Agon Digital Solutions Limited, Mr. Bolaji Bayoi-Tijani, emphasised that the app is not a marketplace of commodities, but services, adding that the app currently has over 200 different categories of services that are verified and registered on it, with plans to extend the list as more services emerge.
According to him, “One key feature of AnyworkX is that both service providers and customers are verified before they can transact business on the app. This is to ensure that we significantly eliminate identity fraud and create a safe and secure platform for the users, and there are up to five stages of verification.”
He explained that a lot of people often struggle to get service providers especially when it comes to urgent and emergency needs such as fixing of a leaking pipe or attending to electrical fault at home, or even to an urgent need for legal representation, or getting medical attention among others. He said such needs could be addressed on the AnyworkX platform where trusted and verified professional artisans are registered to render services in a borderless marketplace.
Explaining how AnyworkX app works for new users, Bayoi-Tijani said new users could download the app from the Google play store and Apple store and follow the registration process. According to him, “The registration is user friendly. There are two versions of the app. One is AnyworkX vendor and the other is AnyworkX customer. AnyworkX vendor is for service providers while AnyworkX customer is for customers who patronise any of the over 200 types of services on the app at one time or the other.”
He said once the customer and vendor are egistered and verified on the app, service providers would be expected to turn on their availability whenever they are available to take job orders. He added that all job negotiations and financial settlements would be done through the app.
