Helping Others
Fulfilling requests is the heart of Karmyq. When you help a neighbor, you earn karma and build trust.

Finding Requests
The Community Feed — Your main feed shows open requests, sorted by your preferences and trust connections.
Your Preferences — Set which request types you're interested in and the feed prioritizes those.
The Curated Feed — Surfaces requests that match your skills, location, and past activity.
Accepting a Request
- Click on a request to see full details
- Check the description, location, timing, and effort involved
- Click Accept Request if you can help
- You'll be connected to the requester to coordinate details
During the Help
Coordinate via Karmyq messages or however you've agreed. Be on time. If something comes up and you can't follow through, let them know early and cancel the acceptance so someone else can step in.
Your reliability is part of your reputation.
Completing the Request
After the help is done:
- The requester marks it as Fulfilled
- Karma transfers from their balance to yours
- Your trust score is updated
What Makes a Good Helper
- Read the full request before accepting — know what you're agreeing to
- Don't over-commit — help fewer people well than accept everything and complete nothing
- Communicate — if anything changes, tell the requester
- Show up — reliability is your most important reputation factor
