About

Built for gig workers who care about net pay

The Gig Worker Guide publishes independent reviews of banking, mileage, tax, and invoicing tools used by DoorDash, Uber, Instacart, Etsy, and freelance 1099 workers. We focus on fees, tax set-asides, and real take-home math — not platform hype.

Editorial lead

Editorial team, The Gig Worker Guide. We maintain product listings, guides, and calculators for U.S. gig and freelance workers. Tax and legal topics are educational and not personalized advice — confirm figures with the IRS, your state, or a qualified preparer.

How we stay current

  1. Merchant and partner pages are crawled on a schedule for pricing and promo signals.
  2. Editorial pros, cons, FAQs, and recommendations are human-reviewed before publish.
  3. Guides cite primary sources (IRS rates, merchant docs) and show last-updated dates.
