How to register and list as a Plumber on Destora

Open the Destora app. On the first screen tap GET STARTED.

Type your e-mail address and tap Continue.

We e-mail you a 6-digit code. Open your e-mail, find the code, type it in the box and tap Verify and continue.

The app asks how you want to use Destora. Tap Offer services and earn.

("Hire services" is for customers. You can switch any time from the top of the app.)

On Register Your Service you can use the Destora assistant, or fill the form yourself. We suggest the form because you see everything. Tap Fill Out Manual Form.

Tap Category and choose Housekeeper & Maintenance. Then tap Service Type and choose Plumber.

The pictures show an example (a Plumber being registered). On your phone you choose Housekeeper & Maintenance and Plumber.

Tap Address. Allow location if the phone asks. A map opens. Move the pin to the exact place where you work from or live (you can also search for the address at the top). Then tap Confirm & proceed.

Customers near this place will find you, so the pin must be right.

Check the three fields (category, service type, address). Then tap Register & List Service.

You will see Listing saved! This means your listing was created. It is not live yet. Tap Return to Home.

Tap the Listings tab. Your new listing is there. You will see a yellow box: Complete your one-time KYC to make your listing visible to customers. Tap Open KYC.

You can also reach it from Account > KYC Verification.

Under Government ID choose which document you will give (PAN or Driving licence), then tap Upload ID.

A box explains what Destora does with your document. Read it, tick the box, then tap Agree and continue.

In short: we use your document only to check who you are. We never ask for Aadhaar. Photos are stored encrypted and deleted within 7 days after the decision.

The camera opens (or choose from gallery). Fit your document inside the rectangle, make sure it is sharp, and take the picture. Do the same for the other side if the app asks.

Live selfie: for your service the selfie is optional. Tap Take selfie, look at the camera in good light, no cap or sunglasses.

Face match means a Destora reviewer compares your selfie with the photo on your ID. It happens automatically after you add both.

Open Account. The tile KYC Verification shows Verified in green when you are done.

Go to the Listings tab. You see your listing card with a switch (Inactive) and four buttons:

• Availability - your hours
• Edit listing - pricing and details
• Work items & packages - what you sell

Tap the picture or the name to open Listing details.

At the top of Listing details is the box Before customers can see this listing. Each line is one step. The sign in front of it tells you where you are:

Tap Edit listing. Fill the Basics:

Tap Save changes at the bottom when done.

Scroll down to Pricing. All prices are in rupees.

Scroll down to Location and coverage. Your address is already filled.

Coverage radius * is how far from your address you will go (1 to 50 km). Customers outside this circle cannot book you.

Service details are the details of your service, such as the ones in Your service. Fields with a star * must be filled. Then tap Save changes.

Go back and tap Availability.

Booking mode has two choices:

• ASAP only - you accept jobs immediately. Customers can book you right now.
• Custom hours - you work on a schedule. Customers book specific days and hours.

For Custom hours, tap the days you work (they turn green), set the Start time and End time, and tap Save availability.

Days off: tap Add day off to block a holiday so nobody can book you.

Open Work items & packages and tap Manage listing photos. Add one clear photo of your own work or service. Destora checks every photo before customers see it.

On your listing card tap Work items & packages. You see three buttons: Add work item, Create package and Manage listing photos.

Tap Add work item and fill the form. Then tap Save Work Item.

A red box means something is missing or wrong, and nothing is saved until you fix it. For example, Enter a valid price means the price is empty or 0. Fix the red field and tap Save again.

After saving, the item shows In review and Waiting for Destora review, hidden from customers. This is normal. Add as many items as you want. You can also tap Images under an item to add its photo.

When every required step is green or orange (nothing is red), the green button Send for review appears at the bottom of the checklist. Tap it.

If you tap it too early, the app tells you which steps are still missing. Finish them first.

The listing now says Destora is reviewing your listing. You will be told here and by e-mail and notification if anything needs to change. You do not need to do anything. You can still use the app.

On the Dashboard, under Needs attention, you see Destora asked for changes with the message. Tap it. You also get an e-mail.

Open Listing details. The steps Destora commented on show a red triangle and Destora's words in red. Read each one carefully.

Under each red step tap Fix this. The right screen opens. Make the change Destora asked for and tap Save changes. For a photo, upload a new one.

When all red triangles are gone, tap Send for review again. Your old comments are cleared when you send. Destora checks again, usually faster the second time.

When Destora approves your listing, the status changes to green ACTIVE and you see Your listing is live. You also get a notification and an e-mail.

On the Listings tab, the listing card has a switch. ON (green) means customers can find you. OFF hides you.

Need a break or an item is not available today? You can switch a work item or a package off without deleting it. It stays approved, but customers do not see it. Switch it back on any time.

To pause everything, switch the listing switch OFF on the Listings tab.
