For hirers
What does GoDig cost me?
Nothing — ever. Posting a request and comparing quotes is free, and we take 0% commission on your hire. The quote you accept is the price you pay, and you pay the company directly — only the company.
How does it work?
Post what you need — the machine, the town, the dates. The nearest vetted companies send you quotes, side by side. Accept the one you want; that confirms the booking, and you get their number to deal direct. No middleman.
What's the difference between wet and dry hire?
Wet = machine + operator (and usually fuel). Dry = machine only, you supply the operator and fuel. Every quote on GoDig states which it is, so you're never guessing.
Does the quote include transport?
Each quote shows what the company includes — many state transport as its own line. If a quote doesn't mention it, agree it directly with the company before the machine moves. No quote shocks: what's written is what's quoted.
How do I know a company is legit?
Companies are vetted when they join — company registration (CIPC) and ID — and their no-show record follows them. Your number is only shared with the company you accept. Golden rule stays: never pay a deposit before you've confirmed the company and seen the machine.
What if my machine isn't in the list?
Post the request anyway and describe the job in the notes — the companies quoting near you know their fleets and will propose the right machine. If nothing fits, WhatsApp us on 083 275 1350 and a human will find it with you.
For plant companies
What does it cost to be on GoDig?
Your first quote is free. After that it's a simple monthly membership — month to month, leave any time — and we take 0% of your hires: the price you quote is the price you're paid. Message us on WhatsApp and we'll set you up.
How long does it take to join?
How do job requests reach me?
Straight into your WhatsApp: a request near your depot arrives with the machine, site and dates, and you tap Quote it or Pass — no forms, no logins. Your console keeps the score: leads in, quotes sent, jobs won.
How do I log into my console?
No passwords. Your private console link comes to your WhatsApp — it shows your leads, quotes, bookings and fleet. Lost it? Message dashboard to our WhatsApp and we'll send it again.
How do I get the ✓ Vetted badge?
It's earned, never bought: company registration (CIPC), ID, and insurance where applicable — reviewed by a human at sign-up. The badge shows on every quote you send, and it's often the reason a hirer picks yours. See what we check →
Why does quoting fast matter?
The request goes to the companies closest to the site, and hirers compare quotes side by side — most pick within hours. First good quote in the stack usually wins. Tap Quote it the moment it lands; it takes under a minute.
