2. Membership and employment

To start, become a member of the cooperative and complete the Employment Datasheet. We'll confirm your data within one business day.

Please note: Membership in the cooperative does not automatically mean you are employed!

Once we have confirmed your membership, your account will be activated and you’ll be able to save your first orders in the Smart Portal.

Learn how to manage order processing in the guide.

When saving orders, you can choose whether your client should confirm the order.

• If you skip client confirmation, we can only employ you for that month if the client has already paid us before the 10th of the month.

• For clients outside the EU, payment must always be received before employment can begin.

After Smart confirms your first order form and your budget shows income, you'll be able to submit an employment request. When requesting employment, choose an employment category based on your average expected income.

We will review and approve your employment request. You will receive your employment contract by email.

• Your first salary will be transferred at the end of your first month of employment.

• Your payslip will also be emailed at the end of the month.
