What happened to MyTask?
MyTask was a peer-to-peer marketplace in New Zealand that ceased operations in 2020. It was founded by an entrepreneur who had previously founded a similar marketplace called Kwota . MyTask was backed by Yellow Pages at a valuation of $6 million and 50% equity sharing.
MyTask performed well in its first year, acquiring approximately 50,000 users. However, it stopped marketing as the COVID-19 pandemic began in early 2020. It continued to operate, but in late 2020, it suddenly stopped performing. Its website and app stopped working, and the company went silent.
There are a few possible explanations for MyTask's failure. One possibility is that giving away 50% of its equity led to management issues. Another possibility is that the company spent too much money on marketing and not enough on developing its product. The website was reportedly basic and lacked good content, and the company did not introduce many new features during its two years of operation.
Whatever the reason for its failure, MyTask's demise is a reminder of the challenges faced by startups in the peer-to-peer marketplace space. It is important for these companies, including Ezy Peazy, to have a strong product and a clear plan for monetisation in order to be successful.
Feature comparison
Ezy Peazy became a major competitor & alternative to MyTask NZ as both are marketplaces that allow you to outsource the jobs that you are not confident with or do not feel like doing.
Post Your Task For Free
Ezy Peazy has a web & mobile app similar to the MyTask app in NZ and enables you to post your task for free. Posted tasks are visible to interested workers AKA Taskers who have the required skills & time and are keen to help you. Taskers express their interest by making an offer on your task. You are free to check their profile and past reviews to make your choice.
Pay When The Task Completes
Like My Task NZ, once you choose the right tasker for your job, you assign it. Your payment is held securely with Ezy Peazy & released only once the job is done satisfactorily.
Secure & Safe Payments
Ezy Peazy uses a leading third-party payment provider with the best quality security measures in place to allow us to keep your credentials secure and safe.
Part of A Community
Ezy Peazy became better than My Task because we are not just a marketplace but rather a community-oriented initiative. We strongly feel that our community needs an easy to use platform for daily chores to spend our time on more productive & fulfilling things in our lives. We continuously work behind the scenes to make it even more user-friendly and become a most valuable asset to our fellow kiwis with the motive of perfection.

great work. Very friendly and easy to deal with
Sam reviewed Pierre
Pierre is the best! He did an amazing job, which was no simple task: picking up our new tramp, dismantling it, transporting it to our house, and then assembling it. I highly recommend him to everyone!
Susan reviewed Anthony
Solutions focussed. Found an excellent solution to the washing line issue. Highly recommend.
Kristal reviewed Melwin
Happy with overall service from Melvin and will be using him with future jobs that need to be done ! Highly recommend!!!! Easy to talk too .
Kimberly reviewed Melwin
Would have been good to assess all work needing to be completed first and agree on materials up front vs. opening several packets of hanging items that I then needed to pay for and weren't all used/have no further use for. Also didn't measure the size required for hanging the mirror before putting the screw into the wall and realising it was too big. Overall, job done.
