"EL CONNECT represents a transformative solution in the recruitment landscape, fostering inclusivity and efficiency in job placement for both individuals and businesses."

One of my proudest achievements at EL CONNECT is the remarkable growth and trust users have placed in our brand and app. As a daily paid job platform, we provide users with the unique benefit of receiving their pay right after they have completed their shift, directly into their in-app wallet. What's truly touching is that many users choose to leave substantial sums of money in their wallet, demonstrating a deep level of trust in our app's legitimacy and operations.

EL CONNECT has also taken significant steps to enhance security and brand trust by integrating Singapore's trusted government verification platform, Singpass. This integration adds an extra layer of security and credibility to our platform, reassuring users about the legitimacy of our services.

In addition, EL CONNECT is expanding user acceptance to include the WorkPass group, ensuring that individuals from all walks of life have access to daily paid job opportunities. This inclusivity underscores our commitment to providing meaningful employment regardless of background or circumstances. Furthermore, we are actively reaching out to companies across various industries who are seeking employees or part-timers for entry-level positions suitable for blue-collar workers. By broadening our job offerings, we aim to ensure that our large user base has access to diverse job opportunities that match their skills and preferences.”
