Singapore’s retail, F&B, and events industries run on momentum. From the year-end shopping rush to large-scale expos and banquets, peak seasons can bring sudden spikes in customer demand. For employers, this means one challenge: How to grow manpower rapidly?
Traditional hiring methods, while effective for long-term roles, often struggle in these high-pressure situations. Posting job ads, conducting interviews, and scheduling new staff to each outlet; this takes time that employers simply don’t have when the peak seasons are around the corner. This is where giggers, or flexible workers, step in as the smart choice for seasonal staffing.
Agility When It Matters Most
The biggest advantage of giggers is agility. Employers can scale their workforce up or down based on demand, without committing to long-term contracts. If a retail chain anticipates higher foot traffic during festive sales, or an events company requires extra crew for a one-off conference, gig workers can be quickly brought in to cover specific shifts — even if it’s just for a few hours.
This not only helps businesses manage costs more effectively but also ensures full-time staff aren’t overworked. Instead of overstretching current teams, employers can balance workloads by bringing in extra gig support when it’s needed most.
Experience You Can Rely On
Another strength that gig workers bring is varied experience. Many giggers have worked across different events, restaurants, or retail outlets, making them highly adaptable.They’re quick to adapt to new environments and get up to speed fast, which often means minimal training is needed.
For example, a gigger who has previously worked as banquet staff or an event usher can easily apply that knowledge in a new event setting. Their familiarity with industry norms, customer service, or even crowd management allows them to contribute effectively from day one. This adaptability makes giggers more than just “extra hands”, they’re professionals who can keep operations running smoothly during busy periods.
Commitment and Reliability
Some employers worry about reliability when it comes to seasonal hires, but today’s giggers are not only passersby. Many rely on gig work as a consistent source of income and approach it with professionalism. Because they often juggle multiple short-term roles, giggers are motivated to build good reputations, show up on time, and deliver quality work. On FastGig, this reliability is strengthened through a rewards system that actively recognises giggers to be punctual, complete assignments well, and secure repeat bookings, giving employers the confidence of a dependable workforce every time.
This professionalism has shifted the perception of gig work from being temporary “filler” jobs to a respected form of flexible employment. Employers who treat giggers well often see the same loyalty and dependability they expect from long-term hires.
FastGig: Making Gigger Hiring Simple
Seasonal peaks and big events move fast, and employers need workers who can hit the ground running. The real challenge isn’t just finding reliable giggers, but doing it quickly to keep operations smooth. That’s where FastGig comes in.
With access to more than 85,000 giggers, many of whom already have experience in retail, F&B, and events, FastGig makes it easy to fill shifts at short notice. The platform doesn’t just connect you to workers; it also simplifies the process with built-in scheduling, geo-location attendance tracking, and an integrated payroll system that pays workers once the job is done.
Employers can take the self-serve route with FastGig Business, or hand things over completely with FastGig Concierge, which manages sourcing, reminders, and even last-minute replacements. Either way, businesses save time, cut hiring costs by as much as 85 percent compared to traditional agencies, and can focus on running their events or outlets instead of chasing manpower.
The Smarter Way Forward
Seasonal peaks and event surges aren’t going away but scrambling for manpower doesn’t have to be part of the process. By hiring giggers, employers gain agility, cost-efficiency, and access to a workforce that’s adaptable, reliable, and ready to deliver.
With the right approach, and the right platform like FastGig, businesses can turn short-term hiring challenges into smooth, scalable solutions.
When the next festive rush or big event comes around, giggers aren’t just an option, they're your smartest manpower fulfilment advantage.
Life doesn’t always wait until payday. You might need access to your wages earlier to cover urgent medical bills, unexpected home repairs, or simply to manage daily expenses when the cost of living stretches your budget. Sometimes, it's just about getting a gift for family during festive seasons. In these moments, having the flexibility to access earned wages before the end of the month can make all the difference — offering peace of mind and financial stability when it matters most.
We’re excited to introduce Early Wage Access, a feature that gives you more control over your finances. Now, you can get your earnings whenever you need.
How It Works:
Step 1: Complete at least one shift.
Step 2: Go to Earnings in your FastGig account.
Step 3: Select the shifts you want to request for early wage access.
Step 4: You're all set! Disbursement will be made to the bank account or e-wallet linked to your FastGig profile.
*Terms and conditions apply.
This is where FastGig stands out from other gig platforms. As our gigger, you don’t just get early wage access — you also enjoy a wider selection of shifts to match your lifestyle, plus added benefits that competitors don’t offer. Our rewards program lets you earn points for every shift completed, which you can redeem for shopping and lifestyle vouchers.
Say goodbye to waiting for payday—start making your money work for you, today!
Are gig workers the new answer to manpower shortage?
Interview with Julian Tan, CEO of FastCo Asia – CNA "Mind Your Money", 22 July 2025
In a recent interview on CNA’s Mind Your Money, FastCo Asia CEO Julian Tan spoke with host Cheryl Goh about how Singapore’s gig economy has evolved—and how FastGig is playing a pivotal role in shaping the future of flexible hiring for both businesses and individuals.
Once dominated by ride-hailing and food delivery, the gig economy has now expanded into key sectors like F&B, retail, logistics, and events. As Julian shared, this shift reflects a growing demand for agility in the workforce—and FastGig is meeting that need by connecting companies to a network of over 85,000 active gig workers across Singapore.

Making Gig Work More Accessible Than Ever
Julian emphasized that becoming a gig worker is far more accessible than most people think. As long as you're a Singaporean or PR aged 16 and above with a smartphone, you're already halfway there. With the FastGig app, anyone can set up a profile, list their skills or certifications, and start applying for jobs that match their experience and availability.
Beyond technical requirements, Julian highlighted that soft skills matter just as much—if not more. “Traits like reliability, adaptability, and a positive attitude go a long way. Employers value workers who show up, do the job well, and can adjust quickly to different roles,” he explained.
Why Businesses Are Turning to Gig Talent
In today’s economic climate, many businesses are grappling with uncertainty, fluctuating demand, and leaner operations. FastGig offers a timely solution—giving employers speed and flexibility in how they staff up.
“With over 85,000 workers on our platform, businesses can scale up their workforce almost instantly,” Julian said. “For example, if a retailer or F&B outlet expects a weekend spike or needs extra hands during festive periods, they can simply post the job in the app. The system matches them with available giggers who meet the requirements.”
This model helps companies avoid the risks of overstaffing or understaffing, and ensures businesses stay agile, efficient, and cost-effective, especially when managing seasonal surges or short-term manpower gaps.
Technology That Simplifies Everything
Cheryl pointed out a standout feature of FastGig: Payroll (Consolidated Payments). Rather than having companies handle wage payments to workers individually, FastGig acts as the middle layer—streamlining everything from time tracking to disbursements of wages.
Julian explained how the app automates the entire process. “Employers can log in, view who worked, how many hours, and what they’re owed. Gig workers check in and out for the shift using the app. The gig workers can track their hours, and see how much they’ve earned in real time. We then ensure payments are processed accurately and paid out weekly, giving workers and employers both transparency and peace of mind.”
This back-end support removes friction and allows both sides to focus on what matters most—getting the job done.
Empowering Workers Who Need Flexibility
One of FastGig’s core missions is to open up meaningful earning opportunities for those who may not fit into a typical 9-to-5 job. Julian shared how the platform has become especially helpful for stay-at-home parents, students, and retirees—people who want flexibility while still contributing to the household income or remaining engaged.
“For many, this is more than just a side gig—it’s a way to find purpose, stay active, and maintain financial independence,” he added.
Final Thought: Gig Work as a Viable Career Path
In closing, Julian offered a perspective shift: “Gig work is no longer just a stopgap. It’s becoming a long-term career choice for many. With the right attitude, skills, and tools like FastGig, anyone can find flexible, meaningful work that fits their lifestyle—on their own terms.”
Singapore’s retail, F&B, and events industries run on momentum. From the year-end shopping rush to large-scale expos and banquets, peak seasons can bring sudden spikes in customer demand. For employers, this means one challenge: How to grow manpower rapidly?
Traditional hiring methods, while effective for long-term roles, often struggle in these high-pressure situations.

Agility When It Matters Most
The biggest advantage of giggers is agility. Employers can scale their workforce up or down based on demand, without committing to long-term contracts. If a retail chain anticipates higher foot traffic during festive sales, or an events company requires extra crew for a one-off conference, gig workers can be quickly brought in to cover specific shifts — even if it’s just for a few hours.
This not only helps businesses manage costs more effectively but also ensures full-time staff aren’t overworked. Instead of overstretching current teams, employers can balance workloads by bringing in extra gig support when it’s needed most.
Experience You Can Rely On
Another strength that gig workers bring is varied experience. Many giggers have worked across different events, restaurants, or retail outlets, making them highly adaptable.They’re quick to adapt to new environments and get up to speed fast, which often means minimal training is needed.
For example, a gigger who has previously worked as banquet staff or an event usher can easily apply that knowledge in a new event setting. Their familiarity with industry norms, customer service, or even crowd management allows them to contribute effectively from day one.

Julian Tan our Founder and CEO of FastGig and FastJobs joins MoneyFM 89.3 to share how FastGig and FastJobs are helping companies stay agile in today’s rapidly evolving workforce landscape. From bridging talent gaps to empowering a new generation of independent workers, Julian explores how both brands are reimagining employment for both businesses and jobseekers.
Q: How would you describe the current state of Singapore’s gig economy?
Singapore’s gig economy has matured well beyond its early roots in ride-hailing and food delivery. Today, it's a fast-growing and evolving ecosystem. Over the past few years, we’ve seen strong demand emerge in sectors such as retail, logistics, F&B, and events — driven by businesses needing agile manpower solutions and individuals seeking flexible work options.
At FastGig, we’ve experienced this growth firsthand. In just the first half of this year, the number of new companies hiring via our platform has more than doubled. On the jobseeker side, we’ve seen a 30% year-on-year increase in new users. Many of these users are seeking greater autonomy, work-life balance, or a secondary income stream to support rising costs of living.
Q: What gig jobs are most in demand, and how has demand evolved?
Today, roles like grocery shoppers, e-commerce packers, event assistants, F&B crew, and retail associates are highly sought after—especially during peak shopping periods or festive seasons. Singapore companies are increasingly turning to gig workers to scale their manpower quickly without the long-term commitment or overhead of full-time hires, to solve the urgent vacancy gap.
One great example is Decathlon, which has been using FastGig since 2023. During their high-demand periods, our platform helped them fill 75% of their staffing needs within a short time frame—ensuring smooth retail operations across multiple outlets nationwide.
Q: Gig workers often face challenges like job insecurity and inconsistent income. How is FastGig addressing this?
We understand that for many gig workers, timely pay and workplace safety are critical. That’s why FastGig ensures prompt, reliable payments—so our users don’t have to worry about chasing wages. We also provide workplace injury insurance, giving them peace of mind should anything happen on the job.
Beyond this, we have strict onboarding processes for employers. Every company is vetted for credibility, and in some cases, our team even tests the jobs personally to ensure they’re safe and suitable for our community of giggers.
Q: Is gig work still viewed as temporary in Singapore, or is it becoming a viable long-term career path?
Traditionally, gig work in Singapore was seen as something to do during school breaks or between jobs. But that perception is shifting. More people are choosing gig work as a serious, longer-term option—valuing the flexibility and control it offers over their schedules and earnings.
At FastGig, we don’t just connect workers to short-term jobs—we help them build up verified work histories. Over time, this opens doors to higher-paying gigs and even full-time roles. One inspiring example: a gig worker started with Decathlon through FastGig, performed exceptionally, and was offered a full-time role in 2023. Today, she’s a department manager, leading a team in one of their largest stores.

You might need access to your wages earlier to cover urgent medical bills, unexpected home repairs, or simply to manage daily expenses when the cost of living stretches your budget. Sometimes, it's just about getting a gift for family during festive seasons.
