How this simulation works

Each game is one of ten templates for a kind of work, filled with this platform’s real data where we have it. Anything we don’t know is either the typical value for its platform type or a plain assumption, and is labelled so below. Demand, job volume and luck are simulated.

A simplified simulation based on Snappr’s published rules, for learning only. It is not an earnings promise: real results depend on your skills, location, demand and Snappr’s current rules.
