mutual assistance

Is it possible to arrange for the provision of a service for a service? For example, I'll give some online English lessons to someone from Mexico, and then I'll come there for a vacation and stay at that person's house for free. Is it possible to specify both the need and the deed in the questionnaire at once, or specify the deed and write a comment?

This is something we have thought about and this will also be possible.

 The trick here is that the needer is accurate in the description of the need posted for the purpose of the app, but at the same time, when a connection has been made between a needer and a deeder, the task posted need to be verified as an accepted task as it has been posted, meaning the description of the need is accurate of the actual need and the deeder is in agreement that this is actually so.

What the communication is about between these two during that stage is not something we will meddle in. We kind of expect a lot of such where the connection is growing into something more than just a task verification or a neutral deed done as people will come together and in some instances, a connection or friendship will grow. :) How that is handled betweeen a needer and a deeder is not up to us or anyone under Deeedz, so if you in this example offer to travel to Mexico to spend intensive time to teach English for some weeks for example, both of you can for example update the verified need and then agree on it if you wish. The point is that the posted need is taken care of, how it is done is not up to Deeedz at all as long as the need is a verified and an actual need. :)
