Success Fee

Trades pay a small success fee only when they win a job and work has started (confirmed). This applies to Standard, Verified, and Gold.

Job size Example Success fee
Basic
Handyman, small plumbing $10.00
Medium
Bathroom, rewiring $25.00
High-end
Extensions, roofing $50.00
Success fees are triggered only after the “job started” confirmation process (trade confirms + customer confirms). A survey booking ($5) may apply when a trade accepts a survey visit. That is a survey booking, never a lead fee, and it is credited against the success fee if they win.

You'll never be one of five

Maximum three trades per job, and the customer picks who surveys. That is the difference between a lottery ticket and a real chance.

Start free. Upgrade when you're ready.

Built to win work through trust and visibility - not paywalls.
