HOW IT WORKS

From profile to payout in four steps

01

Create your free profile

Add your portfolio, your service packages and where you work. Joining and listing are free, with no monthly fees.

02

Get inquiries, send offers

Clients message you from your profile with their date and details. Chat it through, then send a custom offer in the conversation.

03

Get paid through Stripe

The client pays online when they accept your offer, or when you request payment. Your share goes to your Stripe account and on to your bank.

04

Deliver and keep 95%

Upload the finished photos to the booking’s private gallery. Your client opens it once the booking is paid, and you keep 95% of your price.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

When a client pays for a booking (one of your packages or your custom offer), a flat 5% platform fee is taken from that payment. You keep 95% of your stated rate. Standard Stripe payment processing fees (~2.9% + $0.30) are passed to the client at checkout so they never eat into your earnings.
