10%
of session rate

Automatically deducted from the specialist's earnings, clients are never charged this fee.

£4
per session

Paid by the client on top of the session rate. Covers secure video, scheduling, messaging and payment processing.

£0
monthly subscription

Neither clients nor specialists pay a recurring fee. You pay only when a session takes place.

Common Questions
