Bookings are your core income. A client selects your service, pays upfront, and the money sits in escrow until you deliver. You keep your creator share — every time, on time.
Your fee
The platform keeps 20% of each booking. You keep the rest. After your first 10 completed bookings, your platform fee automatically drops by 2% — rewarding creators who show up consistently.
Set competitive prices
Research what services similar to yours cost in your city. Price at the premium end — Velvet Africa clients are not looking for the cheapest option.
Create specific service packages
Vague services get scrolled past. 'Private 2-hour Cultural Food Tour of Kampala' gets booked. Include what's in it, how long, and what happens at the end.
Respond within 2 hours
Creators who respond to booking requests within 2 hours have 40% higher rebooking rates. Set a phone notification. Don't miss it.
Deliver fully
The booking amount only releases after you mark the session complete. Do the full service, every time. Your rating compounds over months — and so does your income.
You can create multiple services at different price points — a starter, a signature, and a premium. Clients self-select. The middle tier usually sells best, and the premium tier makes the signature look like a bargain.
