Every musician sets their own rates — Bookt doesn't cap or cut your price. We take 7.5% only when a booking completes. So if you quote £1,500 and the customer books, Bookt's fee is £112.50 and you keep £1,387.50. No subscription means it costs you nothing in months where you don't book.
No — Bookt matches by your travel radius, not your postcode. Any musician who covers Newcastle as part of their service area can apply for gigs here, whether you're based in the city itself or commuting in for events.
The customer pays a deposit when they book, held in a secure Stripe escrow. The balance is paid before the event, and funds are released to your payout account after the job is complete. No chasing invoices, no late payments.
Yes, any time. There's no lock-in, no notice period, no exit fee. Archive your profile from the dashboard and you stop receiving leads that day.
