👋 Commission can be a bit of a sensitive topic, so we want to be as open and transparent as possible when explaining what we do with it and how it’s broken down. The commission we charge you is sort of like a finder’s fee - it’s the cost of us sourcing all those lovely bookings for you. While other platforms may charge a subscription fee or make you pay to quote, we only make money when you’re making money.

✅  Dos

• Think of our commission as your marketing budget. Instead of printing flyers or taking a punt on Google Ads, you’re getting direct access to top corporate clients such as Spotify and Tesla, film sets, high budget weddings, and sought-after public events. We do all the hard work bringing in thousands of requests for you to browse and quote for and making changes to the platform to improve your experience.
• Charge what you’d typically charge for direct bookings - the commission cost is for you to cover, not the customer, by inflating your prices to cover it.
• Let Josh, our Community Manager, know if you’ve got any questions around pricing, commission or how to communicate your quote to customers.

❌ Don’ts

• Increase your quotes by 15% to cover the commission. This results in the costs of your **** commission being covered by the customer.
• Discuss Feast It’s commission with the customer, in the same way you wouldn’t talk about your other business costs. When a customer requests a price breakdown, stick to high level categories such as travel & staffing.
• Worry about Feast It’s Service Charge. This fee is strictly between the customer and Feast It, you don’t have to worry about figuring it into your quote or talking about it with customers. The Service Charge is the customer’s fee for making the booking through Feast It so is completely disconnected from your commission.
