Your town’s pros, booked on your site.
Cleaners, handymen and dog walkers sign up, you approve them, and customers book and pay them through your site. The money lands in each pro’s own Stripe, and your commission comes on a statement.
It starts from“A local services marketplace where providers sign up, get approved by me, and connect Stripe to get paid; each provider lists their services with photos at price tiers I set; customers search by service and area, then book and pay the provider directly; I bill providers a monthly commission, and I get an email for every new provider.”

What comes working in a services marketplace app?
The whole market, open on day one.
Sign-ups, approvals, listings, search and payouts come working in the first version, under your name and in your colors.
- ✓ Comes working01
Pros sign up and get paid
A provider makes an account and connects their own Stripe in a guided sign-up. What customers pay goes to them, not through you.
- ✓ Comes working02
You approve every pro
New providers wait in your Admin until you say yes. One button lists them, another takes a listing down.
- ✓ Comes working03
Listings with photos of the work
Each pro adds the services they offer, a short bio and photos of past jobs, and can only ever edit their own.
- ✓ Comes working04
Search by service and area
Customers filter by the job they need and the part of town they live in, then sort what comes back.
- ✓ Comes working05
Book and pay the pro
Customers pick a service at one of the price tiers you set and pay by card. The money goes into that provider’s own Stripe, and our fee is 1% or less.
- ✓ Comes working06
Your commission, on a statement
Each week or month, every pro gets an itemized statement of their sales, net of refunds, and your commission is charged a few days after it.
- ✓ Comes working07
Pros see their own sales
A signed-in provider sees what customers paid them, refunds taken out, and nobody else’s numbers.
What customers book, and what you run.
Customers search, pick a pro and a service tier, and pay. You see new providers waiting for approval and every booking in your Admin.
How does a local services marketplace make money?
A cut of every job, billed on a statement.
A services marketplace earns a commission on the work it brings in. Your site does the finding: customers search, compare pros and book. The pro does the job and is paid by the customer directly, into their own Stripe.
Your share comes after. At the end of each week or month, every pro gets an itemized statement of what they sold, minus refunds, and your commission is charged to the card they saved when they joined. Nobody’s money sits with you in between.
- Earn on bookingsYour rate rides every sale a pro makes on your site.
- Approve who joinsYour name is on the site, so only pros you trust get listed.
- Tiers you setCustomers compare like with like, and pros offer the tiers they do.
Which local services work best as a marketplace?
Start with one trade in one town.
The marketplaces that take off start narrow: house cleaners in one city, dog walkers in a few neighborhoods, a handyman for small jobs. Customers know what they are buying, and set price tiers make sense when the jobs look alike. Add the next trade once the first one is busy.
No live map or dispatch of providers, no in-app chat, and prices come from tiers you set rather than each provider’s own number.
