Frequently asked
When do I get paid?
Once both you and the client confirm a session and evaluations are in, the earning enters our payout workflow with a 7-day target from completion.
Do I need SACE registration?
Only where it applies to your offering. Requirements are configured per subject, category, learner age group and service — for example, driving instructors need instructor certificates and board-exam tutors need the relevant professional registration.
Will my address be public?
No. Clients only see your suburb and an approximate, privacy-offset location and distance.
