Common Questions
What is the 3% transaction fee?
When you complete a job through 7Hands, we charge 3% of the job value. For a £1,000 job, that's £30. No fee is charged for quotes, messages, or jobs that don't go through.
Why 3% instead of monthly fees?
Monthly fees mean you pay even when work is slow. With 3%, you only pay when you earn. Complete a £500 job? That's £15. No jobs that month? £0. It aligns our success with yours.
How does this compare to competitors?
Checkatrade charges £90-140/month regardless of work. Bark charges per lead (shared with 4+ others). TaskRabbit takes 15-22%. Our 3% is simple, transparent, and only on completed work.
Is anything FREE for homeowners?
Yes — 7Hands is completely free for homeowners. They can post jobs, get quotes, and message tradespeople without paying anything.
