Pricing & fees

Zero hidden margin. Trust is our product.

Every fee we charge is displayed here, in black and white — who pays what, when, and why. And your escrow money is never mixed with the platform's operations: it stays ring-fenced in a dedicated account until your milestones are approved.

Indicative ranges — the final fee schedule will be published at launch.

The golden rule

Two non-negotiable principles

They are carved into our specifications — because opacity would destroy our only real product: your trust.

📢

Every fee is displayed

Every dinar PontBat earns is listed on this page. No hidden margin on quotes, materials or exchange rates — ever.

🔒

Escrow is never mixed with operations

Your money is ring-fenced in a dedicated escrow account, separate from the platform's accounts. It never funds our operations.

For clients

  • Guaranteed payment within 48h of milestone or delivery approval

Marketplaces

Marketplace fees: paid by the seller

Never a hidden surcharge for the client — on materials, the client even pays at most the market price.

🧱

Materials

3–6%

Margin on prices negotiated with the supplier network. The client always pays ≤ market price: the volume discount funds the fee.

🚜

Equipment rental

8–12%

On each rental concluded through the platform (mini-excavators, scaffolding, mixers…). Paid by the rental company.

🛋️

Furniture

8–15%

On sales in the furniture marketplace (kitchens, bathrooms, furniture). Paid by the seller, payment guaranteed on delivery.

These fees are settled by the seller or rental company — never added to the client's invoice.

Frequently asked questions

Four questions, four clear answers

🔐

Why an escrow?

Because it is the only mechanism that protects both sides: the client pays nothing upfront, and the professional is certain to be paid as soon as the milestone is verified. Funds are ring-fenced in a dedicated account, never mixed with the platform's operations.

🏪

Who pays the marketplace fee?

The seller (supplier, rental company, furniture vendor) — never the client. On materials, the client even pays at most the market price: the fee is taken from the volume discount negotiated by the network.

🪪

What does the pro subscription cover?

The verified showcase profile-CV, access to calls for tender, guaranteed payment within 48h and zero unpaid invoices. Tiers (TND 30–200/month, indicative) depend on the profile: craftsman, company, design office, supplier or rental company.

🧾

Are the fees negotiable?

The displayed ranges are indicative: the exact rate depends on the size and complexity of the project, and it is announced at scoping, before any commitment. What is never negotiable: transparency — the amount is written in black and white in your contract.

Now you know exactly what you pay

That is what trust means: everything is displayed before you start. Start your project, or join the network of verified professionals.
