Common questions
Is it free for students and expats?
Yes. Guides, country comparisons, the agents directory and sending enquiries are free. You pay an agent or provider only for work you agree with them.
Is there a fee to apply as an agent?
No. Applying and being verified is free, and a free Listed profile stays free. You choose a paid plan only if you want to read and reply to student enquiries, or to be featured. Agents pay no commission to Emooves.
Can an agent pay for verification?
No. Every agent is checked in the same way whatever plan they are on. A plan changes how many enquiries you can answer and where you appear, never whether you are verified.
How do I know a Featured agent has paid?
Featured placement is always labelled "Featured", and the agents page says it is paid for.
What does a client pay?
The provider's quoted price, plus VAT where it applies. Emooves does not add a fee on top.
How do I know how an agent is paid?
Every agent states on their profile whether they are paid by clients only or also receive commission from institutions, and explains any commission.
How do payments for business services work?
Clients can pay by bank transfer today. Card payments through our payment processor are coming soon. The payment is held in escrow and released to the provider once the work is done.
When does a business provider get paid?
When the work is finished, the provider requests release. Emooves reviews the request and releases the payout.
