Platform fees are deducted from the original task value before calculating any compensations. The tutor receives 90% of the task value, from which your compensation as intermediary is calculated.

Illustrative Example: How Are Earnings Calculated?

Scenario:

A client requests a task worth 5,000 SAR. The tutor delegates you to complete the task with a compensation rate of 15%.

1
Original task value
5,000 SAR
2
Platform fee (10%)
- 500 SAR
5,000 × 10% = 500
3
Tutor's net earnings
4,500 SAR
5,000 - 500 = 4,500
4
Your compensation (15%)
675 SAR
4,500 × 15% = 675
5
Tutor's final net earnings
3,825 SAR
4,500 - 675 = 3,825

Intermediary Compensation Types

Percentage

You receive a percentage of the tutor's net earnings. Higher task value means higher compensation.

Example: 15%
Net 4,500 → You get 675

Fixed Amount

You receive a predetermined amount regardless of the actual task value.

Example: 500 SAR fixed
Any task → You get 500

Hybrid

Fixed amount + percentage. Guarantees a minimum with potential for more.

Example: 200 + 5%
Net 4,500 → 200 + 225 = 425

Frequently Asked Questions About Fees

Are fees deducted from my compensation?

No. Your compensation is calculated from the tutor's net earnings (after platform fees), and reaches you in full without any additional deductions.

Who pays the platform fees?

Platform fees are deducted from the task value before profit distribution. Effectively, the tutor bears these fees from their share.

Can I negotiate the compensation rate?

Yes. Before accepting any delegation, you can discuss the compensation rate or amount with the tutor. The delegation doesn't start until you agree to the terms.

What if the tutor has outstanding debts?

If the tutor has unpaid debts related to the task, your compensation release may be delayed until the debts are settled. You'll be notified if this applies.
