Free for students. 0% commission for tutors.

Yes. Tutors agree lessons and get paid directly by their students — FolioTutors never sits in the middle of payment and never takes a cut. We make money from optional tutor subscriptions (verification and highlighting), not from your lessons.

Completely. Searching, browsing profiles, and contacting tutors costs nothing, and there are no booking fees — the hourly rate on a tutor’s profile is exactly what you pay the tutor.

Verification (£9.99/mo, first 7 days free) includes an identity and credentials review by our team, a verified badge on your profile and in search results, placement above unverified tutors in search, your qualifications displayed to students, and the option to show your phone number and email so students can contact you instantly.

Every new Verified Profile subscription starts with a 7-day free trial. You add a card at checkout but pay £0 today — the first £9.99 charge only happens after the trial ends, and you can cancel any time before then from your dashboard and pay nothing.

Highlighting (£9.99/mo) pins your profile above standard listings in search results and on subject and city pages, so you're the first tutor students see. You can cancel any time and keep the boost until the end of the billing period.

Yes — both plans can be cancelled any time from your dashboard. Your benefits stay active until the end of the period you have already paid for, and you will not be charged again.

No — listing is free and we never take commission. Verified tutors appear above unverified tutors in search and get significantly more enquiries, which is why most tutors start their free verification week during sign-up. You can still list a basic profile without it.
