Why this works for tutors
New tutors can start without risk, while more established tutors have a strong reason to upgrade once the platform is generating regular bookings.
There's also a free path to the lower rate: complete 10 lessons with the same customer and merit pricing kicks in automatically — your fee for that customer drops to 6%, and their booking fee is waived.

Tax and business responsibilities
Tutors on Skillio work as independent contractors, not employees. That means you set your own rates and hours, and you're responsible for your own tax registration, income reporting, and any GST or ABN obligations that apply to your tutoring work.
Skillio provides the booking, messaging, and payment platform that connects you with families and charges a platform fee for that service — it doesn't act as your employer or handle your tax affairs.
