The process

How a Pro Booker booking works

01

Apply and get verified

Submit your business details - website, LinkedIn profile, and references from clients or venues. Carina reviews every application manually. No automatic approvals.

02

Source a client booking

When a client needs entertainment or event services, bring them to Gigster. Log in as a Pro Booker, select the vendor, and submit the enquiry on behalf of your client - their details are captured at enquiry stage.

03

Vendor quotes, client pays

The vendor builds their quote through Gigster's quote builder. Your 10% referral fee is added on top of the vendor's price - neither the artist nor you lose anything from the booking value.

04

Booking confirmed - you get paid

Once the client pays their deposit, your referral is locked in. Your payout is processed after the event through your Pro Booker dashboard - same protected payout infrastructure as all vendor payouts.

Why it works

Built for booking professionals, not hobbyists.

Earn 10% on every booking

Your referral fee is added on top of the booking value - not deducted from the artist's fee, not from Gigster's commission. You're never competing with anyone else's earnings.

Your clients are protected

Every booking you source comes with a signed digital contract and deposit protection. If something goes wrong on event day, Gigster mediates. Your professional reputation stays intact.

Full pipeline visibility

Track every booking you've originated - quote status, payment received, upcoming event dates - from your dedicated Pro Booker dashboard. No chasing vendors for updates.

Transparent fee structure

The client sees one total price. The vendor sees their full quoted fee. You see your referral amount. No hidden deductions, no surprises at payout - everyone's numbers are agreed upfront.

Who qualifies

This is for working professionals only.

Pro Booker status is not automatic. Every applicant is reviewed by Gigster before approval. We look for active, verifiable businesses - not casual referrers.

Active business in event coordination, entertainment booking, or PCO services
A verifiable website or professional online presence
LinkedIn profile or equivalent professional network
At least two client or venue references
South African-based operation (for Phase 1)

Pro Booker referral fees are added on top of the client total - the artist always receives their full quoted price, and Gigster's commission is separate. List as a vendor instead →
