A verified badge means a coach has completed both parts of Coachfinder's verification process: KYC Verification — Didit, an automated check confirming the coach is a real, live person, and Professional Verification — Coachfinder Admin, where our team reviews the coach's qualifications and credentials directly with the issuing institution. Both must be completed before a coach can accept bookings on the platform.

Verification has two parts. KYC Verification — Didit is a short, automatic identity check (an ID document, a live selfie, and a liveness check) completed through our identity verification partner, Didit — this takes a few minutes and does not need admin review. Professional Verification — Coachfinder Admin requires uploading your coaching certificates and qualification documents, which our team reviews and confirms directly with the issuing institution. If you're unable to complete the automatic identity check, you can switch to manual review instead — see "What if I can't complete KYC Verification automatically?"

Coachfinder charges a 3% platform fee on your plan price. It is added to the plan price at checkout and shown as its own line, so you always see it before you pay. Coachfinder does not take a commission on your coaching sessions, and there is no fee for withdrawing your earnings. If the platform fee ever changes, coaches and institutions are told by email at least 30 days before an increase takes effect.

Yes. Even as an independent coach working solo, you can list separate services within a single sport — for example, if you coach soccer, you could set up Goalkeeper Coaching, Defensive Coaching, and Forward Coaching as distinct service listings under your profile, rather than one generic "soccer coach" entry. This isn't limited to academies or institutions — a one-person coaching business can do the same thing to show up for more specific searches and get more value out of a single plan. How many services you can list depends on your plan: Bronze allows up to 3, Silver up to 4, and Gold up to 5. Every service still draws from the same plan and session pool.

Yes. When booking a standard session with a coach, you can add more than one athlete to that same booking — for example, if you're bringing two of your children to the same time slot. Each additional athlete is billed and counted as its own session.

A Group Training Event is a clinic or multi-day training block that a coach sets up for a group of athletes at once, rather than one-on-one. Invited athletes (or their parent/guardian, if under 18) accept or decline before a deadline set by the coach, and payment is collected upfront once accepted. If a coach cancels the whole event, everyone who paid is refunded through our standard refund process. (Paid Add-on Plugin)

Once a client's session is marked completed, the full session price lands in your Coachfinder wallet. You can request a withdrawal at any time, for any amount you have available. There is no minimum and no fee. We check each request automatically within seconds, and approved withdrawals are paid by EFT every business day at 18:00. After that it is normal bank timing: usually 1 to 2 business days, sometimes instant. Payouts go to South African bank accounts in rand.

Coachfinder uses a two-part verification model. KYC Verification — Didit confirms who you are: an automated check, powered by our identity verification partner Didit, that verifies your ID document and confirms you're a real, live person. Professional Verification — Coachfinder Admin confirms what you're qualified to do: our own team reviews your coaching certificates and qualifications and contacts the issuing institution to confirm they're genuine. Didit proves identity. Coachfinder proves coaching credentials. A coach's profile only goes live once both are complete.

If you're unable to complete the automatic Didit identity check, you can switch to manual review from your identity verification page. You'll be asked to upload a copy of your ID document instead, and our team will review it by hand alongside your coaching certificates. You can switch back to the automatic check at any time before your identity has been verified.

No. When a client books and pays for a session through Coachfinder, the full session price is credited to your wallet. Coachfinder's only charge is the platform fee on your plan.

It covers the cost of running your plan on Coachfinder: setting it up, keeping your profile and bookings running, and the payment processing on your client bookings. For example, on a plan priced at R100 the platform fee is R3.00, shown on your checkout and invoice next to the plan price and VAT if applicable.

No. Your clients pay the price you set for the session and nothing on top of it.

Yes. In your settings you can choose "Client pays me directly". After a client books, they see your payment instructions (for example your bank details) and pay you straight away. Coachfinder does not receive, hold, refund or guarantee these payments, so you are responsible for receiving the money, for any refund and for any tax on it. The slot is held for 24 hours. The session counts against your plan, and the client can review it, only when you tap "Payment received". If you do not confirm in time, the slot is released. Your plan and the 3% platform fee stay the same either way, and no commission is charged.

"Paid through Coachfinder" is the default: clients pay online, the money is held in your wallet and you withdraw it. Choose "Client pays me directly" only if you prefer to handle your own payments. Direct payments are not protected by Coachfinder.
