This Agreement is between CF Global Sports Group (Pty) Ltd t/a Coachfinder, operator of Coachfinder, and the approved Coach. By accepting electronically, the Coach agrees to the terms below.
Coachfinder is a technology platform facilitating bookings and payments between clients and independent coaches. CF Global Sports Group (Pty) Ltd t/a Coachfinder does not provide coaching services.
The Coach operates as an independent contractor and service provider on Coachfinder — not as an employee, partner, joint venturer, or agent of CF Global Sports Group (Pty) Ltd t/a Coachfinder. The Coach is solely responsible for their services, qualifications, conduct, and tax obligations.
Session booking payments become eligible for withdrawal only once the associated booking has been marked completed. Coach wallet balances may be withdrawn and paid out on the next scheduled payout day — Coachfinder processes all coach withdrawals every business day, Monday to Friday. No separate withdrawal fee applies.
The Coach agrees to the platform's flat 48-hour cancellation rule: clients who cancel 48 hours or more before a scheduled session receive a full refund. Clients who cancel within 48 hours of the session forfeit the full session fee, which is retained as compensation for the reserved time the Coach is unable to rebook. This rule is fixed platform-wide and is not configurable by individual Coaches.
The Coach must complete Coachfinder's two-part verification process: KYC Verification — Didit, an automated identity check completed through Coachfinder's identity verification partner, Didit (or, where the Coach is unable to complete this automatically, manual identity review by Coachfinder); and Professional Verification — Coachfinder Admin, under which Coachfinder reviews the Coach's submitted certification documents and confirms them with the issuing institution. All identification and certification documents submitted must be accurate, current, and may be re-verified at any time. False or misleading information may result in suspension or termination, within a 2-3 day timeframe for termination of the account if needed.

No fee is charged on wallet withdrawals, as set out in the Pricing & Billing Schedule.
Payments can be made via American Express, card payment, Apple Pay, Google Pay, Scan to Pay, 1Voucher, or Pay by Bank. Capitec Pay.

The Coach acknowledges that monthly plans are prepaid and cover a one-month period per purchase, with the option to renew or upgrade at any time during that period. If the plan expires without renewal, unused sessions carry over automatically into one further month, during which the Coach's profile remains active. A warning is sent 3 (three) days before that additional month is due to end. Once the carried-over sessions are exhausted or that additional month ends — whichever happens first — the profile is frozen immediately if no new plan has been purchased. Freezing does not delete the Coach's profile or history, and the Coach may reactivate at any time by purchasing a new plan. Annual/VIP plans cover a fixed 12-month term with sessions pooled and usable at any pace. Where the Coach is a natural person, the plan may be cancelled at any time with 20 business days' written notice; the refund is calculated pro-rata for the unused term, less one month's standard-rate fee as a cancellation charge, and will never be less than R0. Where the Coach is registered as a juristic person (institutional account), the plan remains non-cancellable for its term and may only be upgraded. Additional session top-up packs may be purchased at any time on any plan. Full terms are set out in the Pricing & Billing Schedule
Where a session involves more than one athlete — whether through a multi-athlete standard booking or a Group Training Event — each athlete added consumes one session from the Coach's plan session pool and is billed at the Coach's normal per-session rate. This applies in addition to, and on the same basis as, the standard per-session billing described elsewhere in this Agreement.
Where a Coach cancels an entire Group Training Event, every athlete who paid to attend is entitled to a full refund, processed through Coachfinder's standard refund process as set out in the Refund Policy. No separate cancellation or refund mechanism applies to Group Training Events.
Coachfinder may publicly display a Coach's session activity, ranking, and related achievements as part of the Coach Leaderboard and any related recognition features on the platform
