How Do I Pay to list My Venue?
Packages to list your venue(s) are based on a fixed fee annual charge, or a commission rate.

We take fixed fee payments through Direct Debit with our payment processor GoCardless. We use Direct Debit because it is simple, convenient and safe, however, if you need an alternative method just let us know.

The final stage of your venue listing process will take you to the payment page.
As soon as payment has been processed we will review your listing and your advert will go live on the website.

If you have joined on a commission package, the sum is taken as a deposit or part there-of when a booking is confirmed.

Can I upgrade to a Featured Advert?
You can upgrade to a featured advert whenever you wish. We recommend upgrading as soon as possible to allow your advert to have more time in the Featured areas around the website. If you want to upgrade just let us know through the Contact Form
