Terms of Service

Version 1.1 | Effective: October 8, 2026

1. Acceptance of Terms

By accessing and using this platform ("Service"), you accept and agree to be bound by the terms and provision of this agreement.

If you do not agree to abide by the above, please do not use this service.

2. Platform Description

Our platform is a work-focused professional network that enables professionals to connect, collaborate, and monetize their expertise without distractions. Key features include:

  • Professional networking (distraction-free, work-only content)
  • Local professional discovery and connections
  • Booking and consultation services
  • Digital marketplace for professional services and products
  • Live streaming for professional content
  • Community features and collaboration tools

3. Revenue Model & Fees

Membership Tiers:

Free Member - $0/month
  • Network access and basic features
  • No monetization capabilities
  • No credit card required
Professional Member - $4.97/month
  • Full platform access including monetization
  • First month free for new Professional subscribers: 30 days at no charge, then $4.97/month. One free month per member and per payment account on each OnlyWorkLife platform (e.g. only-hair and only-art are separate), including after an account on that platform is deleted and opened again
  • Each OnlyWorkLife platform is a separate membership. Cancelling your plan or deleting your account on one platform does not affect your plan, free month or account on any other
  • Cancel anytime, no long-term commitment. Cancelling before the first charge costs nothing

Early Access:

While a platform is in its early-access period, it is free while we grow: every feature, including selling, is open at no cost, and no card is needed. Membership fees above are not charged during early access. When paid plans begin, we will give you at least 30 days' notice, and you will never be charged unless you choose a plan.

Transaction Fees:

For Professional members who monetize their expertise:

  • No platform fee. We take nothing from your sales, bookings, tips or subscriptions
  • You are paid through PayPal, into your own PayPal account, when the customer pays. We never hold your money
  • PayPal charges its own payment processing fee on each payment. That is the only deduction

Fee Transparency:

All fees are clearly displayed before any transaction. There are no hidden costs. We take no platform fee; the payment processor's fee is the only one.

Refund Policy:

Monthly subscriptions: Prorated refund available within 7 days of billing. Service transactions: Handled directly between professionals and clients per their agreement. When a payment is refunded, any platform fee on it is refunded with it.

How to ask for a refund, and what happens next: Refund Policy.
