About this package

This package builds a local services marketplace where customers enter an address, see providers who cover it and book a time slot online, for cleaners, tutors, dog walkers, repair technicians and similar trades. The customer wants a time, not a quote, and the site is built around that.

Matching an address to a provider

Each provider lists their services with price and duration, their working hours and the postcodes or radius they cover. When a customer types an address, only providers who serve it appear. On Starter the customer sends a booking request and the provider accepts it. From Business up, the customer picks a free slot calculated from the provider's hours and existing bookings, and the slot is held the moment they confirm.

Payments, reminders and payouts

  • Business takes full payment or a deposit by Stripe, applies your commission per booking, sends SMS or WhatsApp reminders through an account you hold, and collects ratings after completed bookings.
  • Premium pays providers through Stripe Connect, syncs each provider's Google Calendar so time they block there is never offered, handles recurring bookings such as a weekly clean, and enforces your cancellation and reschedule rules.

Before you order

A booking marketplace needs providers before it needs customers, so most founders start in one city or district with providers they have recruited. SMS and WhatsApp messages are billed per message by Twilio or Meta to your own account. Background checks, licences and insurance for providers are your responsibility; the site can store a verified flag you set after your own checks. Premium is a larger build, which is why its delivery time is longer than the other plans.

I have built websites, WHMCS modules and web apps for clients since before AI coding tools existed. Today I build with AI-assisted tools and review every change myself, which is why fixed prices here are lower than an agency's for the same scope. I work while the US, Canada and Australia sleep, so each morning there is progress on your staging link.

Questions about this package

Can customers book more than one service in a single visit?

Yes, if the provider offers both. The customer adds the services, the site adds up the duration and finds a slot long enough for all of them, and the total price shows before payment. Providers can mark services that cannot be combined, such as a deep clean and an end-of-tenancy clean.

What if a provider works in more than one area?

A provider can list several postcodes, a radius from their base, or both. They can also set different travel fees per area, so a customer further away sees a higher total before booking. The search only shows providers whose coverage includes the customer's address.

Can I run this for my own team instead of independent providers?

Yes. If the providers are your staff, you skip payouts and commission, and each team member gets a calendar and service area. Customers still book live slots and pay online. That setup is closer to a multi-staff booking site, and I can recommend which plan covers it.

How ordering a package works

  1. 1

    Choose a plan

    Pick Starter, Business or Premium and pay once by card, PayPal or crypto. The price on the page is the price.

  2. 2

    Send your content

    A project opens for your order. Send your text, logo, photos and any logins I need there.

  3. 3

    I build it

    I build on a private staging link you can open on your phone, with updates as I go.

  4. 4

    Launch and handover

    After your approval the site goes live on your domain, and every login is yours.

One-time price, no monthly fee from me

You pay for the build once. Your domain and hosting are registered in your name and renewed with your hosting provider, who bills you directly. I add nothing on top, and the site keeps running whether or not you hire me again.

What I do not build

Gambling and adult websites, and sites that sell content without the rights to it. Need something not listed? Ask for a custom quote.
