FAQ

Good questions.
Straight answers.

Access, pricing, ownership and what comes next.

Is BusinessThing publicly available?

BusinessThing Storefront is in private early access. We work with the first organisers to enable the booking formats and operational tools appropriate to their business.

How do the platform fee and Stripe fees work?

Your first owned workspace has no monthly platform charge. The total BusinessThing platform fee is 2% of the full eligible shopper payment, including customer GST, after discounts. The platform fee includes GST where applicable. Refunds and disputes adjust usage. Stripe processing is charged separately and does not reduce the fee base.

What is included, and can I use it on its own?

The base offering includes a hosted booking catalogue, offering pages, booking links and checkout, connected to the Management Portal, staff app and reporting under your enabled capabilities. Logos, basic colours, descriptions and offering images are included.

How many Portal seats are included?

The base offering includes 3 Management Portal seats. Each additional Portal seat is A$20 per month. The 2% platform fee still applies, and the optional website is a separate add-on. All prices are in Australian dollars.

Do I need the optional website?

No. Keep your existing website and link customers to your booking pages. Add a hosted business homepage with featured offerings, introduction and contact content and richer design controls for A$25/month during private early access. The 2% platform fee still applies.

How do in-person payments work?

The staff app supports Stripe-issued BBPOS WisePad 3 readers where physical-reader payments are enabled. Card payments need connectivity and configured Stripe Terminal access. Stripe processing and the reader are separate costs. Tap to Pay is coming soon.

Do organisers remain the seller of record?

Yes. The organiser remains the seller of record for its offerings. BusinessThing provides the Storefront, checkout technology and management tools.

Can I sell courses, classes and online events?

Yes. Scheduled course intakes, whole blocks, casual places, eligible prepaid class passes and online events are supported booking formats. Pass purchase and place reservation are separate steps. Online offerings do not include video or lesson hosting.
