Payment & Paid Services

Some aspects of our Service may be offered for a fee or other charges. By choosing to utilize the paid features of our Service, you hereby consent to the pricing and payment terms, which we may revise periodically. VeroSkills reserves the right to introduce new services with associated fees and charges, or modify the fees and charges for existing services, at its sole discretion and at any time.

Tutors operating on the VeroSkills platform are eligible to receive compensation for their services. If you qualify for payment for your time spent conducting tutoring calls with other users, we will facilitate this through a third-party service, Stripe. For individual tutoring sessions, a competitive rate of $50.00 per hour will be applied, and payments will be calculated on a minute-by-minute basis. In the case of group tutoring sessions, the rate increases to $65.00 per hour, with minute-by-minute payment calculation. When your earned balance reaches $25.00, VeroSkills will review your provided services and initiate the payout to your preferred payment method linked to your Stripe account.

Tutor Compensation and Performance
