For talents
How much does Gig Guru cost?
Joining is free. We take a 10% commission on each completed gig, or 5% with Gig Pro (RM69.90 a month, including Markora Pro). 1.25% of each completed gig goes to PERKESO for your SOCSO cover (LINDUNG Kendiri). We register you, so you don't need to register separately; check your status on PERKESO's PRIHATIN portal or app. Example: on an RM800 gig you receive RM710, or RM750 with Gig Pro.
When do I get paid?
The client pays into escrow before the gig. Once the gig is confirmed, your payout reaches your bank account within 7 days.
Do I keep the rights to my music and artwork?
Yes. Your work stays yours. Markora watermarks your uploads and records that you made them. Each agreement says what the client may use and how.
What does Gig Pal do?
Gig Pal is our AI guide. It helps you build your profile, suggests rates based on similar gigs, drafts agreements and sends reminders. It gives general guidance only; you make every decision.
Can I also hire other creatives?
Yes. One account can be both a talent and a client. Switch roles from your profile at any time.
For clients
Do clients pay any fees?
No. You pay the gig price shown, with no platform fee.
What if the talent doesn't show up?
Your money stays in escrow until you confirm the gig. If the talent doesn't show, you get a full refund.
Can I cancel a booking?
Yes. The cancellation terms are in your agreement before you sign: Flexible, Standard or Strict. Gig Pal explains each one.
Can my company and team use one account?
Yes. Business accounts are verified with your SSM number and can add team members as Owner, Approver or Poster.
Will I get an invoice?
Yes. Receipts and e-invoices are issued automatically for every booking.
