Step 1: Decide what to charge

Pick a model: a per-minute rate for open-ended calls, or a fixed price per session (for example a 30- or 60-minute consultation). If you are unsure, start with a fixed session price you would be happy to be paid for your time.

Step 2: Create a paid booking page

On PayCall.co, create a free page, add your services and set your rates. Your page becomes one link that shows what you offer and lets clients book and pay in the same step.

Step 3: Share your link and get paid

Put your link in your bio, email signature and socials. When someone asks for a call, send the link — they book, pay upfront, and you meet on a paid call. Payouts go straight to your account, minus a flat 12% fee.
