You set the rate. You keep almost all of it.

Stripe processing is an estimate. Payments run on Stripe, and Stripe's fee — typically around 2.9% + 30¢ — comes out of your payout. It varies by country, card type, and currency, so your actual figure will differ. What's fixed: no monthly fee, no cut of your rate, just 10¢ a minute on calls you actually take.

Illustrative examples — not real creators.
Wherever your audience already is.
Most creators just share the link. If you have your own site, you can embed the whole thing instead. Either way the audience stays yours — there's no marketplace in between.
Share your link — no website needed

Live in three steps
About 10 minutes — pause anytime and pick up where you left off.
Create your profile
Your name, a photo, and a short intro. This becomes your public page and embeddable widget.
Describe your service
What you offer, in your words — chat, advice, feedback, a lesson. Set per-minute or flat pricing.
Connect payouts
Link Stripe whenever you're ready. You can publish and share your page first; calls and bookings switch on once payouts are set.
Questions, answered
How much does it cost?
Setting up your page is free — no monthly fee. MinuteTalk takes a small usage-based fee on paid calls, so we only earn when you do.
Do I need credentials or a big following?
No. MinuteTalk doesn't gate on certificates or follower counts — chat, lived experience, hobbies, and informal teaching are all welcome. Our Acceptable Use Policy and active moderation define the boundaries instead.
Can I publish my page before setting up payouts?
Yes. You can publish, share, and embed your page before connecting Stripe. Booking buttons stay visible but disabled until payouts are ready — then they switch on automatically.
How does embedding work?
After your page is published, you get a copy-paste snippet from your dashboard. Add the domains you want to embed on to your allowlist, paste the snippet into your site, and the booking widget renders right there.
Who can join?
Creators 18 or older, in countries supported by Stripe payouts, who agree to the Acceptable Use Policy. Adult content and regulated professional services (medical, legal, financial advice) aren't permitted.
Is it safe to offer this publicly?
Every profile and service listing is reviewed before it goes live — nothing auto-publishes. Everyone on the platform has agreed to the same Acceptable Use Policy and attested they're 18 or older, and accounts that breach it are suspended. You choose what you offer and what you charge; your page shows only what you put on it.
