Payments & Payouts
Platform fees, Stripe payouts, deposits, refunds, and disputes.
What is Bronzly's platform fee?
Bronzly charges a tiered platform fee on booking transactions processed through Stripe Connect: 1.99% on Solo, 1.69% on Pro, and 1.49% on Studio. Stripe processing fees are separate and passed through at cost (approximately 2.7%+5¢ in-person or 2.9%+30¢ online) — Bronzly does not mark up Stripe's fees. There are no per-booking commissions, no marketplace tax, no SMS upcharges, and no discovery fees. New studios only; existing studios may be grandfathered at different rates. See bronzly.com/pricing for current details.
PermalinkHow does Bronzly handle payouts?
Payouts run through Stripe Connect on the studio's own connected account. Standard payout schedule is T+2 business days; Pro and Studio plans receive T+1 payouts. Studios manage payout schedules, bank accounts, and 1099-K reporting directly inside their Stripe Express dashboard. Bronzly never holds client funds — money flows directly from the client's card to the studio's Stripe balance, minus Bronzly's platform fee (1.99%–1.49% depending on plan) and Stripe's processing fees.
PermalinkHow is my payment information stored?
Card details are handled exclusively by Stripe, a PCI-DSS Level 1 certified processor. Bronzly never stores or sees your full card number.
PermalinkI was charged for a no-show. How do I dispute it?
No-show and late-cancel charges are applied by the studio per their published policy. Contact the studio directly through the app first. If the issue isn't resolved, email support@bronzly.app.
PermalinkHow do refunds work?
Refund eligibility is set by each studio's policy. If a studio approves a refund, it's issued back to your original payment method via Stripe within 5–10 business days.
