How Do Commission Fees Work?


Each job category has a commission fee attached to it. For instance, an MOT has a £8.06 commission fee, while the commission for a clutch replacement is higher. All commission rates are flat, so they don’t change depending on the price you quote.

You won’t be charged extra commission for:
  • Additional work the driver asks you to do after posting the job.

  • Future customer retention (if a driver comes back to you directly).

How to find the commission on a job before applying

If you choose to quote on jobs manually, you can find out the commission fee before you send the quote to the customer. Here’s how.


On the homepage, click the ‘apply for job’ button next to the job you want to win.




A box will pop up on your screen, allowing you to choose a message template and tell the driver what is included in your quote (for example, you may offer a courtesy car).




Scroll down to the bottom of this box to enter your quote. As you can see from the image below, the commission for the job is indicated below your quote price. We will always tell you the commission before you send out a quote.


Other ways to find commission fees

If you use Auto Quotes, you won’t have the same opportunity to view the commission on every quote before it goes out. But don’t worry - there’s another way to get to know the fees for job categories. 


From the homepage, click ‘my jobs’ in the navigation bar. This page is split into three categories:

  • Job alerts that you haven’t quoted for.

  • Jobs you have applied for.

  • Jobs you have won.




You can find information about previous commissions in the ‘jobs won’ tab. Every job has the commission fee displayed next to it - even those in the 'job alerts' tab that you haven't provided a quote for yet.
