Launch questions

What to know before access opens

How does Pontio verify professionals?

We screen every profile before it goes live, verify phone and email, apply additional checks for specific categories, and review each new service listing. Confirmed qualifications earn a certified badge.

Which services will be available at launch?

Pontio launches with everyday home and personal services, starting with categories such as electricians, plumbers, home cleaning, babysitting, dog walking, and similar local needs.

Where is Pontio launching first?

Pontio launches in Bucharest first. We will expand to more cities in Romania as more professionals join and local coverage grows.

Can I book already, or is access opening soon?

Pontio is currently in early access. You can join the waitlist now to hear first when the app launches, when access opens in your area, and when we share updates or promotional offers.

How do prices work? Do I know the price before booking?

Professionals set their own prices and show them on their services. Some services have a fixed price you see upfront; for jobs that need assessing first, you describe the job, the professional sends you an offer, and you approve the exact total before the booking exists. Any later price change needs your agreement.

Is Pontio free? How does Pontio make money?

Joining and using Pontio is free, and there is no Pontio fee in the first phase — you pay the professional directly, and professionals keep what they charge. Later, Pontio may introduce a platform fee for completed bookings, per category; any fee will always be shown clearly before you confirm a booking.

How do reviews work on Pontio?

A review can only be left after a completed booking through Pontio — no anonymous or paid reviews. That means ratings build up from real appointments after launch, and professionals can reply publicly to the reviews they receive.

Who is responsible for the service — Pontio or the professional?

Pontio is the platform that connects you: we review profiles before they go live and keep booking and communication in one place. The service contract is directly between you and the professional, who is responsible for the work itself. If something goes wrong, you can report it to the Pontio team from the app.
