Yes, when a customer buys a service, they are charged a Booking Fee of 3% at checkout.

Yes, once we have successfully launched and worked out all the kinks, we will be expanding across Canada and the United States in 2024 and eventually globally. If you are interested in becoming a customer or supplier outside of the GTA, please send us a message through the Contact Us page and let us know more about you, your services and location.

We purposefully have limited the marketplace to services only, however, in subsequent phases, we will be bringing on physical products and will be partnering with suppliers.

If you can't find a category, we would be happy to add additional categories that fit your services. Send us a note through the Contact Us page and tell us more about the category and sub-categories you would like to sell.

We have leveraged our over 35 plus years in Procurement and Supplier Management to ensure only the best suppliers become authorized to sell their services on ProcureHub. Sorry but we are NOT a match making or networking service.

Yes, however, we are not a Freelancing marketplace. We are focused on SMB businesses that are growing and who have at least 2 plus employees. There are other Freelancing sites that focus on Freelancers that may be better suited for you to sell your services.

As with suppliers, customers must also be verified. We want to ensure the best experience for our suppliers. They are SMB businesses as well and it costs them time and money to list and sell their services. We want all customers to be 100% verified and follow stringent best practices, similar to supplier verification to ensure only legitimate customers are shopping on ProcureHub.

To cancel a service please go into your Dashboard -> Orders. Find the specific order and change the status to Cancelled. Please leave a comment in the note section as to why the service is being cancelled. Also ensure you communicate with the Supplier/Customer prior to cancelling the order.

You always have the option of canceling your order, leaving a review and of course advising the ProcureHub Admin team through Contact Us. It's important that we have qualified Suppliers on the site, so please advise us of any issues.

The Request for Proposal functionality can be used when you have a more complex need for a service or the service you require is not available on the Marketplace. It allows you to detail exactly what you need, your budget and when/where you require the service. You can then receive bids or quotes from multiple suppliers to compare and select from. You can also choose whether or not the Request is Public or Private on the site. If you choose Public then any Supplier with services in the same category you have indicated in your request will see and be able to respond to your Request. If you choose Private then you will be prompted to select which Suppliers you'd like to send the request too. You will also have the ability to share the request to Social or via email with Suppliers outside of the Marketplace!

Unfortunately if a supplier (of any size) does not have any client references we cannot verify them. We need to ensure that all suppliers on the marketplace are registered businesses who have experience providing the services they offer. Our rigorous verification process is what makes our marketplace stand out from others. You can however always become a customer on ProcureHub and when you gain more experience and references submit a verification form to sell on the Marketplace.
