Pro FAQs
1) Registration, credentials & the Verified Professional badge chevron_right
Begin with the guided registration form: add contact details, profession, credentials, languages, profile imagery, and service coverage.
Once registration is complete, you can publish structured service listings and start receiving enquiries. Verification is a separate optional step.
- Credential collection: Upload memberships, registration numbers, and insurance so clients can see your qualifications when viewing your profile and services.
- Verification timing: Your profile stays pending until the identity check is paid for and confirmed.
- Badge location: The Verified Professional tick appears on your listings and profile once identity and admin checks pass.
- Re-verification: Triggered when core legal or ownership details change or during periodic audits.
2) Identity verification, admin review & listing discovery chevron_right
The identity check is an optional one-off £19.99 fee (non-refundable), available after profile setup. It can be completed at any time.
- Identity check: Third-party photo ID + selfie flow, then admin review for badge approval.
- Listings & enquiries: All non-restricted professionals can publish structured service listings and receive enquiries whether they are unverified, verification pending, or verified.
- Verified value: Verification adds a verified badge, higher search ranking, and stronger trust signals — but it does not gate listing access.
3) Messaging inbox chevron_right
- Lead-first: Clients contact you first through messaging, then discuss requirements, timeline, and deliverables.
- Service context: Enquiries can include service/package context so you know what they are asking about.
- Notifications: Email and in-app notifications are sent when new enquiries arrive.
- No upfront payment: Clients do not pay upfront — they contact you first and agree the work before any payment.
4) Reviews & profile quality chevron_right
- How reviews help: Reviews improve trust and conversion on your profile.
- Report issues: Flag abusive or inaccurate review content for moderation.
- Profile tips: Keep services, coverage, credentials, and response times up to date.
5) Billing, VAT & invoices chevron_right
- Verification fee: Optional one-off £19.99 identity verification fee (non-refundable). Does not affect your ability to publish listings.
- Payments: MyLittleEyes is a marketplace for advertising your professional services. All payments, invoicing, and billing are handled directly between you and your clients outside the platform.
- Your records: You are responsible for your own VAT, invoicing, and financial records.
6) Payments & service agreements chevron_right
MyLittleEyes is a marketplace that connects clients with professionals. We do not process, hold, or manage payments for services.
- Your responsibility: All pricing, payment terms, invoicing, and collection are agreed and handled directly between you and your client.
- Platform role: We provide messaging to help you connect and discuss requirements, but the commercial relationship is between you and the client.
7) Disputes & resolution chevron_right
As a marketplace, MyLittleEyes does not mediate or resolve disputes between professionals and clients.
- Your responsibility: Any disagreements about scope, quality, payment, or delivery are resolved directly between you and your client.
- Best practice: Agree scope, terms, and deliverables clearly before starting work. Keep written records of all agreements.
- Platform messaging: You can use the messaging history as a reference, but dispute resolution is your responsibility.
8) Data protection & roles (who is the controller?) chevron_right
For client data you collect, you are usually the data controller. MyLittleEyes acts as a processor for platform features such as messaging and document handling.
- Only request data you need for the service.
- Use secure channels for document exchange.
- Delete/archive data when no longer required.
9) Getting started checklist chevron_right
- Create your profile, add coverage and languages, and upload credentials.
- Publish structured service listings as soon as registration is complete.
- Respond quickly to enquiries and agree scope directly with clients.
- Optionally complete the one-off £19.99 identity verification to add a verified badge and higher search ranking.
- Collect reviews and keep profile information current.
