Payments & Payouts
Platform fees, Stripe payouts, deposits, refunds, and disputes.
What is Bronzly's platform fee?
Bronzly charges a tiered platform fee on eligible booking transactions processed through Stripe Connect: 1.69% on Solo, 1.39% on Pro, and 1.09% on Studio. The fee base excludes tips and taxes unless checkout explicitly says otherwise. 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. Beta/Founders accounts keep their own 1.49% rate. 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 where Stripe supports it. Studios manage payout schedules, bank accounts, and 1099-K reporting directly inside their Stripe Express dashboard. Bronzly never holds client funds — money flows through Stripe Connect to the studio's Stripe balance, net of the applicable Bronzly platform fee and Stripe 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.
