If you do not agree to these terms, you must not use our site.

OUR WEBSITE SERVICES

Our website provides all of our services in detail. To summarise, we provide the following services:

Directory

We provide a free directory search to find and view profiles of entertainers (e.g. Musicians, Comedians, Clowns, Singers etc.) and services for events (e.g. Florists, Marquee hire, Wedding planners etc). By clicking ‘Create Your Profile', these entertainers & event services have personally created these profiles, and ‘listed' them online paying an agreed premium. This in turn makes them our members, however they can be contacted directly to discuss booking/hiring of their services, with no involvement from us or commissions charged.

Auditions & Gigs

We also provide a service allowing bookers and agencies to create a free account and add auditions/gigs to our website. Only our members may apply.

Advertisers

We also provide a service for companies providing services/goods specifically FOR entertainers (e.g. PA equipment, vocal coaches, costumes etc) to create an account and advertise these services to our members who are entertainers.

For more information on creating accounts, view our ‘Types of Accounts' section below.

OUR MEMBERSHIP

Our two main types of membership include Members that are ‘Entertainers' and Members who offer ‘Event Services'. Throughout these terms we make referral to both of these types as our ‘Members'.

MEMBERSHIP AND JOINING OUR WEBSITE

Designing a profile in all of our accounts is free of charge.

After opening a free account, if you wish to apply for auditions & gigs and/or wish to contact other members you must also have listed at least one profile.

FREE TRIAL

We do occasionally offer free trials via promotional emails/adverts. The provided code must be entered in the space provided when ‘listing' the profile to receive the trial. Any profiles listed by mistake without entering the code cannot be changed to receive the free trial. At the end of the free trial period, unless cancelled by unsubscribing you agree that PayPal will immediately begin to charge recurring payments relative to the free trial period received. For example if a 1 month free trial code was entered, at the end of the trial period our ‘Monthly' recurring subscription cost will occur.

REFUND POLICY

All payments are 'recurring' i.e. automatic renewal.  If however you choose to cancel any of your subscription(s), your account will still remain accessible for future use.

No refund will be given for any remaining subscription that had been paid.  

If you wish to cancel your subscription with us, you must do so before its renewal date.  Once your subscription has automatically recurred, no refund can be given.  If you do not wish for your subscription to automatically recur, please contact us and we will set this up for you.
