Every booking, held in escrow

Book event serviceswith money in escrow.

Every booking is governed by a co-signed Agreement. Both sides put real money in escrow, released only on completion — the trust gap that informal, off-platform bookings leave open, closed.

  • Co-signed Agreement

    Both parties sign. Immutable PDF with a hash.

  • Dual deposits in escrow

    Customer downpayment + vendor good-faith deposit — both held.

  • Real recourse

    Vendor no-shows? Refund plus deposit — no chat screenshots.

  • Licensed escrow custody

    The platform never holds funds. Released only on completion.

How escrow works

Three steps. Zero guesswork.

Every booking on Gigspact runs the same predictable path — no hidden fine print, no surprise rulings.

  1. Book & co-sign

    Customer and vendor sign one immutable Agreement covering terms, refunds, and completion proof.

  2. Funds move to escrow

    A licensed escrow partner holds the customer downpayment + vendor good-faith deposit. Gigspact never touches the money.

  3. Released on completion

    Vendor scans the customer QR at the event. Funds move within 24 hours. If something goes wrong, the Agreement decides.

Per-booking Agreement

Both parties co-sign. PDF with a hash. Immutable.

Financial terms, cancellation rules, proof-of-service requirements all live in one signed document.

Dual deposits

Customer downpayment + vendor good-faith deposit. Both held.

A licensed escrow provider holds the funds; the platform never does. Released only on completion, transferred only on documented defection.

Real recourse

Vendor no-shows? You get refund plus deposit. Customer cancels? Rules in the Agreement decide.

Outcomes are deterministic. No buried fine print, no surprise rulings.

What people say

Trust earned booking by booking.

Real conversations from real Philippine events. No paid reviews — every quote comes from a sealed, completed booking.

  • “The vendor cancelled two weeks out. Their good-faith deposit came back to me the same day — I actually made an outbound booking with a replacement instead of chasing a refund.”

    Andrea D.

    Bride · Iloilo City

  • “Bookings are locked in before we prep. I stopped losing a whole Saturday to no-shows, and the payout hits before Monday.”

    Miguel R.

    Catering vendor · Cebu

  • “I finally read what I was signing. The Agreement is one page, in plain English, with the money terms up top. No screenshots-as-contracts anymore.”

    Joanna L.

    18th birthday host · Quezon City

  • “Customers who put money in escrow show up. The deposit filters out the tire-kickers so I quote fewer inquiries and book more of them.”

    Rafael S.

Questions people ask

Read before your first booking.

  • Where does the money actually sit?

    With a licensed, regulated escrow provider. Gigspact never has custody of your funds — we only trigger release when both sides confirm completion, or when the Agreement rules do.

  • What happens if the vendor no-shows?

    You get your downpayment back plus the vendor’s good-faith deposit — same day, no back-and-forth. That deposit is the vendor’s skin in the game.

  • What if I need to cancel?

    The cancellation policy is co-signed in the Agreement before either side pays. Whatever you agreed to at booking is what applies — no surprise fees.

  • How is completion confirmed?

    On event day, the vendor scans a private QR code from the customer. That scan is the completion signal; funds move within 24 hours.

  • How does Gigspact make money?

    A small platform fee on the customer downpayment, disclosed on every quote. No fee on the vendor’s good-faith deposit — that returns to them intact on completion.

  • Can I use Gigspact outside Metro Manila?

    Yes — vendors are onboarded PH-wide. Filter by region on the browse page to see who’s active in your city.
