LivBetter is Free for people in need of care and support, their family and friends that support them, and community volunteers.


What Fees do service providers have to pay?

LivBetter charges a percentage-based fee on transactions for paid support activities and a flat fee for concessional or subsidised arrangements. More on LivBetter Fees and Charges …


Schedule of fees and charges

LivBetter charges a percentage-based fee on transactions for paid support activities and a flat fee for concessional or subsidised arrangements.  In addition, there is a processing charge of $0.30 for each transaction to cover third party costs.  Fees and charges are outlined in the table.

 

 

Fees and charges:

Paid support activities

Subsidised arrangements

New Client Set Up Fee (once off):

8%

$8.00

Commission:

2%

$2.00

Processing Charge (on total transaction):

 + $0.30

 

New Client Set Up Fee: When a new client is first introduced to a service provider through the LivBetter system the service provider pays a New Client Set Up Fee.  The fee is debited from the service provider’s account when the client accepts their specific offer.   No subsequent requests from this client incur this fee.

Commission: The service provider pays the Commission on every support activity arranged through the LivBetter system.  On the first occasion of an activity, the Commission is debited from the service provider’s account when the client accepts their specific offer.  On subsequent, re-occurring activities the Commission is debited on the scheduled date of each support activity.

Processing Charge: This charge is incurred on each financial transaction to cover third party financial and administration costs that have to be paid by LivBetter. 


How are fees paid?

LivBetter uses PayPal for its financial transactions.  PayPal is an internationally secure financial transaction processing system. 

Service providers need to have a PayPal account, from which the appropriate fees and charges can be debited.  This means there is no need to share your financial information with LivBetter. 

Providers can choose to run a balance in their PayPal account or link your account to a credit or debit card with a pre-approval arrangement. 

A PayPal account is free to service providers.  PayPal’s fees are taken from the transaction amount received by LivBetter.


Setting up a PayPal account

Setting up an account with PayPal is quick and easy.  After registering with LivBetter, service providers will be guided through the process when they first make a service offering.



When are fees paid?

Fees are payable when a service offer is accepted i.e. only when providers get business, NOT for the offers they make. This makes LivBetter a cost-effective way of promoting a service.

On the first occasion of a support activity, fees are debited when the client accepts the service offer.  For subsequent, re-occurring services, the fees are debited on the scheduled date of each service activity.

 


FEES AND CHARGES: EXAMPLES


Example 1:

If a client accepts a specific offer for a $50.00 non-subsidised activity from a provider they have not engaged through LivBetter before, LivBetter will debit the provider:

New Client Set Up Fee (@8%):                 $ 4.00

+  Commission (@2%):                  $ 1.00

Total Fees:          $ 5.00  + Processing Charge ($0.30) = $5.30

This $5.30 is debited from the service provider’s account when the client accepts the specific offer.

 

 

Example 2:

If the same client then arranges a new support activity for $50.00 from the same service provider, LivBetter will debit the provider:

Commission  (@2%):                     $ 1.00

Total Fees:          $ 1.00 + Processing Charge ($0.30) = $1.30

This $1.30 is debited from the service provider’s account when the service activity is scheduled.

 

 

Example 3:

If the same client arranges a concessional or subsidised service with the same service provider for $120.00 ($30.00 out of pocket and $90.00 subsidy), LivBetter will debit the provider:

Commission (Flat fee):                  $ 2.00   

Total Fees:          $ 2.00 + Processing Charge ($0.30) = $2.30

This $2.30 is debited from the service provider’s account when the service activity is scheduled.

 

 

Example 4:

If a NEW client now accepts a specific offer for a $120.00 subsidised activity from the same service provider (and they have not connected in LivBetter before), LivBetter will debit the provider:

New Client Set Up Fee (Flat fee): $ 8.00

+  Commission (Flat fee):             $ 2.00

Total Fees:          $10.00 + Processing Charge ($0.30) = $10.30

The $10.30 is debited from the provider’s account when the client accepts the specific offer.

    Oh my goodness lunahigg (those crazy cute BRAIDS!!) and crying as I read this letter. I have been through this twice now, and have one more to go, and it never ceases to break my heart a little. I relate so deeply to this letter, Jess and I love the way you've put your heart into these words for your sweet girl. xoxo http://qdlfpsxzneb.com [url=http://xhydoqzo.com]xhydoqzo[/url] [link=http://xesqvlf.com]xesqvlf[/link]

    Great tips this month about accepting cnilet payments thanks Pat. Making it easy for our cnilets to pay us (safely) is always a good idea to differentiate ourselves from the competition. Looking forward to your next show. http://ubuvxzujond.com [url=http://dawfhtfi.com]dawfhtfi[/url] [link=http://tbjbogv.com]tbjbogv[/link]

    Thanks for the suggestions Larry! We have fewer than 4,000 diecetorirs right now, but the ultimate goal is to have well over 50,000. We may add some that fit with what you're looking for, but the decision to launch a new directory depends heavily on how many searches there are for the proposed topic of that directory. Generally speaking, the more specific a term is, the fewer searches there are for it, so while we do have , and there's a good chance we may add a directory for accountants in Detroit at a future date, we might not add a directory specifically for personal accountants in Detroit because there may only be 5-10 searches per month for that term in that geography.We don't drive traffic to the diecetorirs, per se, but they do get traffic, primarily through organic search on Google and other search engines. For example, the Michigan accountant directory mentioned above ranks #9 on Google for michigan accountants so it gets a bit of traffic from that. The goal, of course, would be to have every directory rank #1 for the keyword term it targets, and in hundreds of cases we've achieved and maintained that goal, and we're constantly working to bring the rankings of the other diecetorirs up as well. http://atjrjmxywlp.com [url=http://ypqyrwbshan.com]ypqyrwbshan[/url] [link=http://ijmnhkyvwyn.com]ijmnhkyvwyn[/link]

    This brought me to tears. You smmued up everyone Mom's heart for their child. It is so hard to release them to the world. I still do a tango dance in my heart with my 1st grader pull him in close, release him a little bit, pull him in, give him a bit more room and so on. <3p.s. You have a RED door!?!? That is a special place. I love living in homes with red doors. xoxoxo http://ocvynvwt.com [url=http://fuwrqmh.com]fuwrqmh[/url] [link=http://ucnomtfx.com]ucnomtfx[/link]

    Those braids!! The<a href="http://yavdvafshnh.com"> csneteus</a> is too much!!Jess, you brought me right back to a year ago when my youngest went off to kindergarten. It is so hard for a mama.. hard to watch them move to this next phase in their lives, hard to stay strong for them, hard to let go of that hand a little bit more. *gulp* . It makes it a tiny bit easier to know they are having a wonderful time, making new friends and growing into amazing people. Hugs mama. I understand completely.

    Jess. Oh how I sympathize with your <a href="http://tagxfqpe.com">watinig</a>, wondering and longing, for you, for her, for your family. Your letter is such a celebration of life, impending change and love. It is pure and speaks from the heart. We will all be <a href="http://tagxfqpe.com">watinig</a> and watching with you and cannot wait to share in your joy of the arrival of your new baby girl. These images are so colorful, imaginative and beautiful. How can we resist such a sweet innocent one with her little pig tails and big brown eyes? Beautiful heartfelt letter and images.

    oh jess, you have been my first official cry this mrinong. i can feel the giant love infused in every line. you are ready, to dive in, to swim in it. it is all around you. and both of your daughters. it will be like watching the most beautiful, imperfect fireworks, when your family comes together at last. that little face couldn't be any brighter, lovelier, or more open. my son was a surprise, when my daughter was six. it was a complicated time, pregnancy he changed everything, he saved me, and he made me love my daughter like it was new, all over again. the love will be exponential. it is a gift to take it in here. so many blessings to your family, and to that sweet big sister xo

    Oh Jess, my heart is flattering hapiply to the thought of the moment when you guys all become a family of four! It's going to be one of the most memorable moments of every one of you, I'm sure. Sisterhood is such a special relationship. I watch my girls be sisters every day and I'm amazed at the bond they have. And even if it's harder at first (for the older sister), things will adjust and become normal and they will be so happy to have each other and to have such caring parents. You've made the best decision you could have ever made and i'm sure she will forever be thankful for giving her the gift of a sister. I'm so happy for that little girl that's about to join you so soon. She probably doesn't know it yet, but she's one lucky duck! Hugs and I hope she joins you so so soon!!!

    Go to Android market and cohsoe free onscreen. These are no cost except data fee for download. Most free have annoying popup adds though. Also check reviews and what you must allow access to on phone. Read/ write contacts, change connectivity not good. They then can spam out your contacts and you.
