Payment collection is not active. Enquiring is free and does not create an invoice, booking, subscription or permission to share your details with an adviser.

One connection, with your agreement

The intended service is a single introduction arranged by the Collective. Both parties must agree to the proposed connection and the exact details to be shared. The provider and adviser then agree and pay for any work directly offsite. The Collective does not collect adviser fees or a percentage of later work.

What you must know before paying

These commercial details are still being finalised. There is no checkout or payment link on this site. Do not send card numbers or banking information through an enquiry.

Invoices and records

Before paid operation, the invoice workflow must be configured for the actual seller and GST position. A GST-registered seller’s taxable fee needs the relevant tax-invoice details. A seller that is not registered must not charge GST or label the document a tax invoice. A draft or a payment screenshot is not proof of payment.

Any payment and invoice records will need an appropriate financial-record retention policy. The current enquiry process is described in the privacy notice. This page does not introduce new payment data collection.

Pro bono is a separate decision

A connection-fee waiver and a volunteer’s agreed no-fee assignment are separate approvals. Neither is guaranteed by applying. Final eligibility and capacity rules are still to be confirmed.

Your rights and responsibilities

Introduction-only does not remove the Collective’s responsibility for its own service and representations. Any future paid terms must preserve rights and remedies that cannot lawfully be excluded. Advisers remain responsible for their own independently agreed work.
