For tradespeople
Being good at your trade should be enough to be found.
Once you've earned the Hallmark Standard, your profile stays visible for one flat monthly membership. No per-lead charges, no bidding against three other traders for the same enquiry — just recognition for credibility you've already proven.
A different bet than the lead-gen platforms
Most trade directories charge you every time a homeowner shows interest. Ambatana charges a one-time joining fee, then one flat monthly price after that.

Questions
Is there really no per-lead charge?
None. Job-quote requests are unlimited on the one plan — your cost doesn't change whether you get five enquiries a month or fifty.
What's the joining fee for?
It covers the nine independent checks run when you apply — identity, qualifications, insurance, and legal history, each confirmed directly with the people who issued them. It's charged once, when you're first Hallmarked, not on every renewal.
What happens if I fail a Hallmark check?
Your application won't go live, or an existing listing is paused, until the failing check is resolved. There's no partial or discounted listing for an incomplete check.
Can I cancel anytime?
Yes. Cancelling stops the monthly subscription going forward — the joining fee already paid isn't refunded, since the checks it covers have already been done.
Do reviews come with me if I leave?
No — reviews are tied to verified jobs on Ambatana specifically, so they stay on the platform. We'd recommend keeping a record of your own reviews independently as well.
