Oneflare closed on 30 June 2026. If you relied on it for work, or you are tired of paying Hipages for leads you have to share, this page is for you. A Soho’s listing is free to start, takes about 15 minutes, and never charges you per enquiry.
What it costs, side by side
| Platform | What it costs | What you get |
|---|---|---|
| Hipages | $139 to $649 a month, plus $25 to $80 per lead | Leads shared with two to four competitors. Credits expire. |
| Airtasker | $9.95 to $59.95 connection fees, plus about 15% service fee | You pay to quote, whether you win the job or not. |
| Oneflare | Retired 30 June 2026 | Nothing. The site redirects to Airtasker. |
| Soho’s Growth | $360 a year, ex GST. No lead fees. | Your listing, your customers, your bookings. |
A tradesperson spending a modest $700 a month on Hipages pays roughly $8,400 a year. Soho’s Growth is about four per cent of that, and the customer belongs to your business rather than to us.
Why we charge this way
SOHO is an old business term. Small office, home office. That is who we built this for, and it is why we charge one flat fee instead of selling your enquiries back to you. You keep the customer. We never resell your leads.
How to switch
- Create your free listing. About 15 minutes. You need an ABN, your categories and the suburbs you cover.
- Get verified. Send us your ABN and one credential, such as a licence or insurance certificate. Verified listings rank above unverified ones.
- Tell your past customers. Invite them to review your listing, so new customers can see your track record.
