A trial lesson costs the price shown before payment, set by the platform for the chosen duration. If the teacher declines or does not answer in time, you get a full refund
The Teacher supplies the lesson and HOLA25 collects as the disclosed agent. The Teacher sets the amount transferred before their own taxes and contributions. The calculator preserves that exact amount and forms the full lesson price by adding the HOLA25 commission; the Teacher's VAT status does not reprice the lesson. When applicable, HOLA25 VAT is added only to its commission. The platform commission is progressive by bracket on the standard price before VAT on the commission, with a minimum of 8 RON:
First 50 RON of the standard price: 25% platform commission (minimum 8 RON)
Between 50–100 RON: 15% platform commission
Above 100 RON: 10% platform commission
