Set Your Consultation Price. Get Paid Before You Reply.
Coaches, consultants, and creators spend hours every week answering questions for free that they'd charge for in a formal engagement. The problem isn't willingness to charge — it's the mechanism. Asking for payment mid-conversation is awkward. FastPass removes that entirely. Set your consultation price once. Share your link. Get paid automatically.

Why consultation pricing is broken for creators
The invoicing overhead
Traditional consultation pricing requires scheduling, invoicing, and chasing payments. Most experts skip it entirely and give advice for free rather than deal with the admin.
The mid-conversation ask
Bringing up payment after a conversation has started feels awkward for both parties. FastPass puts the price upfront — before any words are exchanged.
The 'quick question' that isn't
What starts as a quick question becomes 30 minutes of free consulting. FastPass ensures your consultation price is set and visible before the message even arrives.
How to set your consultation price with FastPass
Set your rate
Create your profile and set your consultation price per message ($1–$10,000). Share your FastPass link in your bio, email signature, or website.
Clients pay and choose their window
They pay upfront via Stripe and choose their response window: 24h, 48h, or 72h. Their message arrives in your dashboard once payment clears.
Reply and earn
Respond within the chosen window and keep 75% of the consultation fee (up to 85% after referring 3 creators). Miss it and the client is automatically refunded. Up to 5 consultations per day.

How to set consultation pricing without feeling awkward
The hardest part of consultation pricing for most experts isn't deciding what to charge — it's saying it out loud. Telling someone "I charge for my advice" mid-conversation feels presumptuous. Many experts avoid it entirely, defaulting to free access out of social discomfort.
FastPass removes this friction completely. You set your consultation price once, in private, before any conversation begins. Your FastPass link communicates the policy for you — automatically, professionally, and without any awkwardness.
When someone clicks your link and sees your rate, they're not surprised or offended. They're self-selecting: either they find the consultation price reasonable and proceed, or they don't and move on. No rejection. No explanation. No uncomfortable negotiation. This is how professional services have always worked — lawyers, doctors, therapists all have stated fees. FastPass simply brings that model to the inbox. Your consultation price is just your rate. The mechanism handles the rest.
Frequently asked questions
Can I change my consultation price after I've set it?
Yes, at any time. Your rate change takes effect immediately for new messages. Previous paid messages are unaffected.
What's the difference between FastPass and a consultation booking tool like Calendly?
Calendly schedules synchronous time — calls, meetings, video sessions. FastPass is asynchronous — written questions and written replies, on your schedule, with no calendar blocking. They solve different problems and work well together.
What happens if I don't reply within the client's chosen window?
The sender receives a 100% automatic refund. FastPass handles this entirely — you don't need to do anything. The consultation simply doesn't happen, and they're not charged.
How does the revenue split work?
FastPass takes a 25% platform fee — you keep 75% of each consultation. Refer 3 creators to FastPass and your fee drops to 15%, meaning you keep 85%.
Is there a daily limit on consultations?
Yes — FastPass currently caps incoming paid messages at 5 per day. This keeps your consultation load manageable while ensuring your replies stay high-quality.
