Create Your First Service Listing
Follow these 10 steps to create a clear, professional service listing that gives customers confidence to book you.
Create a Service Customers Want to Book
Your service listing is what customers see when deciding whether to book you. A good photo, clear service name, helpful description, fair price and accurate availability can make a big difference.
This guide walks you through creating your first ChoreSnap service and gives you practical tips and examples to help your listing stand out.
Add Your Service Photos
Your first image is the cover photo for your service and one of the first things customers will see.

Your cover photo is displayed in different formats throughout the app. It appears as a rectangular image on your service page and is cropped to a square when customers browse services.
Best practices for your cover photo
- Use a bright, clear and high-quality photo.
- Choose an image that clearly relates to the service you offer.
- Show the result customers can expect from your service.
- Keep the most important part of the photo near the centre.
- Avoid unnecessary text, logos or distracting objects.
- Make sure the photo accurately represents the service you provide.
For cleaning services
Try to show customers the result of your work rather than simply the tools you use. A bright and spotless kitchen, bathroom or living room will usually make a stronger cover photo than a picture of cleaning products, a vacuum cleaner or a mop and bucket.
Add more photos
You can upload multiple photos to your service. Additional photos appear in the gallery on your service page and can show customers more examples of the quality and type of work you provide.
If you have suitable photos of your own previous work, these are a great way to show customers what they can expect when they book you.
Choose a Service Name
Your Service Name is the title customers see when browsing and viewing your service.
Keep your service name short, specific and easy to understand. Customers should be able to tell what they are booking without having to read the description first.

Instead of: The Best Professional and Affordable Home Cleaning Service in Leiden
Use: Professional Home Cleaning
Instead of: Cleaning Service
Use: Deep Home Cleaning
Choose a Category & Subcategory
The Category and Subcategory help customers find the right service.
Select Cleaning as your Category. At launch, ChoreSnap is focused on cleaning services, so Cleaning is currently the only available category.
Choose the Subcategory that best fits your service
- Airbnb Cleaning — Cleaning and preparing a short-term rental between guests.
- Deep Cleaning — A more thorough clean beyond normal regular cleaning.
- Home Cleaning — Regular or general cleaning of a customer’s home.
- Laundry & Ironing — Washing, drying, folding and/or ironing clothes and household laundry.
- Moving-Out Cleaning — Cleaning a home after moving out or before the next occupant.
- Office Cleaning — Cleaning offices, workspaces and other business premises.
- Window Cleaning — Cleaning interior and/or exterior windows.
Choose the Cities You Serve
Your service will only be available to customers in the cities you select.

1. Add the cities where you work
- Press Add Cities.
- Enter the name of a city where you can provide services.
- Press Add.
- Repeat this for each city where you are willing to work.
2. Select the cities for this service
Adding a city to your list does not automatically make your service available there. Open the city dropdown and check the box next to each city where you want to offer this particular service.
Example
You may have Leiden, Oegstgeest and Voorschoten saved in your city list. Your Home Cleaning service could be available in all three, while your Window Cleaning service could be available only in Leiden and Oegstgeest.
Set Your Service Status
Status determines whether customers can currently book your service.
Active
Choose Active when you want your service to be visible and available for customers to book.Inactive
Choose Inactive when you temporarily do not want customers to book this service.Inactive is useful if you want to take a break or temporarily stop offering a particular service without deleting the listing.
Set Your Price
Choose whether your service is charged by the hour or at a fixed price.

Charging by the hour
If customers should pay based on how many hours they book, enter your price for one hour excluding VAT. ChoreSnap will automatically add 21% VAT for the customer.
Example: Enter €25.00 to set your hourly service price at €25.00 excluding VAT.
When setting the Duration in the next step, choose 1 hour 0 minutes.
Charging a fixed price
You can also offer a service for one fixed price. Enter the fixed service price excluding VAT; ChoreSnap will automatically add 21% VAT for the customer.
Example: A Moving-Out Cleaning could have a fixed service price of €150.00 excluding VAT.
In that case, set the Duration in the next step to 0 hours 0 minutes.
Add a Discount — Optional
You can add a percentage discount to promote your service. The discount is applied to your service price, so it reduces the amount you charge.
Service price: €25.00
Discount: 20%
Discounted service price: €20.00
What will you receive?
The price you enter is your service price excluding VAT. ChoreSnap adds 21% VAT to your service price, and the customer pays that VAT on top of the amount you set.
You receive your service price including VAT. ChoreSnap also charges the customer a 5% service fee on the price excluding VAT, plus 21% VAT on that service fee. The ChoreSnap service fee is paid by the customer and does not reduce the amount you receive.
Service price (excluding VAT): €25.00
VAT on your service (21%): €5.25
You receive: €30.25
ChoreSnap service fee (5%, including VAT): €1.51
Customer pays: €31.76
In this example, you set your price at €25.00 excluding VAT. The customer pays €30.25 for your service including VAT, plus the ChoreSnap service fee. You receive the full €30.25 for your service.
Set the Duration
Duration tells ChoreSnap how your service should be booked.

If you charge by the hour
Set the Duration to 1 hour 0 minutes. Customers can then choose how many hours they want to book.
If you charge a fixed price
If your price covers the complete service rather than an hourly rate, set the Duration to 0 hours 0 minutes.
Fixed-price services with a set duration
If a fixed-price service includes a specific amount of time, enter the actual duration.
Example: A 2-hour Deep Cleaning package for €70.00.
Price: €70.00
Duration: 2 hours 0 minutes
Write Your Service Description
Explain exactly what customers can expect when they book your service.

Start with “I will…”
A simple way to write a strong service description is to begin with “I will…”. This keeps the description focused on what the customer will receive.
For example: I will clean your home using eco-friendly cleaning products, including vacuuming, mopping, dusting and cleaning your kitchen and bathroom.
What should your Description include?
- What will you do? Clearly describe the service.
- What is included? Mention the main tasks the customer can expect.
- What experience do you have? Mention relevant years of experience or the number of customers you have helped.
- What makes your service different? Mention things such as eco-friendly products, specialist equipment or particular attention to detail.
- Is there anything the customer needs to know? Mention important conditions, limitations or requirements.
Show customers your experience
Where possible, include something specific and truthful, such as:
I have more than 5 years of professional cleaning experience.
I have provided cleaning services for more than 50 happy customers.
Example of a strong description
I will clean your home and leave it fresh, tidy and ready to enjoy. The service includes vacuuming, mopping, dusting, cleaning surfaces and cleaning your kitchen and bathroom. I have more than 5 years of professional cleaning experience and have helped over 50 happy customers. I bring my own eco-friendly cleaning products and will focus on the areas that matter most to you. If you have any specific cleaning requests, you can share them with me through the chat after completing your booking.
Hourly services
If you charge by the hour, explain what you will work on during the time booked. Avoid promising that an entire home or a specific list of tasks will always be completed within one hour.
Fixed-price services
If you charge a fixed price, clearly explain what is included in that price and any limits that apply.
Choose Where the Service Takes Place
Select whether you travel to the customer or the customer travels to you.

Customer’s Address
Select this if you travel to the customer to provide the service at their home or another address they provide. For most cleaning services, this will be the correct option.My Address
Select this if customers come to your location to receive the service.Before you can select My Address
Go to Edit Profile → Enter Address and save the address where you provide services. If you have not entered an address in your profile, My Address cannot be selected.
Set When You Are Available
Your Availability determines exactly when customers can book your service.

Anytime
Choose Anytime if customers can book this service at any time. For most providers, we recommend setting your actual Working Hours instead.
Set your Working Hours
Press Set Working Hours, then use Edit Time Slots to select your availability for each day of the week.

Available times are shown as individual one-hour slots such as 09:00 AM, 10:00 AM and 11:00 AM. Select every individual time slot during which you want to be available.
For example, if you want to work continuously from 09:00 AM until 05:00 PM, select each hourly slot in between. Selecting only 09:00 AM and 05:00 PM does not make you available during the hours between them.
Use “Copy To” to save time
If you work the same hours on several days, set your time slots for one day and press Copy To to copy those slots to other days.
Select “During Working Hours”
Once your time slots are ready, return to your service and select During Working Hours.
Keep your availability accurate and update it whenever your schedule changes. This helps prevent cancellations and lets customers find times when you are genuinely available.
You’re Ready to Go!
Once you are happy with your service details, press Save.
Congratulations — your first ChoreSnap service listing is now live.
Customers can now discover your service and, if your Status is set to Active, you can look forward to receiving your first booking.
And you don’t have to stop at one listing. If you offer different types of services, create a separate listing for each one. The more relevant services you list, the more opportunities customers have to discover and book you.
