Before your profile can go live and start getting booked, it needs enough information for clients to trust and choose you. ARRIVE asks you to finish a short list of required items before you submit your profile for review.
Required to go live
Finish all of these before you submit:
- A profile photo.
- A bio that tells clients who you are and what you offer.
- Your location (city & state).
- A category or specialty.
- At least one service for clients to book.
- A connected payout account (Stripe) so you can be paid.
Strengthen your profile
Optional, but they make your profile stronger and easier to find:
- A cover image or media sample.
- Your skills & instruments.
- The event types and service areas you cover.
- A verified phone number.
- Reviews.
- The verified badge.
When you can submit
Once the required items are done, your profile is ready to go live and you can submit it for review. The submit step shows exactly what is contributing to your score and what is still missing — see Your profile score.
Review and approval
When you submit, our team reviews your profile (and each service) before it goes live, so clients only see complete, accurate profiles. Once approved, your profile is public and bookable.
Editing your live profile
You can update your profile any time, and it stays live while you do. Changes to your bio, headline, and featured quote are reviewed by our team after they publish — if a change doesn't meet our guidelines, we may revert it and let you know why.
Contact details such as phone numbers, email addresses, or off-platform payment info aren't allowed anywhere on your profile and are blocked when you save. Keeping your bookings and messages on ARRIVE is what keeps you covered by our protections.
