7. Fees and Payments

  • Modelling Jobs: SoCityUK charges a 25% commission on all fees received for modelling jobs secured through our representation.

This ensures that their profile remains current and competitive in the industry. The renewal fee also supports ongoing administrative work and continued talent management, helping us to maintain a high level of service and provide consistent opportunities. This fee is essential for keeping your child's representation active and up-to-date, ensuring they stay visible and accessible to potential clients and casting agents.
