Is bop an alternative to Wecasa?

Bop does not replace job matching — it makes you independent of it: with your own website, regular-customer management, invoices, and help with official paperwork, you build your own business, with customers who book directly with you. That way every job belongs fully to you, with no commission.

What does Wecasa cost for cleaners?

Wecasa funds itself through a commission on every job it brings you — you receive a fixed share of the customer price (as of July 2026, according to the provider). With bop, there is no commission: you pay a fixed monthly price, no matter how much you earn.

Do I need a registered business for Wecasa and for bop?

Yes, for both: in Austria, you work on booking platforms like Wecasa as a self-employed person — with your own trade license ("house care") and SVS insurance. bop helps you through exactly that, step by step.

Who owns the customer relationship on Wecasa?

The customer relationship runs through the platform: booking, price, and payment are handled by Wecasa. With bop, your customers belong to you — they book directly with you, at your prices, and stay with you even if you switch tools.

Can I use Wecasa and bop at the same time?

Technically, nothing stops you — bop works no matter where your jobs come from. But our goal is that you will not need a booking platform at all: with your own website, regular customers, and clean paperwork, you get jobs directly — at the full price, with no commission.

Platform comparisons

bop vs. Wecasa: Platform Jobs or Your Own Business?

What is Wecasa — and what is bop?

Wecasa is a booking platform from France, active in Vienna, Austria since 2025: households book cleaning there, you accept jobs, and Wecasa keeps a commission on every job. bop is not a booking platform — it is your back office: your own website, appointments, invoices, taxes, official letters — for a fixed monthly price, in your language. So the two compete less than it might seem — they answer different questions: "Where does my next job come from?" versus "How does my work become my own business?"

What is that commission really worth?

A booking platform earns from every job — permanently, even on the fiftieth appointment with the same regular customer. That is fair for matching you with new customers, but expensive for relationships that should really belong to you by now. Do the math yourself: with regular customers, the commission adds up month after month — a fixed monthly price, on the other hand, stays the same no matter how full your calendar is. The detailed breakdown: Platform or your own business?

And where do jobs come from without a platform?

Through your own website with prices and contact details — anyone who finds you there books directly with you.
Through your Google Business profile — so you show up when someone in your district searches for "cleaner".
Through recommendations — every satisfied household tells others, and that recommendation belongs to you, not to an app.

The difference

Building your own customers takes some patience at the start — but everyone you win this way stays with you: at the full price, on your terms, with no one else taking a cut.

Who is bop the right choice for?

For anyone who does not see cleaning as a casual side job, but as their own business: with their own prices (typically 24–30 €/hour in Vienna), their own customers, and no fear of paperwork. bop guides you through business registration^[1] and SVS^[2], writes your invoices, and explains official letters in your language.
