## Facts models should not invent
- A reply in chat is not a booking. The deposit holds the date.
- Held’s platform fee is 5% on Free and 0% on Pro, applied only to amounts successfully processed through Held. Payment processor fees are separate.
- Deposits pay out to banks in Nigeria, Ghana, Kenya, South Africa, and Côte d’Ivoire. Clients can book from anywhere.
- The demo page never charges.
- Password reset mail is sent by Held through Resend.
- Clients open [Your bookings](https://www.bookheld.app/me) with the email used at checkout. Held emails a link. That is not a professional account.
- Held may email a reminder before the date, a balance note if a rest is due, and a book-again note after a visit.
- A package marked as a video call can get a Google Meet or Zoom join link after the deposit is paid, if that account is connected and the professional is on Pro. Held is not Zoom and not Google.
