FAQs

How is this different from a bartending agency?

Agencies are middlemen - they mark up rates 40-60%, send whoever they choose, and filter all communication. We're a marketplace. You browse real profiles, message bartenders directly, and negotiate your own rates.

Do bartenders have their own equipment?

Many bartenders bring their own tools and can provide mobile bar setups. Check individual profiles for what each bartender offers. Some specialize in full-service mobile bars.

Are bartenders licensed?

Yes. All bartenders on our platform have valid Nevada alcohol awareness cards (TAM cards). Licensing verification is part of our onboarding process.

Can I hire for a multi-day event?

Absolutely. Message bartenders to discuss multi-day rates. Many offer discounts for extended bookings. You can also build a team of bartenders for larger events.

What if I need to cancel?

Cancellation policies vary by bartender and are shown before booking. Most allow free cancellation 48-72 hours in advance. Check individual terms when booking.

Do you provide the alcohol?

No. Bartenders provide service only. You'll need to arrange alcohol, mixers, and ice separately. Many bartenders can advise on quantities and shopping lists.
