How it works

From sign-up to a paid lesson, step by step.

  1. 01

    Sign up in the app

    Download the SkillBridge Connect app, register with your email and choose Teacher or Learner. Teachers complete a profile with their name, photo, qualifications and a short intro video, and confirm they are 18 or older.

  2. 02

    List or request

    Teachers list a skill and set their own price. Learners browse teachers or post what they want to learn.

  3. 03

    Request and accept

    A learner sends a lesson request. The teacher accepts it, and they agree a time in the in-app chat.

  4. 04

    Pay securely

    The learner pays inside the app by card, bank transfer or USSD through our payment partner, Paystack. The money is held safely until the lesson is done.

How payments work

Every payment is processed securely and held until the lesson is done.

  1. 1

    Learner pays

    Payment is made in naira at checkout inside the app, currently processed by Paystack. SkillBridge Connect Limited receives it into its Paystack account. We do not accept cash or payments outside the app.

  2. 2

    Held until the lesson

    The payment is held in escrow while the lesson takes place, so learners are protected and teachers know the money is there.

  3. 3

    Teacher is credited

    After the lesson is completed, the teacher's earnings are credited to their in-app wallet. SkillBridge Connect keeps a 20% commission.

  4. 4

    Teacher withdraws

    Teachers withdraw their wallet balance to their own registered Nigerian bank account.

Built on trust

Money and reputation, both handled carefully.

Escrow protection

Payments are held securely until a lesson is confirmed complete — no upfront risk for learners, no chasing payment for teachers.

Verified profiles

Every teacher completes a profile with their name, photo, qualifications and an intro video, and confirms they are 18 or older. Learners add a profile photo.

Honest reviews

Both sides rate each other after every session, so reputations are earned in both directions.

Whichever side you're on
