Founding makers · Oslo
Teach your craft to a full room.
Laga finds the people, takes the booking and the payment, and sends them to your studio. You just teach. We're new in Oslo, and we're looking for the first makers to build this with.
Why host on Laga?
You already know how to teach. The rest — finding people, taking the money, chasing the ones who don't show up — is what we take off your hands.
groups
We bring the people
Filling the seats is our job, not yours. We market your workshop across Oslo — search, Instagram, gift cards and company team-building — so you're not the one posting about it every week.
payments
You keep 78%, with no invoice from us
You set the price. Laga buys your workshop at 78% of your listed price (excl. MVA) and resells it under our own name. No commission charged to you, no listing fee, no subscription. If nothing sells, you owe nothing.

No admin, no chasing
Bookings, payments, confirmations, cancellations, refunds, participant messages and your invoices are handled by the platform. You get a list of who's coming, and when.
From first message to first booking
No contract to sign upfront, and nothing to pay to find out whether it works.
1
Tell us about your craft
A short profile: what you make, where you work, and what you'd like to teach. We verify every host before anything goes live — that protects you as much as the participants.
2
Put up one workshop
Photos, price, address, dates, group size, cancellation policy. Start with a single date and see how it goes. You keep full control of all of it.
3
Teach, then get paid
We pay out every two weeks for the sessions that have actually taken place, straight to your bank account via Stripe. You invoice us, or let us generate the invoice for you.

A direct line, not a support queue
Florian answers every message himself, and founding makers get a real say in what gets built next. That won't be true in a year.

Where we actually are
You're being asked to trust a marketplace you've never heard of, by someone you've never met. So here are the facts, without the marketing.

We are new
We're onboarding our very first hosts right now. If you join this autumn, you will be among the first. We're not going to pretend there's already a crowd here.

The platform is built and live
Booking, payment, cancellation, refunds, host payouts and invoicing all work today. This is not a landing page waiting for funding.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does it cost me?
Nothing to list, nothing monthly, and nothing if a date doesn't sell. When a seat sells, Laga buys your workshop at 78% of your listed price (excl. MVA) and resells it in our own name — so there is no commission invoiced to you and nothing for you to deduct yourself.
How and when do I get paid?
Every two weeks, for the sessions that have actually taken place — not at the moment of booking. Payouts go to your bank account through Stripe. You invoice Laga for the purchase price, or you can opt in to self-billing and we generate the invoice for you.
What if nobody books?
Then nothing happens and you owe nothing. There is no penalty for an empty date and no minimum number of sessions. The risk of an unsold seat sits with us, not with you.
Do I have to be exclusive to Laga?
No, and we won't ask you to be. Keep teaching your own classes, keep your own students and your own booking page. Many hosts put only the dates they struggle to fill on Laga.
What about MVA?
You list your price excluding MVA, and the 78% is calculated on that ex-MVA price. Any MVA on the sale to the customer is Laga's own liability as the seller — it is never added to, or taken out of, what you earn. And if you are under the 50 000 kr registration threshold yourself, only your 78% counts towards your own turnover, not the full customer price.
Do I need a professional studio?
No. Home studios, shared workshop spaces, a café you have an arrangement with, or a garden in summer all work. It needs to be safe, legal for the activity, and a decent place to learn.
What happens if a participant cancels?
You choose the policy for each workshop: flexible (free cancellation up to 24 hours before), standard (48 hours) or strict (7 days). We enforce it and handle the refund. A cancellation that comes too late still counts as a sold seat.
What if too few people sign up?
You set a minimum number of participants per workshop. If it isn't reached 48 hours before the start, we cancel the session automatically and refund everyone — so you never travel to your studio for one person.
