Last updated: 20 August 2026 · Version 3.1
These are the terms you accept as a Host on Laga. They cover how the principal/supplier model works, what you owe your participants, and exactly how and when you get paid.
Laga sells the workshop to the customer as seller and merchant of record; you deliver it as an independent registered business (section 2). Laga buys your workshop delivery at 78% of your listed price excluding MVA — no commission is charged to you — and pays you every two weeks, for sessions that have already taken place — not per booking (section 6). You are responsible for the safety, legality and quality of what happens in the room (section 7). If you are looking for a worked example of the payout maths rather than the contract, see the How Payments Work guide in your dashboard.
Operator. The Laga platform (the website laga.studio and any associated applications, the "Platform") is operated by LAGA CO AS, a private limited company registered in the Norwegian Register of Business Enterprises (Foretaksregisteret) under organisation number org.nr. 938 176 663, registered address Møllergata 8, 0179 Oslo, Norway ("Laga", "we", "us"). Contact: support [at] laga.studio.
Who these Terms are for. These Terms & Conditions for Hosts (the "Host Terms") govern the relationship between Laga and any artist, artisan, creator or organiser who lists and delivers Workshops through the Platform (the "Host", "you"). They apply in addition to Laga's general Terms of Service; in the event of conflict regarding the host relationship, these Host Terms prevail. By registering as a Host, creating a listing, or delivering a Workshop booked through the Platform, you accept these Host Terms.
You act as a registered business. You represent that you offer Workshops in the course of a trade, business, craft or profession (næringsvirksomhet) and that you are a registered Norwegian business — a sole proprietorship (enkeltpersonforetak / ENK) or a limited company (aksjeselskap / AS) — with a valid organisation number. You must keep your registration, legal-entity type and VAT (MVA) registration status accurate at all times. Being a registered business is a condition of hosting, because Laga settles with you on the basis of invoices issued in your name (section 6).
Laga operates an online marketplace for creative Workshops and sells Workshops to customers ("Users") as the seller and merchant of record. The contract for the Workshop is concluded between Laga and the User. You, the Host, are engaged by Laga as an independent supplier (underleverandør) to deliver the Workshops you list, in your own name and on your own professional responsibility, on Laga's behalf. You are not Laga's employee, agent or partner. Laga provides the Platform, listing and booking management, customer payment collection, settlement tooling and support; you are responsible for the Workshop itself, including its content, organisation, safety, quality and legal compliance. Laga operates an information-society service under the E-commerce Act (ehandelsloven, LOV-2003-05-23-35).
To become a Host you complete the multi-step registration, providing accurate identifying and business information, including legal name, organisation number, legal-entity type (ENK or AS), MVA-registration status and applicable MVA rate, contact details, billing/bank details for settlement, and any identity details required by our payment provider.
Each Workshop is reviewed before it goes live; verification gates settlement, not selling. You may create and sell Workshops from registration. Every Workshop you create or edit is subject to review and approval by Laga before it becomes publicly bookable. Separately, Laga verifies your account: we may carry out checks, request supporting documents, and decline or revoke verification at our discretion where information is incomplete, false, or where verification cannot be completed. Settlement is withheld until your account is verified — your earnings continue to accrue and remain payable, but no transfer is made before verification (see section 6 and the due-diligence provision below). Revoking verification also unpublishes your live Workshops. You must keep your information current and notify us of material changes.
Identity and anti-money-laundering. Because Laga collects payments and settles with Hosts, you and our payment providers may be subject to customer due-diligence and verification measures, including under the Anti-Money Laundering Act (hvitvaskingsloven, LOV-2018-06-01-23) and our providers' onboarding requirements. You agree to provide the information reasonably required for these purposes; settlement may be withheld until due diligence is complete.
You are responsible for creating accurate, complete and lawful Workshop listings. Each listing must include the information a consumer needs before booking, in line with the Right of Withdrawal Act (angrerettloven, LOV-2014-06-20-27) and the E-commerce Act, including: title and description, category, duration, maximum number of participants, price per person, location/address, what is included, any prerequisites or restrictions (such as minimum age, health, safety or dress requirements), any minimum-participant or weather conditions, and available dates. Prices must be stated in Norwegian kroner (NOK), inclusive of VAT (MVA) where applicable to consumers.
Content licence and warranties. You grant Laga a non-exclusive, royalty-free, worldwide licence to host, display, reproduce and use your listing content (including text and images) on the Platform and in related marketing. You warrant that you own or are licensed to use all such content and that it does not infringe any third-party rights, and you will indemnify Laga against claims arising from your content or your Workshops.
Search ranking of listings is influenced by factors such as relevance to the User's search, location, available dates, price, ratings and booking volume. Laga may moderate, edit for formatting, or remove listings that breach these Host Terms or applicable law.
You manage your own calendar and availability. The Platform updates availability in real time to prevent double-booking. When a User completes a Booking, a contract for the Workshop arises between Laga and the User, and you are committed to deliver that Workshop on Laga's behalf on the terms shown at the time of Booking. You must honour all confirmed Bookings, deliver the Workshop as described, provide any materials included, and communicate any session-specific information to participants.
Private and team-building Workshops. You may offer Workshops that can be privatised for a single group (a private buyout), and custom team-building packages for companies. A private-booking premium of 20% is added to the base price of a private buyout to reflect the exclusivity and your additional coordination; the purchase price (section 6) is calculated on the premium-inclusive total, so you earn proportionally more. For private requests, you respond with your availability (typically within 72 hours) and the booking is confirmed when the User pays within the time allowed. Eligible business bookings may, where Laga enables it, be paid by the User via 30-day invoice (faktura) through our provider Billie. The non-circumvention obligation in section 10 applies. State any terms specific to a private or team-building Workshop — minimum group size, price and cancellation terms — clearly in the listing or quote.
6.1 Purchase price. Laga sells the Workshop to the User in its own name and purchases the delivery of that Workshop from you. Laga pays you a purchase price equal to 78% of your listed price excluding MVA for the seats sold, including any private-booking premium and net of any discount Laga grants the User, unless a different rate is agreed with you in writing. Prices you list are exclusive of MVA. The price shown to a User is your listed price plus any MVA due on Laga's sale. Laga charges you no commission and no fee: the difference between the price Laga charges the User and the purchase price is Laga's own margin on its own sale, and is not invoiced to you. The purchase-price rate is configurable by Laga; the rate in force at the time of a Booking applies to that Booking, is fixed against that Booking when it is made, and Laga may change the standard rate for future Bookings on reasonable prior notice. Your "Earnings" for a Booking are that purchase price. Any MVA due on Laga's sale to the User is Laga's own liability and is neither added to nor deducted from your Earnings.
6.2 Customer payment and settlement every two weeks. Laga, as seller and merchant of record, collects payment from the User at the time of Booking and issues the User a receipt in Laga's own name including MVA where applicable. Laga does not pay you per Booking. Instead, settlement is made twice a month in arrears, for the periods running from the 1st to the 15th and from the 16th to the end of each month:
6.2a Set-off. If a Booking is refunded to the User after the settlement period covering it has been settled, the Earnings paid or payable to you for that Booking are recovered by set-off against your next settlement. Where a settlement period does not cover the full amount, the remainder is carried forward to the following period. Your dashboard shows any amount pending set-off before it is applied.
6.3 Self-billing (selvfakturering). Self-billing means Laga issues the settlement invoice in your name and on your behalf, from Laga's own dedicated self-billing number series, instead of you uploading one. It is the default settlement method and applies once you have accepted the self-billing agreement, which you are asked to do during onboarding and can review in your dashboard; it may be withdrawn by you at any time, and by Laga on written notice, in each case for future settlement periods. Where self-billing applies you undertake to review each self-billed invoice made available in your dashboard and to notify Laga without undue delay of any error; you remain responsible for your own MVA reporting and bookkeeping in respect of the amounts invoiced, must notify Laga without delay of any change to your MVA-registration status, and must not issue your own separate invoice for the same statement.
6.4 Optional subscription. Laga does not currently offer a paid Host subscription. If Laga introduces an optional paid plan for premium visibility and marketing tools, its fees, billing frequency and cancellation terms will be set out at sign-up, will require your separate acceptance, and will be separate from the purchase-price arrangement in section 6.1.
6.5 Taxes and invoicing. Because Laga sells in its own name as principal, MVA flows in the normal supplier-to-customer direction: Laga accounts for output MVA on the full price charged to the User, and where you are MVA-registered you invoice Laga with MVA on your Earnings, which Laga treats as input MVA. Where you are not MVA-registered you invoice without MVA, and because Laga charges you no commission this costs you nothing. Your MVA-registration status and rate as declared by you in your Host profile determine whether MVA is added to your settlement, and you are responsible for keeping that declaration accurate and correcting it promptly if it changes. You are solely responsible for determining, charging, reporting and paying all taxes arising from your activity, including MVA and income tax, and for issuing compliant invoices under the Bookkeeping Act (bokføringsloven, LOV-2004-11-19-73). Laga does not provide tax advice. Where required by law, Laga will report information about Hosts and their transactions to the Norwegian Tax Administration (Skatteetaten) under the digital-platform reporting rules in the Tax Administration Act (skatteforvaltningsloven, LOV-2016-05-27-14) and associated regulations (implementing the OECD model rules / EU DAC7 standard, applicable from 2026). You agree to provide the identifying and financial information needed for such reporting.
8.1 Cancellation by the User. Users may cancel a Booking under the cancellation policy set for that Workshop, which you choose in the workshop form — Flexible (24 hours before the start time), Standard (48 hours before the start time, the default) or Strict (7 days / 168 hours before the start time) — and which is shown to the User before booking. Where the User cancels outside the applicable window, Laga refunds the User accordingly and the seats are released. For cancellations made inside the applicable window, the Booking is non-refundable and you remain entitled to your Net Earnings for that Booking, subject to settlement rules. The statutory 14-day right of withdrawal does not apply to dated Workshops (angrerettloven § 22 letter m).
8.2 Cancellation by you. You must avoid cancelling confirmed Workshops. Where you genuinely cannot deliver a Workshop, you must notify Laga and affected Users as early as possible. Laga will offer affected Users a new date, an alternative, credit or a full refund; no Earnings are due for a cancelled session, and anything already settled for it is recovered by set-off under section 6.2a. Repeated or last-minute cancellations may lead to reduced visibility, suspension or removal from the Platform.
8.3 Conditional Workshops. Where a Workshop depends on a minimum number of participants or on weather, you must state this clearly on the listing and notify Laga and Users as early as possible (where feasible at least 24 hours before) if the session cannot proceed, so that a new date or refund can be arranged.
Users may rate and review Workshops they have attended. Laga may display these reviews. Laga does not edit the substance of genuine reviews but may remove content that is unlawful, discriminatory, harassing or otherwise in breach of the Terms. You may not solicit fake reviews or attempt to manipulate ratings.
For Users introduced to you through the Platform, you agree not to encourage or arrange that Bookings be made or paid outside the Platform in order to bypass Laga's role as seller, for the duration of your use of the Platform and for a reasonable period afterwards. Circumvention is a material breach and may lead to suspension, removal and a claim for the margin Laga would have earned.
Laga retains all rights in the Platform, the Laga name and logo, and its content. You retain rights in your own listing content, subject to the licence granted in section 4. Neither party may use the other's trademarks without prior written consent, except that Laga may use your name, logo and Workshop content to promote your listings and the Platform.
As between you and Laga, you are responsible for the Workshops you deliver and for any loss, injury or claim arising from them. You will indemnify and hold Laga harmless against any third-party claims (including from Users) arising out of your Workshops, your content, or your breach of these Host Terms or of applicable law. To the extent permitted by law, Laga is not liable to you for indirect or consequential loss, lost profits, or loss arising from Platform unavailability, User conduct, or circumstances outside our reasonable control. Nothing limits liability that cannot be limited under mandatory Norwegian law.
Either party may terminate the host relationship on 30 days' written notice. Laga may suspend or terminate your access immediately, and de-list your Workshops, where you materially breach these Host Terms, provide false information, fail due diligence, endanger Users, or act unlawfully or contrary to Laga's legitimate interests. On termination, confirmed Bookings will, where reasonable, be honoured or refunded, and outstanding Net Earnings will be settled subject to any amounts owed to Laga or required to be withheld.
Each party complies with the GDPR (Regulation (EU) 2016/679) and the Personal Data Act (personopplysningsloven, LOV-2018-06-15-38). Laga is the controller for personal data processed on the Platform as described in its Privacy Policy. When Laga shares a User's personal data with you so that you can deliver a Booking, you act as a separate and independent controller for that data. The terms governing this sharing are set out in Schedule 1 (Data Sharing Addendum), which forms part of these Host Terms. By accepting these Host Terms you also accept Schedule 1.
Read our Privacy Policy and the general Terms of Service.
Laga may update these Host Terms for legal, technical or commercial reasons, with the version in force at the time of a Booking applying to that Booking; material changes will be notified to you by email at least 30 days before they take effect. These Host Terms are governed by Norwegian law. Disputes that cannot be resolved amicably are subject to the jurisdiction of the Norwegian courts, with Oslo District Court (Oslo tingrett) as the agreed legal venue, unless mandatory law provides otherwise.

Controller-to-controller data sharing between Laga and the Host. Forms part of these Host Terms.
This Data Sharing Addendum (the "Addendum") governs the sharing of personal data between LAGA CO AS ("Laga") and the Host where Laga discloses User personal data to the Host so that the Host can deliver and administer Workshops booked through the Platform. Laga and the Host each act as a separate and independent data controller in respect of that personal data; this Addendum does not create a controller-to-processor relationship or a joint-controllership under Article 26 GDPR. Each party determines, independently, the means and (for its own activities) the purposes of its processing and is individually responsible for its own compliance with Data Protection Law.
"Data Protection Law" means the GDPR (Regulation (EU) 2016/679), the Norwegian Personal Data Act (personopplysningsloven, LOV-2018-06-15-38), the Electronic Communications Act (ekomloven) where relevant, and any other applicable data-protection legislation, in each case as amended.
Disclosing party: Laga (controller of the Platform).
Receiving party: The Host (independent controller for delivery of its Workshops).
Subject matter: Disclosure of User personal data necessary for the Host to deliver and administer a booked Workshop.
Data subjects: Users (customers) who book the Host's Workshops, and any additional participants whose details a User provides for a Booking.
Categories of personal data: Identification and contact data (e.g. name, email, and where provided phone number); booking data (Workshop, date, number of seats, order reference); and any participant information relevant to safe delivery that the User chooses to provide (e.g. allergies, accessibility or health information relevant to the activity).
Special categories: Health-related information may incidentally be shared where a User discloses it for safety reasons (Art. 9 GDPR). Each party must ensure an appropriate Art. 9 condition and apply enhanced safeguards. The Host must not request more such data than is necessary.
Purpose of sharing: To enable the Host to perform the Workshop on Laga's behalf, ensure safe delivery, communicate Booking-related information, and meet the Host's own legal obligations.
Duration: For the period necessary to deliver and administer the relevant Booking, plus any statutory retention period applicable to the Host (e.g. bookkeeping, safety records).
Each party warrants that, in respect of the personal data it processes under this Addendum, it will:
The Host must use the User personal data it receives solely to deliver and administer the booked Workshop and to comply with its own legal obligations. In particular, the Host must not use this data for its own direct marketing, profiling, sale, or any unrelated purpose unless it has obtained a separate, valid legal basis directly from the data subject (for example, the User's own consent collected by the Host in compliance with the Marketing Control Act, markedsføringsloven). The Host must not retain the data beyond what is necessary and lawful.
Each party is responsible for handling requests from data subjects to exercise their rights (access, rectification, erasure, restriction, objection and portability) in respect of its own processing. The parties will provide each other with reasonable cooperation and information, without undue delay, to enable the other to respond to such requests and to meet its obligations under Articles 12–22 GDPR. Where a party receives a request that relates to the other party's processing, it will promptly inform the data subject where appropriate and notify the other party.
If either party becomes aware of a personal data breach (Article 4(12) GDPR) affecting personal data shared under this Addendum, it will notify the other party without undue delay and in any event within 48 hours of becoming aware, providing sufficient information to allow the other party to meet its own obligations under Articles 33 and 34 GDPR. Each party is responsible for assessing and, where required, notifying the Norwegian Data Protection Authority (Datatilsynet) and affected data subjects in respect of its own processing, and the parties will cooperate in good faith on such notifications.
Neither party will transfer personal data shared under this Addendum to a country outside the EEA without ensuring an adequate level of protection in accordance with Chapter V GDPR, for example an adequacy decision or the European Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses together with any required supplementary measures. Laga's infrastructure is hosted within the EEA (database in Stockholm, application servers in Frankfurt). The Host must keep such data within the EEA unless it can demonstrate a valid transfer mechanism.
Where the Host uses its own processors or service providers to process User personal data received under this Addendum, the Host remains responsible for that data and must ensure such providers are bound by written terms that meet the requirements of Article 28 GDPR and provide equivalent protection.
Each party will maintain records of its processing activities to the extent required by Article 30 GDPR and will be able to demonstrate its compliance with this Addendum and Data Protection Law on reasonable request.
As each party is an independent controller, each is responsible for, and will indemnify the other against, any administrative fines, claims, damages (including compensation under Article 82 GDPR) and reasonable costs arising from its own breach of this Addendum or of Data Protection Law. This section is subject to the liability and indemnity provisions of the main Host Terms (section 12) and does not limit any liability that cannot be limited under mandatory law.
This Addendum takes effect when the Host accepts the Host Terms and continues for as long as Laga shares User personal data with the Host. On termination, the Host will cease processing the shared data except as required to complete outstanding Bookings or to comply with a legal retention obligation, and will then securely delete or anonymise it. Sections relating to liability, confidentiality and obligations that by their nature survive will continue after termination.
This Addendum forms part of the Host Terms. In the event of a conflict between this Addendum and the main body of the Host Terms regarding the processing of personal data, this Addendum prevails. In the event of a conflict between this Addendum and mandatory Data Protection Law, the law prevails.
These Host Terms govern a business-to-business relationship between Laga and an independent registered business. They are separate from the Terms of Service that apply between Laga and consumers booking a workshop.
