Common questions
Do I pay to list a candidate?
No. Candidates, permissions, listings and job orders are unlimited on every plan.
What if the placement falls off?
Clawback follows the rules you both encoded in the agreement, and the platform fee follows the fee that was actually kept.
Is the audit record behind a paywall?
No. Exports and the public check tool are free for everyone.
Can I invite a split partner who is not on PlaceRail?
Yes. They create a free account to sign, and the deal proceeds normally.
Create an account, send one Right to Represent, and see what the record looks like before you pay anything.
