Frequently Asked Questions

How does Happ help actors?

Happ is the homebase for independent actors. It brings all your Collaborations into one mobile-first workspace - contracts, payments, and billing. Pricing and contract terms draw on the entire creator network, so you quote from real data. Define where your performance can be used, protect your likeness from AI and unauthorized use, and set session rates by day type.

How do I define where my performance can be used?

Usage rights specify the medium, geography, platform, and duration. TV, web, social, and out-of-home are each separate use cases.

Can I protect my likeness from being used in AI-generated content?

Yes. Likeness terms can explicitly exclude AI training, deepfake use, and synthetic media generation.

How do I structure payment for multiple session days?

Each session day is a milestone. Travel days, fitting days, and shoot days each have defined rates.

What happens if a booking gets postponed instead of cancelled?

Postponements beyond your defined window are treated as new bookings - requiring fresh confirmation and a new deposit. The original date is released.

How much should I charge as an actor?

Happ does not set your rates - Smart Pricing surfaces relevant benchmarks from the community brain, so you can price a session day, a commercial, or a voice booking with real market context. You set the number.

How do actors invoice clients and get paid?

Invoicing is tied to the signed agreement - milestones across session days - paid straight through Happ. Happ never takes a commission on your work; the only cost is a standard payment processing fee that depends on how your Collaborator pays, always shown to you upfront.

How does Happ help me manage multiple bookings and venues?

Every booker, event company, venue, and agent is organized in your Homebase with full contract and payment history. No more lost threads or forgotten contacts.
