Scammers and frauds
If , had a chance to give this app 0 or negative rating I would gladly give it , they scam coins and keep increasing the prize . A student had booked the demo class and never responded to me , my coins were cut because the student booked the demo class without intimating me , now when the time came for demo class the student never responded , so I told back end team my situation and they had promised a refund after 15 days , after 15 days they told no refund because the refund police is the student should camel the demo within 2 hours of booking , they make up new rules scam their own customers

Review: My 5-6 Year Experience with UrbanPro
Hello everyone,
If you are considering listing yourself on UrbanPro, please go through these points carefully before making a decision.
I have been listed on UrbanPro for more than 5-6 years. In recent times, the platform has shifted from being teacher-friendly to becoming a large business-centric platform.
1. High Commission Model: Teachers are being pushed to share 20-30% of their student fees with the platform.
2. Expensive Coins & Upgrades: Coin prices have increased significantly, and there is constant pressure to upgrade memberships with no guarantee of student leads.
3. Low-Quality Leads: In my experience, 60-70% of the queries received are fake or non-responsive. Students often do not answer calls.
4. Expensive Memberships: Membership costs have become very high, yet genuine student conversion remains very low.
5. Poor ROI: Even if you do get a student, you are required to share 20-40% of the fee with UrbanPro.
My Suggestion:
If you are a new tutor thinking of registering, I would advise you to stay away from UrbanPro for now and explore other platforms. I am also planning to deactivate my account here soon and move to a different platform.

It’s a scam even the once who are earning their earnings are very low
If you are a tutor looking to grow your business, stay far away from UrbanPro. What used to be a helpful marketplace has turned into a blatant money-making machine that offers zero accountability to its partners.
1. The "Fake Inquiry" Loophole
Before you pay for a membership, you will be bombarded with notifications saying "students are viewing your profile" or "new inquiries in your area." The moment you pay for a subscription or buy coins, the quality of these leads vanishes. Most "students" never answer their phones, and many numbers provided are either invalid or belong to people who "never made an inquiry." It feels like the platform is filled with bot-generated leads just to drain your coins.
2. The Coin System is a Scam
UrbanPro’s coin system is designed to make you lose money. You are charged a significant number of coins just to view a student's contact details. Even if the student doesn't pick up, or if the requirement was posted weeks ago and already filled, your coins are not refunded. You are essentially gambling your hard-earned money on "ghost" leads.
3. Ridiculous Commission & Policies
Not only do they charge you to find a student, but they also try to take a massive 20% cut of your earnings if you use their payment gateway. If you try to talk to a student directly to verify their needs before spending coins, you risk getting your account suspended. They want total control over your business without providing any guarantee of a single actual student.
4. Non-Existent Support
If you have an issue with a fraudulent inquiry or a technical glitch that ate your coins, good luck getting a refund. Their "Customer Support" is a maze of automated bots and offline chat windows. They have a "no refund" policy that they hide behind, even when the service they provided was clearly faulty.
Final Verdict:
UrbanPro is no longer a platform for educators; it is a platform for collecting membership fees and coin payments. You are better off using local networking, Google My Business, or even social media. Don't let them eat your money.

Charging high per enquiry
I have been on this platform for very long. Always appreciated the opportunities they provided to the tutors. However, recently I am facing a lotttt of difficulties. First of all, per enquiry they are asking for “203” coins(this is too much). So if I get 800 coins I can contact only 3 students and again I have to buy more coins. Secondly, what has happened to your payment page urbanpro? Why unnecessary charges are added in the end. Also, there is technical glitch while doing the payment. The amount shown is triple the actual amount. Is this some kind of scam? I have recommended this app to so many tutors earlier but I don’t know whether it is credible or not anymore. It is a genuine suggestion from my side- lower the number of coins charged per enquiry. Earlier it used to be 40coins per enquiry. 203 coins is 5x more.

This app is so waist of money and I pay 590 for enquiry na koi cll uthata hai na koi response krta h
This app is a complete waste of money. I paid 590 for an enquiry, but no one answers the calls or responds. The app is fake. I get enquiries every day, but none of them result in any work. We pay money and then have to contact them ourselves. I regret paying; from now on, I will never pay again. My 590 Rs is wasted.
