Questions
Booking a Companion in Brisbane
A South Bank walk with a coffee is the easiest first booking in Brisbane: it is central, scenic and public, and it takes about an hour to ninety minutes. In the evening, a meal in Fortitude Valley or on the river is the usual next step.
No. Deeplay is a platform for platonic social companionship and activities only. Companions in Brisbane are verified locals who share experiences like coffee, meals, city walks, karaoke and events. Romantic or intimate services are not offered and are against our community standards.
Companions set their own hourly rate, between $40 and $200 AUD per hour; most are $40–80. A 5% service fee is added at checkout. For example, two hours with a $55/hour Companion costs $115.50 ($110 + $5.50 fee). Companions receive their rate minus a 15% platform commission.
You pay by card through Stripe when you book. Your card is only held, not charged, until the Companion accepts. If they decline or do not respond within 24 hours, the hold is released automatically. Cash and off-platform payments are not allowed.
Yes. Every Companion is reviewed and approved by the Deeplay team, then completes government-ID and selfie verification through Stripe Identity before they can accept any booking. Explorers verify their phone number too.
Bookings can start as soon as one hour from now and up to 60 days ahead. The Companion has 24 hours to accept, so for a same-day booking it is best to message them first.
Yes, if you are 18 or older, live in Brisbane and enjoy sharing your city. Apply on the Become a Companion page; our team reviews every application before a listing can go live.
