Said it, signed it, photographed it.
No arguments at the end.
What you agreed on was said, signed and photographed - so there are no arguments at the end. Hungary’s first tradespeople platform that follows the job from agreement through a digital contract to a photo-evidenced completion certificate. Free for customers, forever; for tradespeople, zero commission is not a promotion but a promise - with no monthly fee for at least 12 months, up to 24 for early joiners.
You don’t need a contact.
Describe what you need and tax-verified tradespeople will apply. The agreement becomes a digital contract and the finished work is evidenced with photos - so what you agreed on stays provable.
The full fee stays yours.
Zero commission - not an introductory price, a permanent rule. No monthly fee for at least 12 months, up to 24 for early joiners. The digital contract protects you too: it states what you took on - and what you did not. The photo certificate proves you did the job properly.
The whole process in 12 seconds
An auto-playing preview - you can also walk through the full process step by step below.
"Precise, fast, everything backed up with photos."
Tax-number check
Every tradesperson's tax number is verified against the Hungarian tax authority (NAV) register before they appear in search.
Digital contract
Every job is recorded in writing, with legal protection.
Certificate approval
Completion is evidenced with photo documentation - nothing goes public without it.
No commission
100% of the job fee goes to the professional - we never take a cut.
Secure platform
Encrypted communication, protected payments, an auditable process end to end.
From the first minute to the last
The same route for every job - whether you are looking for help or doing the work.
The route is always the same because disputes rarely come down to the quality of the work - they come down to who remembers what afterwards. Here the agreement is written down, completion is evidenced with photos, and both sides see the very same document, from the contract to the completion certificate. Instead of one account against another, there is a shared, downloadable record of everything.

Everything that turns a job from a leap of faith into a documented process
Every job stays measurable, verified and traceable - a marketplace built on checkable facts rather than promises, from the first search click to the final review.
Most bad experiences come from the same gap: the customer cannot check who they are letting into their home, and the tradesperson cannot prove the work was done properly. We close both sides: the business tax number is checked against the official register, the agreement becomes a digitally signed contract, finished work is closed with a photo-evidenced completion certificate, and only someone with a genuinely completed job can leave a review.
Tax-verified tradespeople
We check every business against the Hungarian tax authority register before they appear in search.
Digitally signed contract
Authenticated with a one-time code, identified, and downloadable as a PDF at any time.
Photo-evidenced completion
Work is closed with photo documentation and the customer’s approval.
Reviews that cannot be faked
Only a customer with a closed, approved completion certificate behind them can leave a review.
Encrypted communication
Chat messages are stored encrypted and only the two participants can read them.

Frequently asked questions about MesterKontroll
No. Searching, the price estimator, messaging and posting a job are all free for customers. The fee you agree with the tradesperson is settled directly between the two of you.
A one-off registration fee of HUF 990 (incl. VAT) - everyone pays this, including those who register through an invitation link. In return, EVERYONE gets 12 months of free visibility in search; for early joiners we extend this up to 24 months. During this time there is no monthly fee at all, and we never take a commission from your jobs. After the 12 months you can choose a monthly subscription plan: Basic HUF 4,990/month (search visibility), Featured HUF 7,990/month (+ higher ranking and a badge), Premium HUF 11,990/month (+ reporting module) - cancel anytime; the current price list is always available in the Portal's Subscription menu.
The token amount does two things. It covers the ongoing cost of tax-number verification, hosting and development - without advertising or selling data - and it filters out, right at the door, anyone not registering as a genuine business. Ultimately that protects you, the customer, with a more reliable pool of tradespeople.
Tradespeople provide their tax number at registration, which the system checks against the Hungarian tax authority (NAV) register, and they also make a legal declaration that their details are accurate.
When the work is finished, the tradesperson submits a completion certificate with photo documentation, which the customer approves using a one-time code. This is also what the public review is based on.
You can search by trade and by town, check their availability status and their reviews - which are based on previous, publicly verified jobs. Alternatively you can post a job, and matching tradespeople will send you quotes.
MesterKontroll is not an escrow service and takes no part in the payment. The agreed fee is settled directly between customer and tradesperson, however you agreed (cash, bank transfer and so on).
Yes. Chat messages are stored encrypted, and only the two participants in the conversation - the customer and the tradesperson - can access them.
Both parties approve the contract with a one-time code received by e-mail. That is an identified, auditable digital signing process, and the approved document can be downloaded at any time as a real PDF. The precise legal classification always depends on the circumstances of the specific transaction.
Yes, at any time from the Subscription menu. Your trial period and any period you have already paid for stay valid until they expire; only the automatic renewal stops.
Bought or fake reviews are not possible. Only a customer with a closed completion certificate, approved by both parties, can leave a review.
Yes. Tradespeople specify at registration which towns and regions they take work in, and search works nationwide on that basis.
Yes - it is available as an Android and iOS app with the same features as the browser Portal, so you can handle your jobs, messages and notifications on the move.
By bank card, through Barion - a licensed, secure payment provider - directly inside the Portal. This applies only to fees payable to the platform; the fee you agree with the tradesperson is separate and settled between you.
The customer can dispute the completion certificate with a reason. In that case it does not take effect, and the parties resolve the matter primarily between themselves, or if necessary through the dispute resolution route set out in the contract (for example the conciliation board).
