Choose your Udok plan

Start with R699. Your ongoing fee depends on the plan you choose: Freelance or Practice.

Freelance

R699 every 12 months

Consult Udok Network patients throughout the year, subject to approval and clinical requirements. Freelance has no monthly subscription.

Network pricing and payout terms apply, with weekly payouts. The 5% own-practice service fee does not apply to these consultations.

Practice

First month included. Then R699/month or R6,990/year.

Run your own practice: manage your own patients, clinical records and billing, and accept bookings through your practice link.

Your initial payment includes your first month of bookings through your practice link, starting from the date your payment is confirmed. After your included month, choose R699/month or R6,990 every 12 months to continue accepting new bookings through your practice link. Annual Practice covers 12 months for the price of 10. Neither option adds a separate Freelance annual fee.

A 5% service fee applies only to consultations managed through your own practice on Udok, with weekly payouts.

Want to do both? Either paid Practice subscription also covers your Freelance annual fee for Udok Network access. You do not pay a separate Freelance fee on top.

Recurring payments require your authorisation at checkout. Your selected Practice subscription starts after the included month. You can turn off annual renewal and keep access until your paid year ends; monthly cancellation requires one calendar month’s notice. No credits or prorating apply. Without a Practice subscription, new bookings through your practice link pause after the included month. Freelance consulting continues with annual fee coverage and the usual eligibility requirements. Confirmed appointments and care already in progress can continue.

All fees include VAT and are per psychiatrist. Pro, with added clinical AI tools, is coming soon. Practice approval and clinical requirements still apply. Cancel a monthly subscription with one calendar month’s written notice; monthly fees remain payable until cancellation takes effect.
