Requirements for starting online business based on commission
Hi,
I am starting a company in the UAE. It will be an online marketplace, where I connect students to teachers and take a commission.
I wanted to know if this is legal in the UAE?
The student would make a payment through my website. I would then pay out the tutor and take a commission.
