Pocktt›Our mission

Sell your home.House someone.

Pocktt helps Australian homeowners sell privately and keep the commission. For every home sold through us, 10% of fees goes toward housing homelessness in Victoria.

The idea

When you sell a home in Australia, you write a cheque to a real estate agent for roughly 2–2.5% of the sale price. On a $780,000 home in Melbourne's north, that's $19,500. It pays for a listing on realestate.com.au, some photos, and a few open homes.

We built Pocktt because that commission doesn't reflect the value being delivered in 2026. The portal is the product. The buyer finds your home online. You can be there too — for a fraction of the cost.

For every home sold through Pocktt, 10% of our fee goes to housing homelessness in Victoria. Across thousands of sales, it adds up to something real.

Our charity partner

Working on the handshake.

We're in conversations with Victorian homelessness organisations to formalise our giving partnership before launch. We'll announce our official partner when Pocktt goes live. The commitment exists regardless — every sale donates 10% of fees from the very first listing.

How the 10% works

The mechanics, in plain English.

How the donation is calculated, when it moves, who receives it, and how you can check we're actually doing what we say.

10% of the Pocktt package fee you pay us — not the sale price of your home.

On a Guided package ($1,299), $129.90 is set aside. On Full ($1,999), $199.90. On List ($699), $69.90. Add-ons like the signboard are included in the calculation. GST is excluded — we donate from net fees.

This is a fixed line item on every invoice. Not a discretionary round-up, not an opt-in tickbox.

Funds are pooled and transferred quarterly — at the end of March, June, September and December.

We pool donations so the recipient charity gets a meaningful single transfer rather than dozens of small ones (which cost them admin time to process).

Every quarter we publish exactly how much was transferred, to which partner, and provide the transfer receipt.

To a Victorian homelessness organisation — a registered Australian charity with DGR (Deductible Gift Recipient) status, focused on direct housing outcomes rather than general advocacy.

We're finalising the formal partnership before launch and will name the official partner publicly the day Pocktt goes live. Conversations are active with several established Melbourne-based providers.

If our partner ever changes, we'll announce it on this page with reasoning. No quiet swaps.

No — the donation is made by Pocktt from our own revenue, not by you on top of your fee. You're paying for a service; we're choosing what to do with a slice of our margin.

If you'd like to make a personal tax-deductible donation on top, we'll happily point you to our partner's donation page once it's announced.

Every quarter we publish a transparency report on this page: total fees collected, 10% calculated, transfer receipt to the charity, and a signed confirmation from the recipient.

If we ever fail to publish a quarterly report on time, you have permission to be loudly skeptical. We'd rather be held to it than not.

It's a fair question. Our answer is structural: it's built into every invoice as a non-negotiable line item, published publicly every quarter, and committed to from the very first sale — when the marketing value is essentially zero because nobody is watching yet.

The honest test isn't whether we say it on the homepage. It's whether the donations show up in three years when nobody's checking. We're building it so they have to.

The 10% comes out of fees, not profit. Whether we're profitable or not, the donation happens for every sale.

If we go under, we go under having donated. That's the deal.
