Cook for clients across Dubai and keep every dirham you earn. UpChef is free to join, sends you bookings and leads, and takes 0% commission from chefs — you keep 100%. Your kitchen, your menu, your prices.
Most platforms take 15–30% of everything you cook. UpChef takes nothing from you — our only fee is a small service charge the customer pays on top, so your quoted price is your payout. That is the difference between a tip-jar app and a business.\n\nYou get a public chef profile (your own page clients can find and share), a booking system, secure payments released after each event, reviews to build your reputation, and direct chat with clients. No agency cut, no lead fees, no monthly charge to start. Set your services — private dinners, catering, meal prep, grills, fine dining — and your own availability and pricing. You are in control.

No setup fee, no monthly fee, no lead fees

Your menu, prices, services and schedule
On a AED 2,000 booking:
Yes. We take nothing from the chef — you keep 100% of your quoted price. UpChef's only revenue is a small service fee the customer pays on top of your price at checkout.
Yes — free to sign up, no monthly fee, and no charge for leads or bookings. You can list your services and start receiving requests at no cost.
It depends on your menu and group size, but many private-chef events in Dubai run AED 185–250 per guest, so a single dinner for 8–10 guests is a meaningful payday — and all of it is yours.
No formal degree is required. What matters is that you can cook food people remember. Every chef is verified before going live so clients can book with confidence.
After you create your profile we run a quick verification (ID + culinary background). Most chefs are approved within 24–48 hours.
Payments are handled securely in the app and released to you after each completed event. There are no lead fees or deductions taken from your earnings.
Completely. You set your services, pricing, guest minimums and availability. UpChef sends you the clients — you run your business your way.
