Why paying changes everything

You get a real answer

Every recruiter on Koali commits to responding within 10 business days. That commitment exists because you paid. Free boards can't make that promise.

Small, deliberate pools

Because applying costs something, only serious candidates apply. Your application competes with 5 to 50 others, not 500.

Credit guarantee

If the recruiter misses the 10-day window, your application credit is returned to your Koali account automatically. You can't lose a credit to a recruiter who ghosts you.

Questions

Frequently asked

Why does applying cost money?

The credit is what creates the guarantee. Because you paid, the recruiter is contractually required to respond within 10 days. If they don't, you get it back automatically. Free applications produce zero accountability on either side.

Do credits expire?

No. Credits sit in your account until you use them. No time limit, no pressure.

What if the recruiter doesn't respond?

If the recruiter misses the 10-day window, your application credit is returned to your Koali account automatically. You don't do anything. The system handles it.

Can I switch from a bundle to a subscription?

Yes. Credits you've already purchased stay in your account. A subscription adds a monthly allowance on top.
