You must
- be 18 or older and resident in India;
- pass identity verification (Aadhaar or PAN);
- never give medical, psychiatric or legal advice, and refer anyone in crisis to emergency services;
- keep every conversation on the platform and never ask for payment outside Yaara;
- follow the Community Guidelines.
Counsellor FAQ
How much can I earn?
Your earnings depend on your rate and the minutes you talk. The app shows your exact per-minute share before you go online, and a live counter during every call.
When are payouts made?
Payout requests are processed weekly to your verified bank account or UPI ID. Payouts may be held while a dispute or fraud review is open.
Do customers see my phone number?
Never. Calls run inside the app. Customers see your display name, photo, languages, rating and rate.
Am I an employee of Yaara?
No. Counsellors are independent users of the platform and responsible for their own taxes. See the Counsellor Agreement.
