Media Marketplace

The BCKSTG Media Marketplace is a Pro feature where artists, venues, promoters, and creators browse and book photographers and videographers directly inside their dashboard.

Status, Testing

The Marketplace is currently in active testing with select Pro accounts. Once a Pro account is enrolled in testing, the Find Media tab in your sidebar unlocks the full directory + booking flow.

What it does

Filter by location, specialty (photography, videography, both), availability, and genre focus
Send booking requests directly from a Media account's listing, every request opens a thread between you and the photographer/videographer
Track project status from initial inquiry through delivery (8 stages)
0% platform commission at launch, Stripe Connect handles deposits + final payment

Access

Pro accounts in the testing cohort: Find Media appears in the sidebar, unlocked.
Pro accounts not yet in the cohort: Find Media renders in the sidebar but routes to /dashboard/upgrade until enrolled.

We'll announce broader rollout in the What's New feed. Contact support if you want to be added to the testing cohort.
