Customers first and then work backwards. We work to earn and keep our customer trust. Forget competition, obsess over customers.

Customer obsession

When Zipcube started back in 2014, we had a simple goal in mind: to make life easier for anyone trying to book a room or hire a space. Today, we're still doing our best to help our customers, but we're keeping one eye on the bigger picture as well. We know how sweet it is to hear a friend compliment your choice of venue. We understand that amazing office spaces make for happier and more productive companies. We want to connect people with perfect spaces, and make a simple process, simpler.

Our Story

Innovate, invent, simplify. At Zipcube we look for new ideas from everywhere. As with any pioneer, we accept that we may be misunderstood for a while before our work is finished.

Invent and simplify

Accomplish more with less. Constraints breed resourcefulness, self-sufficiency and invention. There are no extra points for growing headcount, budget size, or fixed expense.

Keep it lean

We are never done learning and always seek to improve ourselves. We are curious about new possibilities and act to explore them.

Learn and be curious

Speed matters in business. Many decisions and actions are reversible and do not need extensive study. We value calculated risk taking.

No risk, no fun!

Together at Zipcube. We are Zipcube, nice to meet you!

We couldn't do any of this without the great group of people who make up our team. Hard-working, passionate and dedicated, Zipcube is a talented community of amazing individuals. We believe in supporting one another and making sure that everyone's work is integral to our overall aims.

Our team

Thinking small is a self-fulfilling prophecy. We're creating and communicating a bold plan that inspires results.

Think big

We embody our values

Yes. One of the FREE tools to bookable venues is a space management application that can be used to track both bookings and internal appointments. For example, if you need to book an internal meeting, Zipcube will automatically remove the time from the marketplace schedule.

YES we do. Zipcube gives you unprecedented visibility among space seekers looking for exactly what you provide. We have an extensive SEO/affiliate network that automatically broadcasts all space listings so you receive twice as much exposure from web searches.

Zipcube remits all booking proceeds to venues via bank transfer at the beginning of each month. We will ask you who/where to send payment once a booking has been made.

Each venue owner will register and start completing the venue registration form to create bookable listing. Zipcube will approve and publish the new listing within 24 hours. After that, Zipcube will either send you direct bookings which you can either accept or reject. We then process the payment and send you the proceeds. There is absolutely no risk.

There is no limit to how long you keep a space active. Our space availability settings includes extensive options for creating timed campaigns, setup bumpers, and free-sell periods.

For users, booking is 100% FREE. For venue owners, It is FREE to list your venue and use our tools. When someone reserves your space, Zipcube withholds a 20% processing fee for the space rental (varies based on venue size). That's it.

You should price your spaces / offices to be attractive and competitive with other venues. Zipcube is positioned as a marketplace for space and encourages venues to discount when possible. For example, a typical hourly rate for a boardroom space that holds 10 people might be £40/hr, where a typical full-day rate would be £200. Our vision is to provide the best online marketplace to maximise the occupancy rate of each venue.

No - we don't limit the number or types of spaces we accept in the marketplace. Zipcube supports listing multiple spaces per venue; each space will have its own profile page. For venues with multiple locations, you will need a separate account for each. It's one account per venue!

Zipcube verifies each venue owners in order to provide the best quality listing. To prevent fraud or abuse, Zipcube reviews every profile for validity and confirms all contact information before making your profile live. Other than that, we only ask that you complete the venue registration by including photos, pricing, and venue amenities. The better your profile, the more likely it is to attract customers.

Zipcube is the web's first online marketplace to help people find and book short-term meeting, office and event spaces. Our mission is to provide space seekers an easy to use platform with up-to-date venue information that converts users into real-time bookings. Most importantly, we make it easy for users to search and book a space.
