Terms
The terms for talent and clients using Castmira.
Last updated 6 November 2026. We may update these terms and will tell registered talent and clients about any material change by email.
Who we are
Castmira is the trading name of Castmira LLC, a limited liability company licensed by Sharjah Media City (SHAMS) free zone, UAE, licence no. 2649520.01. Licensed activities include managing and operating a casting agency, managing and operating a modelling agency, and talent management. Registered address: Sharjah Media City (SHAMS), Sharjah, United Arab Emirates. In these terms, "Castmira", "we" and "us" mean Castmira LLC.
For talent
- Joining Castmira is free. We never charge registration, portfolio or subscription fees.
- You must be 18 or over, live in the UAE, and be legally able to do the work you accept.
- Your profile details and photos must be your own, accurate and recent.
- Castmira earns a 15% commission on the talent fee for jobs booked through us. You see the rate before you accept.
- Founding talent. The first 100 talent profiles we approve are "Founding talent". They pay a 10% commission instead of 15% on their first 3 completed bookings, and their profile shows a Founding talent badge. If anyone you refer with your personal link is approved, they count towards your referrals: once 3 of your referrals are approved, your commission stays at 10% on all future bookings for as long as your profile remains active. Referrals must be real people who sign up themselves; we may remove referrals that are duplicates, fake or self-referrals. Client fees are not affected.
- We pay you within 7 days of the client paying Castmira.
- Representation is non-exclusive unless we agree otherwise in writing. Jobs that come to you through Castmira clients should be booked through Castmira for 12 months.
- Once approved, a public version of your profile appears in our talent gallery (no surname, date of birth, contact details or body measurements). You can update it any time in My profile, and close it at any time.
For clients
- Bookings cost the talent fee plus a 20% Castmira booking fee, plus VAT where it applies.
- We invoice 50% on confirmation and the balance is due within 14 days of the job.
- Usage rights are as stated in the booking confirmation. Extra usage is quoted separately.
- Cancellation within 48 hours of the job is charged at 50% of the talent fee; within 24 hours, 100%.
- To shortlist or request talent you need a free client account and a brief for your project. Client logins are personal to your company. Don't share them, and don't copy, download or pass on talent photos, videos or details except to plan a booking with Castmira.
- Any talent you find through Castmira (in our talent gallery, a shortlist or a brief) must be booked through Castmira for 12 months after you first see their profile. If you book them directly in that time, the 20% booking fee is still payable.
- We may suspend a client login at any time if these terms are broken.
