Escorting in New Zealand - The Law

If you are still hesitating about whether to pursue Escorting as your new career, please find some frequently asked questions below that may help put you at ease

​

Q. How much money would I earn?   

A.  It depends on your attitude, personality, reliability, the services you provide, and the
current state of the market. It is possible to earn more in one day than what you can earn in a
week with a mainstream job. It is important to keep in
mind that while the hourly rate is much higher for escorts, unlike a mainstream job work is
not guaranteed and your income will fluctuate depending on the above factors (especially the
market).

*Extras are add-on services outside of a standardized package. Most reputable agencies will
not take any cut of money you make from extra services, so depending on what you offer,
you can make serious money with extras.

                                                         

Q. What exactly happens in the room?   

A.  Most service packages involve intercourse, oral (on the client and on you), hand jobs and
kissing. You can offer extras if you feel comfortable. A big part of the job is talking and
connecting with your client, so you may spend a lot of time chatting and cuddling. Protection
must be used at all times.

​

Q. What type of clients do I see?

A.  You will see many different types of clients. Most common are European/Kiwi clients
between 30 to 60 years old, who could be local or from other cities on business. It is also
common to see clients from different ethnicities and cultural backgrounds, particularly Asian
and Indian clients. Sometimes clients who struggle with speaking English visit escorts as their
English skills limit them from connecting with people organically.

 

Q. Can I say NO to any services or clients?

A.  It is ABSOLUTELY OK to say NO to any services you do not feel comfortable with or to any
particular clients you do not wish to see. You should never feel pressured by anyone at any
time, and have the right to refuse service at any time.

 

Q. What happens if I see a client who I know?

A. The likelihood you will see anyone you know is very slim. All reputable agencies have
cameras at the door so you can see who is arriving. If you see someone you may know, the
management will make an excuse on your behalf so you do not need to see them.

 

Q. How many hours do I have to work?

A. You are a self-employed independent contractor in most establishments. You can pick the
hours and days which suit your lifestyle, availability, schedule, and needs. You can work as
little as three to four hours per week, or as long as all day. You could choose to work one day
a week or make it a full-time profession.

 

Q. What are the working environments like?

A. These premises are very discrete, private and safe. They are clean, tidy and well presented. They are ABSOLUTELY drug free and drama free. They are fully secure including professional security cameras in the entrances, hallways and outside areas, but NOT in the rooms.

​

Q. What type of people work there?

A. Escorts are regular people just like you. They are nice people who are passionate, caring
and loving. They could be university students, mothers, office workers, artists – this job
appeals to all sorts of people for different reasons. Many escorts work as a side hustle and
also have successful mainstream careers. They come from all over New Zealand and the
world – being an escort is a great opportunity to meet amazing and interesting people.

​

Q. What is the management like?

A. All the managers we work with are professional and reputable business owners, who follow best practice and ensure a safe work environment. They are well known and highly rated by many workers in the industry, NZPC, other agencies and online review websites.

 

Q. How are my photos used?

A. A good agency will not include your
face, tattoos, birthmarks, scars or any identifiable marks in any photos. They will not use your
photos anywhere after you decide to leave the industry. They will only publish your photos
after your approval, and you always have the right to request they be taken down from any
platform at any time.

 

Q. Do I need to have a model figure?

A. No, you don't. What we are really looking for are people who are honest, reliable, respectful, passionate, fast learners, friendly, easy going, forward thinking and caring. However, in reality certain body shapes can attract more works than others. You may get more jobs in one agency over others. We will assist you with finding the appropriate place to work.

 

Q. How do I apply?

A. You can email us directly at mysecretjobnz@gmail.com. One of our friendly team members
will get in touch with you as soon as possible. A no obligation meeting/interview will then be
arranged at a convenient location and time for you. It can be in a café, library, a park or
anywhere you prefer.

 

Q. What happens after the interview?

A. If you decide to pursue work in the industry, a professional photoshoot will be arranged at
the agency you choose. Your profile will be live online with your available hours. Initially, you will
rely on your online profile and management to get bookings. After you have worked for a
while, your bookings may increase as you establish your regular clients.
