Frequently Asked Questions
Quick answers to the most common questions about booking, rates and delivery at Voices.
How do I start with commercial voice-over on Voices?
- Choose a voice from the grid and listen to demos per actor. Compare style and price before you pay. No waiting for quotes. After your briefing, the recording will follow; most projects are ready within 24 hours.
How much does commercial voice-over cost?
- Each voice profile includes rates per medium. Select the medium (radio, TV, online) and buy-out duration. You'll see the exact amount before payment, allowing you to plan your budget without any surprises.
What is buy-out for commercial voice-over?
- Buy-out is the fee for using the recording on a medium for an agreed period. You see this per medium on the profile before you pay. This way, you know in advance where your commercial can run and what it costs.
How quickly can the audio for my spot be delivered?
- Every minute counts in the advertising world. As soon as you place your order, the actor gets to work. We often deliver the finished audio within one business day, so your editing doesn't get delayed.
Can I get live direction for my commercial voice-over?
- Yes, it's optional. With live direction, you can guide the tone of voice during the recording. This is useful for spots where nuance makes a difference. You see the surcharge before you book.
What if my brand name is mispronounced?
- We always suggest you add the phonetic pronunciation for complex brand names in your brief. If the voice actor makes a reading error, we will correct it as soon as possible.
How does recording work?
- Commercial voice actors record in professional broadcast-quality home studios. This means you don't need to hire a studio, you get a quick turnaround, and audio ready for TV, radio, e-learning, or online use. You receive the recording digitally after approval.

Are revisions included?
- Revisions are free only when the voice actor made a mistake, such as a wrong word or pronunciation that does not match your script or brief. Script changes or new wishes after approval are not a revision: we quote those separately.
Can my company pay by invoice?
- Yes. After checkout you receive an invoice; business accounts can use Peppol e-invoicing. You see your rate before you pay on the pricing page.
