Inbound — for artists who take international clients
No need to fly out.Clients come to Korea.
18.94 million international visitors came to Korea last year. No English, no deposits, no no-show worries — one link is all it takes to start.
Free beta · no business registration needed · we help you set up
Inquiries become bookings, and bookings fill your calendar.
Ever let an international DMslip through your fingers?
Whether you let it slide or never opened it because it felt like too much —
it was never a lack of inquiries. There was just no way to carry them to a confirmed booking.
Consulting in English
Negotiating a quote and a date in English is not something a translation app can carry.
Deposits
Bank transfers don't work from abroad, so a slot without a deposit is a no-show gamble.
Time zones
When the client is awake, the artist is asleep. The inquiry goes cold in between.
One link is all the setup you need
Same link — Korean for local clients, English for international ones.
01One consultation link in your profile
Same conversation — the artist in Korean, the client in English.
02Consultations translated by AI
03Deposit confirmed
Platform fee 0%
Deposits go directly to the artist.
You can stop worryingabout translation
However good AI translation gets, conversations that explain and negotiate have limits. So on INKKOO, those conversations simply aren't needed.
Quotes
No need to spell out prices in English. The numbers arrive as numbers.
Schedule
No time-zone math, no explaining your availability.
Deposits
No explaining your policy in English, no walking anyone through a transfer.
Placement
No describing and guessing in words. You see it with your own eyes.
All that's left to talk about
is the concept and the design.
Focus on the work.

A guest spot abroad is an expedition that starts in the red: flights, lodging, local fees. If the same clients can be brought to Korea instead, that cost structure flips. INKKOO doesn't create clients for you — it's the tool that carries the international clients already looking at your work all the way to a confirmed booking.
And these clients don't start searching after they land. They book before they leave home.
Only artists who can be booked at that moment make the shortlist.
Your work becomes
someone's reason to travel to Korea.

Frequently asked questions
Is it really free?
Yes. Every feature is free during the beta. We take no cut from deposits, and we'll let you know in advance before anything becomes paid.
Can I use it without a business registration?
Yes. We'll guide you through consultations and booking management, and through getting set up to receive deposits from international clients as an individual.
How do I receive deposits from international clients?
During the consultation you can send a deposit card with a payment link. The client pays with the method they already use abroad, and the money goes directly to you. INKKOO takes nothing in between.
What if my English isn't good?
That's fine. The conversation is translated in real time, and information that must not go wrong — prices, dates, placement — travels as cards that bypass translation entirely. You only ever reply in Korean.
Does the client need to install an app?
No. Clients tap the link in your profile and go from consultation to deposit on the web. There's no install barrier.
Does INKKOO bring me clients?
No. INKKOO doesn't run ads or promotion for you. It's the tool that takes the international clients already looking at your Instagram from inquiry to confirmed booking without drop-off.
Is tattooing legal in Korea?
The Tattooist Act passed the National Assembly in 2025 and takes effect in October 2027, and in 2026 the Supreme Court ruled that non-medical tattooing cannot be punished. INKKOO provides what the new system requires — consent forms and procedure records — alongside the booking tools.
