Day Pass, Multi-Day Pack Or Monthly: How Coworking Is Priced
Yes, you can use a coworking space for just one day. Most people choose between three simple ways to pay.
- By the day. You book a desk when you need one and pay for that day. It suits people who only need a desk now and then, or want a change from home.
- A pack of days. You pay for several days upfront at a lower daily price, then use them when it suits you. It suits people who come in a day or two a week.
- By the month. You pay one monthly price and come in as often as you like during access hours. It suits people who work from the same place most days.

Hot Desk vs Dedicated Desk: What Is The Difference?
A hot desk is a desk you use for the day. A dedicated desk is the same desk, kept for you.
Hot desk. You turn up, settle in for the day and take your things with you when you leave. It costs less because the desk is shared between members, so it suits people who are in and out. At Main Office, coworking gives you a desk for the day and lockable storage.
Dedicated desk. The desk is yours, so your screen and set-up stay put. It costs more because nobody else uses it. A Main Office dedicated desk also comes with 24/7 access, so you can come and go whenever you like.

Why Are Some Coworking Spaces So Cheap (Or So Expensive)?
The price usually comes down to four things. Compare these, not just the number on the page.
Location
Rent shapes the price, so central spaces tend to charge more than spaces in the suburbs.
Access Hours
Business hours and round-the-clock access are priced differently, so check which one you are being quoted.
What Comes With It
Reception, phone booths, meeting rooms, drinks and IT support all make a space work harder for you.
The Kind Of Desk
A shared desk costs less than one kept just for you, and both cost less than a lockable private office.
