FAQ

Quick answers

Short answers for the questions that usually come up first.

Why model marketplace commission separately from platform fees?

Marketplace commission often acts like a sales payout or referral cut, so keeping it visible in dollar terms makes channel decisions easier.

Can I include a flat listing or admin fee too?

Yes. Use the flat fee field when a channel adds an order-level fixed fee on top of the percentage.
