Fees, earnings, and proceeds readiness
Seller finance pages need fee visibility, proceeds setup status, refund reserve rules, tax readiness, and clear earnings math before launch.
Fee Preview
- Seller sees marketplace fee, card-auction fee, hub intake, packing, and pickup service lines before listing.
- Category-specific fees should be visible near format, reserve, instant buy, and fulfillment options.
- Fee explanations should be plain enough to reduce support tickets.
Earnings Snapshot
- Dashboard should show item price, accepted offer, auction close, service choices, and estimated seller earnings.
- Returns, reports, and holds should explain why an earnings release is delayed.
- Seller analytics should separate gross sales from estimated take-home amount.
Proceeds Setup
- Future platform state needs seller verification, proceeds account setup, refund reserve rules, and tax profile.
- This demo does not collect bank, tax, payment, or identity details.
- Operator readiness tracks the gap separately from the customer-facing commerce simulation.
