Tax and fee estimate
Review how a buyer can understand item price, service lines, pickup or shipping choices, credits, estimated taxes, and receipt impact before the payment boundary.
This route is review-only and does not request tax records, payout data, payment credentials, address entry, or identity details.
Next step: compare the total before checkout review
Use this page to see which charges are item price, handoff services, credits, estimates, and receipt impact before returning to checkout review.
Buyer Total Preview
- Item price, accepted-offer price, auction closeout price, quantity, seller terms, and credits stay visible in one review.
- Totals should refresh when a buyer changes shipping, hub pickup, local pickup, rewards, or split credit choices.
- The demo uses fictional totals and stops before payment, order creation, address entry, or private tax details.
Service Lines
- Hub intake, item check, packing, pickup release, shipment, insurance, and event service lines should be named separately.
- Seller-funded discounts, buyer-paid services, rewards, and support-issued credits should never be blended into one vague adjustment.
- Each line needs a plain reason so a buyer can understand what changes when the handoff choice changes.
Estimated Taxes
- Checkout review should show tax as an estimate until launch tax rules, address validation, exemptions, and marketplace owner approval are connected.
- International routes need separate duty, import tax, restricted-category, and return-cost notices.
- Tax estimates should be informational in the demo and should not ask visitors for tax IDs, documents, or private billing details.
Exemptions and Adjustments
- Exemption states should show as review-only status labels until permissioned review, expiration, and supporting records exist.
- Refunds, partial cancellations, undeliverable shipments, and missing-item reports need clear tax and fee adjustment records.
- Support should be able to explain why an estimate changed without exposing private customer data to the seller.
Seller Statement Impact
- Seller statements need gross item value, marketplace fee, hub service lines, shipping deductions, refunds, credits, holds, and release status.
- Seller-facing fees should match the buyer receipt and settlement ledger while keeping buyer contact details private.
- Disputed fees should link to support evidence, return status, payment dispute review, and owner approval history.
Owner Approval
- Owners should approve tax estimate wording, service-line labels, fee rules, refund adjustments, exemption display, and receipt fields.
- Launch review should confirm checkout, cart, receipts, tax records, seller payouts, settlement, support, and notices tell the same total story.
- Rollback should pause new checkout totals while preserving receipt previews, cart snapshots, and support evidence.
