Getting paid:
Once delivery is confirmed, payment will be released to you within 3 business unless the customer files a complaint. If the customer has any issues, they can contact you within 3 business days.
Seller’s Fee:
We current charge sellers a low sales commission of 8% on total value of every completed order. Total order value includes product price as listed by sellers, shipping charges if charged separately from price, and taxes where applicable. We advise sellers to consider this when setting their product prices, especially where free shipping is offered. For example, item listing price is $50, shipping cost is $15, 5% sales tax = $3.25. Total sales will therefore be $68.25. NoraThread sales commission will be $68.25 x 8% = $5.46.
Payment Processing Fee
Please bear in mind that sales commission charged by NoraThread is exclusive of payment processing fee charged by payment processing gateways such as PayPal, Stripes, Direct Bank Transfer, and others. Please add Gateway Fee to your listing price to avoid underpricing of your products. For example, Paypal charges 3%+$2.80 for each transaction, while Stripes charges 3%+$3.5 per transaction.
Listing/Account Fees
Currently, NoraThread does not charge listing or account fee. This is to reduce sellers costs and help them make more profits. NoraThread however reserves the right to charge these and other necessary fees as it deems necessary at anytime to help cover business running costs. Where this happens, NoraThread cannot be held liable or accountable for this decision.
