EXPLAIN THE FEES, PLEASE!
At Makyn.me, we prioritize pricing transparency and believe that fees should be clear and easy to understand. We have designed our Shop Plans to address the pain-points voiced by Creatives selling their work online. Our goal is to simplify the fee structure and shield Artists and Creatives from unnecessary charges as much as possible.
Unlike other marketplaces with complicated fee schedules and excessive charges, we have taken a different approach. Makyn.me does not impose unnecessary fees that negatively impact Artists and Crafters. We want to build trust and help our Makyn.me Shops maximize their profits.
We understand that pricing can be challenging when there are hidden or complex fees involved. That’s why we have eliminated listing fees that penalize creativity with every listing. Our aim is to support the Creative behind the work and ensure they can earn a fair living wage without compromising their artistic vision. By reducing fees, we can also keep the prices of goods affordable for consumers.
As part of our commitment to providing value, we offer our Enhanced Shopping Program, where we share your work on popular social media platforms like Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, Google, and Pinterest, absolutely free of charge. Additionally, our Shops have the option to accept tips during the checkout process, allowing customers to show their appreciation directly.
Join us at Makyn.me and experience a platform where transparency, trust, and maximizing profit for Artists and Creatives are at the forefront of our mission.
Feel free to explore the Open Shop/Become a Vendor page to get started on your creative journey with us!
EASY FEE SCHEDULE
SALES FEE
Our Sales fee is exclusive to the Free Shop Plan! Free Shops are charged a nominal sales fee of 5% only when their listings sell in our Marketplace. This small fee is designed to cover the operational costs of the Community, enabling Shops to participate without any upfront expenses.
TRANSACTION FEE
Please note that all transactions are subject to Stripe’s direct Transaction Fee of 2.99% + $0.30 per sale. It’s important to understand that Stripe’s Transaction fee is separate from the Sales fee.
HELPFUL TOOL
Our free Art & Craft pricing calculator is an invaluable tool for Shop Owners. It enables them to set prices that accurately reflect material costs, labor expenses, and desired retail markups. Additionally, our calculator simplifies profit calculations by considering the specific Shop type and associated fees. As part of our commitment to fee transparency, these tools empower Shop Owners to anticipate their expected profits based on the suggested retail prices. We strive to provide practical and useful features within our Shop Services to support the success of our valued Shop Owners.
