Buyers pay no fees to use EMXLocker. The price you see on a listing is the price you pay (plus shipping, where applicable).
Listing an item is free. When an item sells, EMXLocker deducts two fees from the sale price before paying out the Seller:
| Fee | Amount | What it covers |
|---|---|---|
| Platform fee | 10% of sale price | EMXLocker hosting, escrow, dispute resolution, fraud protection |
| Payment processing | 3% + $0.30 | Passed through to Stripe (card processing, payouts) |
Sellers receive sale price − (platform fee + processing fee), transferred to their Stripe Connect account once the buyer's inspection window passes.
For an item sold at $1,000:
| Buyer pays | $1,000.00 |
| Platform fee (10%) | −$100.00 |
| Processing fee (3% + $0.30) | −$30.30 |
| Seller receives | $869.70 |
Shipping costs are arranged by the Seller and are separate from the sale price. Sellers may purchase discounted labels through EMXLocker's shipping integration; label costs are paid by the Seller at the rate quoted by the carrier.
If a sale is fully refunded, the platform fee is returned along with the sale price. Stripe's processing fee may not be recoverable depending on the timing of the refund — see Stripe's published policy. Partial refunds reduce fees proportionally where applicable.
For full refund eligibility and the dispute process, see our Refund & Return Policy.
All fees and amounts on EMXLocker are quoted in U.S. dollars (USD). International buyers may incur currency conversion fees from their card issuer; these are outside EMXLocker's control.
EMXLocker may update its fee schedule from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with a new "Last updated" date and will apply to sales completed after the effective date. Listings created before a fee change continue under the previous schedule until they sell or are relisted.
