You can have as many products as you like in your store. However, if you need my help to setup your products for you, there is a limit of only 3 products to be loaded and prepped for you. After training and showing you how to add products yourself and manage your store properly, you are free to add as many as you like, given that the products meet our criteria of what is appropriate for our marketplace ofcourse.

The Field Collective is a brand new marketplace created to help friends and family from our church community launch and sell their own products. We charge a small subscription fee of $18/m ($216 annually) only to cover the basic costs of running the online platform and tools we need. There are no commission or percentage cuts on sales.

The only fees you need to keep in mind is a small transaction fee that gets taken by third party payment processors like Visa, Mastercard, PayPal, Stripe etc. This is outside of our control and you need to factor in 2.9% + $0.30 per transaction on every product sold.

This means for example if you sell a product of $100 the transaction fee that will get deducted from your earnings will be about $3.20. The Field Collective will therefore only be able to pay out earnings to you of $96.80 so keep this in mind when you work out your product cost and profits etc.

Store owners are responsible for shipping out their products to the customer as a sale comes in. Each store owner has access to their personal product portal where they can keep track of sales, upload new products, descriptions, pics, keep track of stock and stats etc and manage their storefront from.

When a product is sold on The Field Collective, you will receive an email notification. You can then log in to your product portal dashboard and have access to all the information you need to ship and fulfil the order to your customer. It is expected that shipping and handling is actioned as soon as possible so the client is not kept waiting. Generally speaking this is within a day or two max. Training is provided on this process once you are signed up and ready to launch.

As far as shipping cost is concerned, because we are a multivendor site and do not ship multiple products in an order from a single address, we offer 'Free Shipping' in our store so as not to conflate multiple shipping prices added on top of an order where say the customer bought 3 products from 3 different stores. This means, you will have to add your shipping cost to the price of your product.

So for example, say you are selling a mug and you want to retail it for $15, but it costs you $7 to ship, your selling price in store should be $22 to include your shipping fee so that you are not out of pocket on the shipping expenses and it is factored into your product cost and profits. Also don't forget the transaction fees that will be deducted. So say your cup sells for $22, you will receive around $21.06 payout from The Field Collective.

As mentioned in previous answers, payment fees (2.9% + $0.30 per transaction) are automatically deducted from sales by third party payment processors at the time of a transaction and The Field Collective can only payout the amount that lands in our account to you (otherwise we run at a loss as we are not charging you any extra commission or fees to make profits). So factor in that small amount when pricing your products.

Payments are processed and payed out every Friday afternoon. So if you make a sale on a Wednesday, only expect the payment to land in your account on that Friday.

You are more than welcome to ship oversees to wherever you like. Most print on demand service providers make this super easy to do without you needing to do the heavy lifting on logistics. However, in order for me to setup your shipping preferences for your products, I will need to know the exact countries that you can ship to so that when customers get to checkout they can see whether shipping is available to their country for that specific product.

Not all stores offer international shipping, so if a customer has in their cart, let's say, earrings that ships to Australia only and one of your products that ships internationally, they should get a warning that the earrings cannot be shipped to them. Hence I need to setup your shipping preferences in the backend for you, so you need to let me know your shipping destinations. Remember to factor in shipping cost into the price of your product as our store runs a 'free shipping' policy.
