When you sell an item on Drip, certain fees are deducted from your total sale amount before the payout is made. To help you understand how these fees are calculated and where to find them, we’ve provided step-by-step instructions below.

Where to Find the Fee Breakdown:

  1. Log In to Your Drip Seller Account:
    Start by logging into your Drip account and navigating to the Seller Hub.

  2. Go to the “Orders” Section:
    On the left-hand menu, click on Orders. This will take you to a page showing all your recent sales, including their status (e.g., shipped, pending).

  3. Select an Order:
    Find the order you want to review. If the order is marked as Shipped, you’ll see three dots (•••) next to it. Click on the three dots.

  4. View Order Details:
    From the dropdown menu, select Order Details. This will open a detailed breakdown of the transaction, including the price, shipping fees, commission fees, and payment processing fees.

Example of a Fee Breakdown:

Let’s take a sample order to illustrate how fees are applied:

  • Total Sale Price: $14.97

  • Buyer Paid Shipping: $5.97

  • Commission Fee (6%): $0.90

  • Payment Processing Fee: $0.73

In this example:

  • Drip charges a 6% commission fee on the item price (not including shipping).

  • The payment processing fee is a flat rate based on the payment method and order amount.

The total payout to the seller for this order is calculated as follows:
Price - Fees = $13.34

How to Calculate the Fees:

To calculate the fees Drip charges on any sale:

  1. Commission Fee: Multiply the item price by 6% (e.g., $14.97 × 0.06 = $0.90).

  2. Payment Processing Fee: Check the specific amount in the order details. Payment processing fees vary depending on the payment method used by the buyer.

Important Notes:

  • Shipping Costs: The buyer pays for shipping separately, and this amount is added to your total payout.

  • No Hidden Fees: All fees are transparent and can be reviewed in the order details for each transaction.

  • Accurate Records: Always refer to the Order Details page to verify the exact fees deducted for each sale.
