FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Some common questions about selling on Swapee
As an artist on our platform, you earn commissions whenever your artwork is sold. Commissions are calculated over and above the base price, which represents our cost for the items. This means you're earning from the added value your art brings to each item.
Please note, depending on the customer's location, tax may be subtracted from the gross commission amount. This is in compliance with local tax regulations. Hence, your net earnings might vary slightly based on where your artwork is being shipped. Regardless, every sale contributes directly to your earnings, rewarding you for your creativity and effort.
To set up your shop on our platform, a few essential steps are required. First and foremost, completing your billing information is crucial as it enables payouts, allowing you to receive the commissions earned from your sales.
Secondly, uploading your artwork or products is the key to showcasing your talent and attracting potential buyers. The more comprehensive and diverse your portfolio, the more appealing your shop will be.
Lastly, although optional, we highly recommend setting a personal logo and banner image for your shop. These elements contribute to the visual identity of your brand, helping to distinguish your shop and making it more memorable to visitors. Taking the time to complete these steps thoroughly will set the foundation for a successful artist shop.
Payouts of your earned commissions are not automatic; they must be actively requested through your artist account. Once you have initiated a payout request, our team will process it within one week. The requested amount will then be directly transferred to the PayPal account that you've linked to your artist account. This ensures a secure and efficient way of receiving your earnings.
Remember to keep your PayPal account details updated in your artist account to avoid any payout delays.
To receive your earnings, you don't need a credit card. Our platform uses PayPal as the sole payment method for remitting your commissions. This simplifies the process and ensures security. By linking a PayPal account to your artist account, you can easily receive your payouts without the need for any additional financial information.
This method is both secure and convenient, making the process of receiving your hard-earned commissions straightforward and hassle-free.
Our platform encourages the sharing of all types of digital artwork, fostering a diverse and vibrant artistic community. However, it is crucial that you, as the artist, hold full rights to any artwork you upload. This means that the work must be original and not infringe on any copyright, trademark, or other proprietary rights. By adhering to these guidelines, we ensure a respectful and lawful environment where artists can safely display their creativity and talent.
