How does Payment work?
All online payments go through a secure third-party merchant called Stripe. This requires all sellers to verify their identity, usually with a legal state ID card. If you are making a local purchase, it is up to you and the seller which form of payment works for both of you. You can still use Stripe through our platform, or you can use cash, Venmo, PayPal, ETC. Please note, anytime using Stripe, you will pay a 2.5% fee.
Why do we charge a 2.5% fee?
This is to fund the website itself. Unfortunately, the services used to host this website are not free. There are several recurring monthly costs we must cover.
