Frequently Asked Questions
1. What’s the difference between Marketplace and non-Marketplace orders?
A Marketplace order is a purchase a buyer makes through a specific portal like the Brandboom Marketplace. Brandboom helps with finding new buyers, and sometimes a buyer you have worked with before may rediscover you on this platform.
Every Marketplace order is subject to a commission fee.
Brandboom collects payment from the buyer via supported marketplace payment methods.
Brandboom guarantees payment to you after successful delivery.
Brandboom assists with payment disputes.
Non-Marketplace orders are placed directly with you by buyers you know, typically through a share link, or by you or a sales rep. You can get paid via:
PayPal or Stripe Standard (transaction fees apply).
Stripe (Link) allows ACH payments.
External systems like Square, ApparelMagic, or Shopify, as well as cash or check. Note that Brandboom cannot provide support for these transactions.
2. What if I am not in an eligible country for Stripe Express?
You still have access to our Stripe Standard integration, which allows you to accept credit card and ACH payments for your orders.
3. If I have Stripe Express, how do I accept credit card payments for non-marketplace orders?
Stripe Express is not available for non-marketplace orders. You will need to set up Stripe Standard, which only takes a few minutes.
4. What is Stripe Link?
Stripe Link is a secure digital wallet provided by Stripe that allows buyers to store their credit cards and Bank account number and use them across multiple platforms, similar to Apple Pay.
