Payments on Brandboom

How to accept payment for orders on Brandboom including options such as Stripe Standard and Stripe Express.

When your buyers place orders on Brandboom, you have many options for collecting payment on the platform depending on how the order is placed.

Stripe Express (Marketplace/Slope Net 60)

This is the newest payment option on Brandboom (also known as Brandboom Payments).  Eligible users will be able to take advantage of features such as:

• Guaranteed payment for orders placed on a marketplace such as Brandboom Marketplace
• Ability to offer and accept Slope Net 60 payments for eligible buyers for non-marketplace orders

Payments on Brandboom via Stripe Express provides an elevated, more secure experience for sellers.  For marketplace and orders using Slope Net 60, using Stripe Express is a mandatory requirement to facilitate payment.  For eligibility requirements, please see below.

Stripe Standard (Platform)

Stripe Standard (previously labeled as "Stripe" and "Stripe Direct" on Brandboom) allows direct credit card payments, typically used for non-marketplace orders.  This is a direct integration with Stripe that is simply a pass-through from Brandboom to your bank account.  Some features/important notes are:

• Stripe Standard is currently available in a wider selection of countries
• Stripe Standard will not allow Slope Net 60 payments, or access to Brandboom Marketplace
• As it's purely an integration, Brandboom cannot assist with any disputes for transactions using Stripe Standard

Which one am I eligible for?

To allow us to support as many customers as possible, we introduced both Stripe Standard and Stripe Express options.  We have brands and buyers across the world, and each region has its own special requirements.  Below is a table explaining the features of Stripe Standard vs. Stripe Express:

*What countries are eligible for Stripe Express?

The following countries are currently eligible for Stripe Express.  Eligibility means that your company address in Brandboom is listed below, and your bank and other documents we require for verification match that eligible country.

This list will be updated and will expand as soon as practicable.  For information on requirements to set up Stripe Express, please review this article.

FAQ

What if I am not in an eligible country?

You still have access to Stripe Standard!  While this currently excludes you from marketplaces or Slope Net 60, you can still accept credit card payments for your orders using our Stripe Standard integration.

If I have Stripe Express, how do I accept credit card payments for my non-marketplace orders?

Unfortunately, Stripe Express is not available for non-marketplace orders, you will need to setup Stripe Standard (which should only take a couple of minutes).

What's the difference between Marketplace and Non-Marketplace orders?

A marketplace order, such as via Brandboom Marketplace, means the buyer is purchasing from you through a specific portal such as this digital marketplace.  Typically, this means we assist with finding you new buyers, but sometimes it could be someone who you worked with before, and they have browsed and rediscovered you on this platform.  

For Marketplace orders:

• Every order is subject to a marketplace commission fee (please see marketplace for specific rates)
• Brandboom collects payment from the buyer via credit card or Slope Net 60
• Brandboom guarantees payment to sellers after successful delivery.  If the buyer doesn't pay, it's not your problem
• Brandboom assists with disputes

Non-marketplace orders are placed with you directly from buyers you know via a share link, or perhaps by yourself or one of your sales reps via our platform or iPad app.  You can get paid via:

• PayPal or Stripe Standard depending on your eligible region (standard Stripe transaction fees apply)
• Slope Net 60 (requires Stripe Express and will incur a commission fee for the loan)
• Cash, Credit Card using your own external system (i.e. Square, ApparelMagic, Shopify, etc...), Check/Cheque, or any other payment method not provided by Brandboom.  As Brandboom is not involved with these payment methods, we are unable to provide any support for these transactions, and you will need to refer to your provider.

What is Stripe Link?

Stripe Link is a wallet provided by Stripe to provide security for buyers.  This enables them to store their credit cards securely within Stripe's platform and use this wallet across multiple platforms, similar to Apple Pay, and other such wallets.
