Sellers on Pure pay a processing fee on each sale. The fee depends on two things: the item category (bullion, platinum/silver/palladium, or numismatic) and your seller tier. Everyone starts in the Copper tier and moves to lower fee rates as their total sales over a quarter increase. Tiers reset quarterly. Buyers do not pay a selling fee.
How is the seller fee calculated?
Pure charges one processing fee per sale, set by:
1. Item category: bullion, platinum/silver/palladium, or numismatic.
2. Your seller tier: based on your total sales over a rolling quarter. Selling more moves you to a tier with lower fee rates, and tiers reset quarterly. Fee rates may be updated over time. You can see your current tier in your dashboard under the Settings tab.
