Pricing

Free for buyers. Brands pay only when the marketplace wins them an order.

Buyers source free, always. Brands run their entire wholesale room free — catalog, imported buyer book, line sheets, every relationship they bring — with no subscription and no per-seat pricing. The marketplace takes 6% of the first order from each buyer it finds for you and 3% of that buyer's reorders, capped at $2,500 an order. After 24 months the relationship is yours, free.

Buyers: free

Sourcing on Apparel Market costs buyers nothing.

Verified discovery, the buying assistant, semantic search, saves, gated line sheet access, draft orders, and checkout handoff are all included for verified buyers.

Brands: no subscription, ever

Your portal, your imported relationships, your line sheets — free.

Import your catalog, buyer book, and order history; run your existing accounts on gated line sheets; see reorder timing in analytics. None of it costs anything, and relationships you bring are recorded as yours — zero commission on them, permanently. A fee exists only when the marketplace closes an order from a buyer it found for you.

The fee schedule

One fee, three rules — tied to orders the marketplace wins you.

No subscription and no per-seat pricing. Every fee is tied to a specific completed order from a buyer the marketplace found for you, computed from the order's own recorded relationship origin — auditable per order, capped, and scheduled to end.

Founding cohort terms

Founding members get concierge migration and a faster graduation.

The fee schedule above is the standard deal for every brand — not a founding perk. What the first 25 brands in the Founding Brand Program add is concierge migration — the launch team moves your catalog, buyer book, and order history for you — and a faster graduation: founding relationships go fee-free after 12 months instead of 24. Buyers join free and can apply to the Founding Buyer Circle for concierge matching. Reps and showrooms apply as Founding Showroom Partners.

Marketplace economics

Designed for wholesale growth, not seat-count sprawl.

The model is simple: no subscription, no per-seat pricing, no commission on the relationships you bring. The marketplace earns a capped percentage of the orders it creates — 6% on each new connection's first order, 3% on reorders — and every connection graduates to fee-free after 24 months. Import your buyer book and run your existing accounts on your own portal; the fee only ever touches a buyer the marketplace found for you.

Grow demand once you're live

Sponsored placements, when you want more buyer attention.

Live, verified brands can sponsor placement in buyer discovery — clearly disclosed, capped by budget and impressions, and reviewed before going live. Available from the brand workspace once your room is published.

Direct answers to the questions brands and buyers ask most about marketplace pricing.

How much does Apparel Market cost for brands?

There is no subscription and no per-seat pricing. Brands pay 6% of the first completed order from each buyer the marketplace finds for them, and 3% of that buyer's reorders — capped at $2,500 per order. Everything else, including the catalog, line sheets, and imported buyer relationships, is free.

Is Apparel Market free for buyers?

Yes. Verified buyers pay nothing — discovery, the buying assistant, semantic search, saved assortments, gated line sheet access, draft orders, and checkout handoff are all included.

Do brands pay commission on buyers they bring or import?

No. Relationships you bring are recorded as yours and are never charged a marketplace fee. Fees apply only to completed orders from a buyer the marketplace found for you.

When do marketplace fees end?

Each buyer connection graduates to fee-free status 24 months after its first completed order — 12 months for Founding Brands. After graduation, the relationship is yours, free, permanently.

What does the $2,500 fee cap mean?

No single order is ever charged more than $2,500 in marketplace fees, no matter how large the order is. Every fee is computed from the order's own recorded relationship origin and is auditable per order.
