Pricing and fees

Overview

Fee estimate and competitive price of a listing.

Before changing a price, the seller wants to know what the marketplace charges and which price wins the dispute. Two routes answer this per listing.

Where this fits in the journey: Grow and track.

Fee estimate

You send a price (or use the current one) and get the fees in cents: commission, fixed_fee, shipping and others. You also get the net amount: netAmountInCents = priceInCents × quantity - totalFeesInCents. It is a job, and the result is in the item. It works before publishing.

Competitive price

Shows, per binding, the status in the dispute (winning, competing, not_competing…), the priceToWinInCents and the suggestedPriceInCents. Reads our database, kept fresh by sync. A marketplace that does not report a field returns null.

A marketplace without these operations returns 422. See the capabilities of the Connection.
