PRICING & FEES

How fees are applied

  • Subscription is billed once per year on sign-up/renewal.

  • Transaction fee applies only to completed orders (no sale = no fee).

  • Payouts are released net of the transaction fee (and standard payment-gateway charges, if any).

K50
Yearly Subscription Fee
0.1%
Nominal Transaction Fee + K20 Fixed

Here's what you get for your fee:

  • List unlimited eligible products/services

  • Vendor profile + store category (Farmer / Aggregator / Transporter / Input Supplier)

  • In-app messaging/RFQs and basic analytics

  • Vendor verification badge (after KYC)

How payments work (Mobile Money)

  • Secure checkout: Buyers pay in ZMW through an accredited mobile money gateway (e.g., major Zambian wallets). They approve the charge on their phone (PIN/USSD/app). We never see or store PINs.

  • Funds held until delivery: Once paid, the amount is authorised and held (escrow-style). The order shows as Payment Authorised in your dashboard. Money isn’t released to the vendor until the buyer confirms delivery or the acceptance window expires (for perishables this window may be shorter, as stated on the order).

  • Payouts to you: After acceptance, the gateway releases funds net of the nominal transaction fee to your chosen payout method (bank account or mobile money wallet), following the posted payout schedule. An active vendor subscription (50 ZMW/year) is required to receive payouts.

  • Refunds & disputes: If an order is cancelled or a dispute is upheld, the gateway refunds the buyer to the same mobile money wallet. While a dispute is open, funds remain on hold.

  • Security & compliance: Payments are processed over encrypted connections; approvals occur within the mobile money ecosystem. We follow KYC and anti-fraud checks and keep detailed receipts for auditing.

Listing fees are billed for 0.20 USD, so if your bank’s currency is not USD, the amount in
your currency may vary based on changes in the exchange rate.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Here are some common questions about selling on Martfury

How do fees work on Zam Farm To Market?

  • Vendor subscription: 50 ZMW per year to access the vendor dashboard, list products/services, and receive payouts.

  • Transaction fee: A small fee per successful order (including transport jobs). It’s deducted from your payout only after the buyer confirms delivery (or the acceptance window passes). No sale = no fee.

  • Gateway processing: Payments run through a mobile money gateway. Any gateway charges are shown at checkout and reflected in your settlement.

  • Payouts: You’re paid net of the transaction fee (and any gateway charges) once the order is accepted.

  • Refunds/Disputes: If an order is refunded, charges are adjusted to the final settled amount.

Example: Sell 10 bags at your set price → buyer pays via mobile money → delivery accepted → we deduct the nominal transaction fee and release the net amount to your bank or mobile wallet.

    Go to /vendor-registration/, choose your Store Category (Farmer, Aggregator, Transporter, Input Supplier), and create your account.

    This unlocks the vendor dashboard, store page, RFQs, and payouts.

  3. Complete KYC

    • Individuals: NRC.

    • Companies: PACRA & TPIN.

    Add products/services with required specs (grade/moisture/packaging/min order), price per unit, province, and delivery option. Upload 2–3 clear photos.

  7. Submit & go live

    After verification, your store appears in the marketplace and you can start receiving orders.

  • Can I edit a live listing? Yes—price/stock/specs can be updated; changes apply to new orders only.

  • Any restricted items? Yes—unapproved chemicals, wildlife products, firearms, counterfeit goods, and regulated items without permits.

  • How are ratings/reviews handled? Buyers rate after delivery; repeated policy breaches lower visibility.

  • How long can buyers dispute? Typically 48 hours from delivery (shorter for perishables if stated).

How do I get paid?

  1. Set up your payout method

    In Vendor Dashboard → Settings → Payments, add your Mobile Money wallet or bank details and complete KYC. An active vendor subscription (50 ZMW/year) is required to receive payouts.

  2. Buyer pays via mobile money

    When an order is placed, the payment is authorised and held securely (escrow-style) until delivery is confirmed.

  3. Delivery accepted → payout released

    After the buyer confirms delivery (or the acceptance window expires with no dispute), we release your payout in ZMW, minus the nominal transaction fee (and any gateway charges), to your selected payout method per the payout schedule shown in your dashboard.

  4. Disputes & refunds

    If a dispute is opened, funds remain on hold until it’s resolved. Approved refunds are returned to the buyer; your payout reflects the final settled amount.

You can track every step (authorised → released) in Dashboard → Earnings/Orders, with transaction IDs and downloadable statements.

No. You can create a vendor account and activate your shop without a card.

  • Subscription (50 ZMW/year): Pay via mobile money at checkout.
