Three ways to sell on Sellub

How pricing works

What does commission mean?

Commission is the percentage of each successful sale that Sellub keeps to operate the platform — the rest is paid out to you. The exact rate depends on your plan and where the sale came from.

Why direct sales cost less than marketplace sales

When you bring the buyer yourself (your own domain, app, link or campaign), Sellub charges a lower commission because we did not source the customer. When a buyer finds your product through Sellub's marketplace search, homepage, categories or recommendations, a higher rate applies.

How marketplace discovery works

If you turn on Marketplace Discovery, your products appear in Sellub marketplace search, categories and recommendations alongside other sellers. Sales from those surfaces use the marketplace-attributed commission rate. Turn it off to keep your products available only through your own surfaces.

How payouts work

Each successful sale settles via Paystack split-payment: the buyer pays once, your share lands in your linked subaccount automatically (minus commission and Paystack fees). You can review every payout in your dashboard.

How API checkout pricing works

On the Commerce API plan you pay a fixed monthly subscription plus a small transaction fee on every successful payment processed through the API. Sales attributed to the Sellub marketplace use a higher rate; sales from your own app or website use the lower direct rate.

How Paystack / MoMo processing fees work

Paystack and the mobile-money networks charge their own processing fee per transaction (separate from Sellub's commission). It is deducted from the gross amount before your payout — you'll see it itemized on every order.

How featured listings and ads work

Featured listings buy you premium placement in marketplace surfaces for a flat fee or monthly bundle. Performance ads are pay-on-results — you only pay a small percentage when the ad drives a successful sale.
