The handling fee on FijiPlaza is a 3% commission charged on all items purchased through the platform. This fee is used to cover the costs associated with running and maintaining the marketplace, such as server costs, customer support, and marketing expenses.
For example, if a buyer purchases a laptop that costs $700 FJD on FijiPlaza, the handling fee would be $21 (3% of $700). The total cost of the laptop including the handling fee would be $721 FJD.
It is important to note that this fee is only applied to the cost of the items and not to any shipping charges. The shipping fee is paid directly to the seller or the shipping company.
The handling fee is automatically added to the final purchase price of the item and is paid by the buyer at the time of purchase. Sellers do not need to pay any additional fees or commissions on their sales, however, they can adjust the prices of their items when loading them to offset this charge if they wish to.
It is important to note that this fee is only applied to items sold through the FijiPlaza platform and not to any sales made through manual payment or outside of the platform.
