To help In Search Of Powersports Parts run efficiently, we charge service fees on completed transactions. Listing In Search Of Ads and For Sale Ads is always free. However, when a For Sale Ad is sold or an ISO Ad results in a completed transaction, seller and payment processing fees are deducted.
Payment Processing Fee
A 3% payment processing fee is charged on the total transaction amount. This fee is paid directly to our payment processor, Stripe, and deducted automatically.
Seller Fee
A 10% seller fee is charged on the total transaction amount (item price + shipping). This fee is reduced for Power Sellers and deducted automatically from the seller’s payout.
Payout Methods (via Stripe)
Sellers can withdraw their available earnings through Stripe using the following methods:
Scheduled Payout – Once your bank account is connected, Stripe automatically transfers funds on a daily, weekly, or monthly schedule. Payouts typically arrive in your bank account within 2–5 business days, depending on your bank.
Manual Payout – You can manually transfer available funds to your bank account at any time. Funds typically arrive within 2–5 business days.
Instant Payout – For immediate access, Stripe allows you to transfer funds to a linked debit card. This option has a 2% fee per transaction. Funds usually appear in your bank account within minutes.
Fee Breakdown Example
If you sell a part for $200 and charge $25 for shipping (total sale = $225):
Seller Fee (10% of $225): $22.50
Payment Processing Fee (3% of $225): $6.75
Total Fees: $29.25
Net Payout to Seller: $195.75
(Power Sellers pay a reduced 8% seller fee, increasing their net payout.)
Seller Shipping Requirement and Cancellation Fee
Sellers are required to ship all items within 72 hours of a completed sale. If the buyer reports that the item has not shipped after 72 hours, In Search Of Powersports Parts reserves the right to impose a 10% cancellation fee, with a minimum fee of $10.
