Platform Fees & Payout Policy
Effective Date: July 22, 2026 | Document Revision: 2.5 | Statutory Framework: Escrow Agent Licensing Regulations & FTC Affiliate Disclosure Guidelines
1. Registration & Onboarding Sign-Up Fees
In order to offset administrative verification, Know Your Customer (KYC/KYB) background checks, and identity provisioning expenses, FURRT assesses a mandatory one-time non-refundable sign-up fee upon registration of new Seller and Affiliate accounts.
Payment of the onboarding registration fee is a prerequisite for account activation. In the event of account termination due to policy violations, onboarding fees are strictly non-refundable.
2. Platform Broker Commission Deduction
FURRT retains a platform broker commission on the Gross Merchandise Value (GMV) of all completed transactions. The platform commission is deducted automatically by Escrow.com at the time of final escrow disbursement.
3. Multi-Tier Affiliate Commission Rules
Affiliates participating in the FURRT Referral Network earn commissions calculated on completed order GMV:
- Tier 1 (Direct Referrals): 5% commission on GMV of orders placed by direct sub-referred Buyers.
- Tier 2 (Sub-Affiliate Referrals): 2% commission on GMV generated by Buyers referred by secondary affiliates in the user's referral tree.
Affiliate payouts vest 14 days following order status transitioning to COMPLETED. Affiliates must comply with FTC disclosure guidelines (#ad, #affiliate) on all promotional links.
