Seller agreement

The agreement (draft)

This draft Seller agreement is intended to sit alongside the Terms of use and the Content rules. By creating a seller account you will be asked to accept this draft. Acceptance in the prototype records that you have read it; it is not a binding contract while it remains a draft.

You must be able to contract, and you must have the right to sell the files you list. You are responsible for your listings, the files you upload, any tax on your own income, and the accuracy of your payout details. Sellers based in Australia must give a valid ABN. Sellers elsewhere may add a local business or tax number where the form asks for one; it is optional.

Commission

The standard platform commission is 20% of the sale price, subject to a minimum fee of US$0.60. The fee is taken from the sale; the remainder is the seller share. Listing prices, commission, seller earnings and payouts are all in US dollars. Buyers may pay in their own currency; each sale is converted to US dollars at the exchange rate on the day of the sale, and your share is worked out on that US dollar amount.

Sellers are charged the founding rate of 15% for their first 12 months on Jaleni, after which the standard 20% rate applies. An administrator can change those rates, the founding period, and the minimum fee. The minimum fee still applies during the founding period.

Earnings hold (14-day)

Seller earnings stay on a 14-day hold after the sale before they become payable. The hold applies to both payout methods. It gives time for a buyer to report a problem, and for a refund or chargeback to be processed, before money is sent.

Payable earnings are paid once they reach the minimum payout of US$50.00. Smaller balances stay in your account until they reach it.

If a sale is refunded or reversed during or after the hold, both the platform fee and the seller share are reversed. If the seller share has already been paid out, we may claw that amount back (including by a negative payout entry or a deduction from later earnings).

Payout methods

Sellers choose one payout method in the dashboard.

Stripe Connect is available to Australian sellers. In this model, buyer card payments are treated as destination charges: the platform fee is collected as an application fee, and the seller share is paid out automatically to the connected bank account after the hold. Onboarding is a stand-in for Stripe Express in this prototype.

PayPal Payouts is available to sellers in any country. The seller share accrues on the marketplace after the hold, and is sent in an administrator-run batch to the PayPal email the seller has on file. This is the method intended for sellers outside Australia.

All charges and payouts in this prototype are simulated. No real Stripe or PayPal calls are made.

Listings, licences and refunds

New listings and material edits are reviewed before they go live (or before an edit replaces the live version). You grant us a licence to host, display, promote and deliver your listings, as described in the Content rules.

If we refund a buyer, or a chargeback or dispute is upheld, you authorise us to reverse the fee split as described above. Buyer rights under consumer law cannot be excluded. See the Refund policy.
