Buyer’s Premium

1. INTRODUCTION

To continue delivering a high-quality, trusted, and scalable collectibles marketplace, Collektr applies a Buyer’s Premium on selected transactions.

This fee enables us to:

  • Maintain a secure and reliable transaction environment
  • Invest in platform improvements, buyer protection, and dispute handling
  • Support seller quality, curation, and ecosystem growth
  • Deliver a seamless checkout, logistics, and customer support experience

The Buyer’s Premium is transparently displayed at checkout before payment is completed.


2. SCOPE OF APPLICATION

The Buyer’s Premium currently applies to:

  • Auction purchases
  • Marketplace purchases

At this stage, Livestream transactions are excluded. Collektr may expand this feature to additional categories in future updates.


3. BUYER’S PREMIUM RATE

The standard Buyer’s Premium is:

  • 10% of the total cart item subtotal

Key clarifications:

  • The fee applies only to item value
  • It does not apply to shipping fees, taxes, duties, or other charges
  • The exact amount is automatically calculated and clearly shown at checkout

4. MINIMUM BUYER’S PREMIUM

To support operational costs on lower-value transactions, a minimum fee applies:

  • Minimum Buyer’s Premium: SGD 1.00

This means:

  • If 10% of the purchase value is below SGD 1.00, the fee will default to SGD 1.00
  • Example:
  • Item price: SGD 8.00
  • 10% = SGD 0.80 → Buyer pays SGD 1.00 (minimum applies)

5. CHECKOUT TRANSPARENCY

Collektr is committed to full pricing transparency.

Before confirming payment, buyers will see a complete breakdown including:

  • Item price
  • Buyer’s Premium
  • Shipping fees
  • Taxes or duties (if applicable)
  • Total payable amount

No hidden fees will be introduced after checkout confirmation.


6. REFUNDS AND ORDER ADJUSTMENTS

In cases of cancellations, refunds, or order adjustments:

  • The Buyer’s Premium will be reviewed and processed in accordance with the final order outcome
  • Adjustments will align with Collektr’s refund and dispute policies

7. POLICY UPDATES

Collektr reserves the right to update:

  • Buyer’s Premium rates
  • Minimum fee thresholds
  • Applicable categories and scope

Any changes will be communicated in advance where appropriate to ensure transparency and user awareness.
