CityMerchLink is built on real relationships, and that starts with being upfront about what everything costs.
For Vendors
$50 / month
What's included
First 3 months free. No credit card required to apply.
A platform fee of $1.00 + 0.5% per order is deducted automatically to cover payment processing for all parties. You'll always see exactly what you'll receive before accepting an order.
For Clients
Free — if your store makes 10+ sales/month
$20 that month. No questions asked.
For your first 3 months, you only need 1 sale per month to stay free. Plenty of time to find your footing.
What "free" includes
No setup fees. No contracts. No inventory risk.
Example: $35 order
The platform fee covers Stripe payment processing for everyone involved — no one needs their own merchant account. The fee scales with order size, so small orders cost less.
