Pricing FAQ

Common questions about fees, payments, and refunds

When do I get paid?

Payments are released to your account within 24 hours of order completion. You can withdraw to your bank account or PayPal weekly.

Are there any hidden fees?

No. The 15% platform fee is all-inclusive. There are no additional charges for payment processing, withdrawals, or account maintenance.

How does payment protection work?

When a customer places an order, their payment is held securely by Character Market. Once you deliver the work and the customer approves it (or the auto-approval period ends), the funds are released to you.

What payment methods do you accept?

Customers can pay with credit/debit cards, PayPal, and select regional payment methods. Creators can receive payments via bank transfer or PayPal.

Is there a minimum withdrawal amount?

Yes, the minimum withdrawal is $10. This helps us keep transaction costs low so we can maintain our competitive fee structure.

Do you offer refunds?

Customers are eligible for a full refund if the creator doesn't deliver within the agreed timeframe or if the delivery doesn't match the order requirements. Partial refunds can be arranged for scope changes.
