Currency Conversion

All payments on your giftboox bill are in HK Dollars. If you list in a currency other than HK Dollars, your item price will be converted to HK Dollars before the transaction fee is applied. Currency conversion is handled automatically by PayPal payment processing service.

 

Fee

Shop Owner Fee: Listing fee + Transaction fee

 

Listing Fees

Each product listing on giftboox costs $3 HKD per 3 months (approx. $0.38 USD/3 months) when the listing is published at first day. A listing will last for 3 months or until the item is sold. After 3 months if the item has not been sold, then the listing expires. Listing fees are added to your giftboox report page. Moreover, giftboox offers 15 free listing products for each shop.

You may easily renew expired, sold or active listings if you like. A renewed listing is given a new expiration date in 3 months from the renewal date. Renewal listing fees are added to your giftboox report page after a day of renewal date.

Each listing fee unit is for 1 product with 1 item price.

Listing fee is calculated based on “Number of Design Content per Product”.

Example1: a T-shirt with an image, which has size and colour options. All are the same image - it counts 1 listing fee no matter order quantity.

Case1: 
Take a “Plain T-shirt” as a Product example, which contains different sizes and fabric colours.
Listing fee will be calculated as “1” when the T-shirt is being published.
When the T-shirt is bearing a design (eg. a silkscreened graphics) and both the Plain T-shirt and the Silkscreened T-shirt are being published, the Listing fee will be calculated as “2”.

Case 2:
When a Poster is being published which contain 3 different sizes (eg. A3, A2 and A0), the Listing fee will be calculated as “1” since there is only 1 Design Content for this Product.
But if you want a T-shirt product have image options, listing fee will be count by number of images. You should list them separately.

Example 2: Same image poster has size options with different item price - it counts only 1 listing fee no matter order quantity.

The listing fee will deducted from your Alternate giftcooin Balance.

 

Transaction Fees

There are 2 types of Listing – Paid listing and Free listing. Transaction fee will be calculated differently in each listing type.

When you make a sale on giftboox, you will be charged a transaction fee of 5% of the list price* for the Paid listing product or 10% of the list price* for the Free listing product. This percentage does not include the shipping cost or tax. Transaction fees are added to your giftboox bill. Paypal service charge of each partner (giftboox and individual shop) will be paid by each partner with proportionally.

* List price refers to product’s listing price without any discount or special offer​

 

Advertising Fees

giftboox offers advertising opportunities to increase the visibility of your items and shop. Advertising fees vary by opportunity. Advertising fees will be clearly outlined before you commit to purchasing an advertisement. Advertising fees are added to your giftboox bill.

 

Billing

Once the buyer confirmed the acceptance of goods, shop owners can go to the "k report" page at their shop mode. A summary of “Your Sales”, “Alternate giftcooin Balance” and “Shop Owner Fee” will be recorded there.  

Your Sales - Upon expiry of the 15 day after-sales-service period, giftboox will arrange to transfer the order balance (after deduction of transaction fee) 
and the shipping cost to the shop’s PayPal account.  Shop owners should encourage the buyer to confirm acceptance within 15 days to receive bonus 
giftcoon(s).  If the buyer takes no action, acceptance is taken for granted by the 15th day of the arrival.  After-sales-service period always starts from 
the acceptance date.

Alternate giftcooin Balance - This is the balance for all used giftcooin by customers in the completed orders. When the alternate giftcooin balance reaches HKD1,000 (approx. USD130), giftboox will transfer the amount (after deduction of the listing fee) to the shop’s PayPal account.

Shop Owner Fee - Listing fee will deducted in your alternate giftcooin balance. And transaction fee will deducted in your sales of each order.

PayPal service charge - There will be a service charge by PayPal to both parties (giftboox and individual shop) at each payment. Shop owners are to check their own PayPal account for details of the PayPal service charge.  The same will not be recorder in the "k report" page. 

 

Shipping

All products are to be shipped directly from shop owner to the delivery address specified by the customer.

giftboox uses PayPal as payment method including all shipping cost.
The shipping cost will depend on the origin, destination and logistics of the package. If you add signature confirmation or insurance, those fees will be added to the total cost of the label at the point of purchase.

Please confirm the exact shipping cost before buyer pay the order, because you cannot change it after that.

Shop owner needs to complete the shipping details for each order, which include “Start Shipping” date, “Estimated Arrival Date”, “Tracking Number” (Type ‘None’ if there is no tracking number).  Upon shipment, the shop owner should request receipt from the Carrier or the Post Office. This receipt MUST be uploaded at the "Shipping Receipt” in the "g orders" page after your product being shipped.
