How it works.

Three parties. One rule.

When you buy

Four steps from browse to doorstep.

  1. Browse the market

    Search by category, material, or maker. Every listing shows the shop behind it.

  2. Find something made by a real person

    Every seller on Sampo is the person who made what they sell. Dropshipping is blocked at the database level. No resellers.

  3. Buy it

    Checkout shows every fee as a labeled line item. Your 0.5% platform fee appears separately. Nothing is hidden in the item price.

  4. It ships from the person who made it

    The person whose name is on the shop packs and ships your order. That is the only way it works here.

When you sell

Five steps from sign-up to payment.

  1. Sign up and connect Stripe

    Create your account and complete Stripe Connect. There is no application queue. Your shop goes live as soon as your Stripe account is ready to accept payments.

  2. List what you make

    Add your products, photos, and shipping details. Your listings are visible immediately.

  3. Orders arrive

    Buyers find you through search and browse. No seller can pay to rank above you. Discovery reflects the work.

  4. You ship

    Pack the order and mark it shipped. Buyers receive tracking. The platform handles payment holds.

  5. You get paid

    Funds transfer within two business days. Fees start at 5% and only go down as your sales volume grows.

What Sampo does

The platform enforces three things without exception.

No paid rankings

Search results reflect the work. No seller can pay to appear higher. The first result you see earned it.

Fees that go down

Apprentice sellers keep 95%. Master sellers keep 98.5%. The rate only moves one direction as GMV grows. It never reverses.

Dropship enforcement

Detection runs at the database level. Listings that fail it do not appear. This is not a policy. It does not rely on reports.
