How much will I make per item?

List your items at wholesale to recover your cost, or price below wholesale if you'd like to move inventory faster. You’re always in control and can adjust pricing at any time.

You can also use our Price Drop feature, which automatically lowers prices over your chosen timeframe to help move inventory—so you don’t have to think about it.

How much does the average retailer make each year on Max Retail?

On average, retailers on Max Retail receive $38,400 in payouts each year, helping improve cash flow and free up space for new inventory.

Larger or enterprise sellers earn over $250,000 annually on average, depending on the amount of inventory listed.

How and when will I get paid?

All payments are securely processed through Stripe. Once your shipping label is scanned, your payout is automatically sent via ACH directly to your bank account.

No waiting, no hassle.

What about returns?

All sales on Max Retail are final.

If a return request ever comes up, our team handles it on your behalf. As long as the correct item was shipped and it wasn’t damaged, you won’t be responsible for the return.

Can you sell handmade items?

At this time, Max Retail does not support handmade items on the platform.

Our marketplace works best for retailers carrying recognizable designer and contemporary brands. As we continue expanding our sales channels, this may change in the future.

If you’d like to be notified if handmade items become eligible, feel free to contact our team.

What if a customer has questions about the item?

Leave that to us. The Max Retail team handles all customer inquiries across every marketplace, so you can stay focused on running your store.

Can I sell single units?

Yes. Whether you have one item or thousands, you can list it on Max Retail. The more inventory you list, the more you sell.

Can I continue to sell my merchandise in-store and on Max Retail at the same?

Yes. Your inventory stays in your store until it sells.

You’re always welcome to continue selling the item in-store while it’s listed on Max Retail. We want you to sell it for as much as possible — so if it sells in-store for more, even better!

Do I need to sign a long contract?

No. There are no long-term contracts. You can stop or pause selling on Max Retail at any time.

How do you preserve my anonymity?

Your business name is never shown on any of the marketplaces where your items are listed.

When an item sells, we simply ask that you remove any tags identifying your store or location before shipping. This ensures your store remains completely anonymous.

Will I be charged tax?

No. Transactions on Max Retail are considered B2B (business-to-business), so there are no sales tax implications for sellers.
