Read on and then click on the Registered Seller link above when you are ready to set up an account and create a listing.
The Process ~ in brief:
1 You post one, two, three or four listings whether it be an
“adventure” (an event or activity) or item. It is easy. You
simply type into each provided text box.
|
You create your own listing.
You determine its content.
You can amend it any time
at no additional cost.
And, you don't pay for it until you are ready to have it "go live" to the public... meaning you can create a listing to test the process without making a payment |
2 A “buyer” EITHER clicks on the website link (you provide) within your listings to be directed to your own website to view all that your business offers OR -if you have selected the e-commerce option -- purchases your adventure or item and pays for it online. (You select whether you want the e-commerce option or not during the listing process.)
3 When using the e-commcerce option, the “net” proceeds of the sale are immediately paid to you by being deposited into your PayPal account. (Net proceeds are the total sale less marketing fees and PayPal’s electronic processing fee - a total of 10% of the sale.)
4 You either ship the item purchased, OR you prepare for the arrival of the “buyer” on the date for which the adventure was purchased.
5 All communications are via email: Your listing is reviewed and approved via email. You are informed of a sale via email. You communicate with Country-Adventures via email. Your email account is the link to receiving the net proceeds into your account.
What is Required of You ~ in brief:
1 an email address; so as to receive notice of the sale of your event or item; and for staff to communicate with you as needed; the email address must be the same as that provided to establish your PayPal account. If you haven’t an email account, we suggest an online free service such as Gmail, which you can access at www.gmail.com.
2 acceptance of the terms and conditions; (provided online when you request to become a member and required in order to use the site) All of the program participation requirements are found in the Terms and Conditions. Please read it thoroughly.
3 ability to type a complete and detailed description of item or event for sale (and insertion of digital photos in a .jpg format further enhances that description. Photos are optional but highly recommended.)
4 a PayPal account ONLY IF YOU SELECT THE E-COMMERCE OPTION; Payments to you are made via PayPal, thus a PayPal account is required. If you haven’t one, there are instructions at www.paypal.com. There is no cost for an account and it generally takes less than 10 minutes to establish using a credit card number, or approx. three days to verify your checking account for deposits.
