Payments

Payment options without hidden shortcuts

Online and offline purchase options follow different paths, but neither can bypass required platform fees.

Full online Stripe payment

Stripe collects the winning bid and buyer-responsible fees. The platform retains published application fees, seller-responsible commissions reduce seller proceeds, and the seller net is allocated to the connected account after the approved release event.

Asynchronous bank payments remain processing until Stripe confirms success. A processing status never authorizes cattle release.

Cash or check at pickup or delivery

This option is available only when the seller enabled the specific method. The cattle purchase price is paid directly to the seller, while all buyer and seller platform fees are separately charged or invoiced through Stripe. A release authorization is blocked until every required fee clears.

Never send payment credentials

Platinum never stores raw card or bank details. Do not email or message card numbers, online-banking credentials, or identity documents.
