The homepage publishes the full rate card. Online-arbitrage sellers pay $1.50 per unit for the first 1,000 units in a month, $1.35 for the next 2,000 and $1.15 above 3,000, with receiving, visual inspection, price-sticker removal, UPC covering, FNSKU labels, a standard poly bag and dunnage included. Wholesale and brand-direct inventory runs $0.85 per unit with a 500-unit-per-SKU minimum; private label is quoted. Bundles add $0.25 per extra unit, shoes are a $3 flat rate, and clothing, liquids and fragile items add $0.35. Medium items add $1.00 and small oversize adds $2.00. Storage is $10 per bin or $45 per pallet per month after free periods of 30 and 14 days, and the site says clients get ScanPower inventory software at no monthly cost. Cautions: new clients pay a $249 one-time setup fee and face a 300-unit monthly minimum, with a $49 fee in lighter months. Glassware, spray bottles and medium or large kitchen appliances are refused, and items over 5 lb or 18 inches need prior approval. The site has been live since March 2025, and onboarding depends on available space.
