Features
Bot marketplace
In a bot marketplace the seller first deposits the skin into the site’s bot account. Because the bot already holds the skin, the buyer receives it instantly and doesn’t have to wait for the seller to come online and approve the trade. This method is ideal for sellers who can not constantly monitor sale notifications; it also avoids any penalties a site might charge if a seller misses an acceptance deadline. By handing the skin to the bot up front, the whole selling process becomes simpler and much less stressful.
Marketplace fee
Public sales incur a 8% seller fee, for skin sales above €1,000 the fee drops to 6%.
Private sales incur a 2 % seller fee.
No on-site balance
Skinport doesn’t have wallet system, once an item sells funds move directly from the buyer’s bank account to the seller’s bank account.
Marketplace fee
Skinport
A cut that is taken by the platform after a skin is sold. On all listed websites the fee is paid by the seller.
Trading fee
The difference between the user’s skin value and the site’s skin value. For example, if the user’s skin is worth $100, the same skin in the site’s inventory is priced at $110—a 10 % difference. That $10 gap represents the site fee.
Deposit bonus
