Once you list your products on our site, every order you receive can either fall into two categories of payment: Online payment or cash payment on delivery. Every online payment we receive on your behalf shall be remitted after 3 days or at the end of the week to the bank account you indicated in your shop setting. However, do take note that we will only remit to you the money for orders that have been fulfilled and completed. Therefore, once you deliver an order, you must ensure to send an email to contact@dattobs.com stating that the Order with the order ID number has been delivered and completed. If you have not completed the order and you mistakenly or willfully send an email indicating that you have delivered the order, then you have defaulted and your account will be suspended. In the case that a buyer is not satisfied with an order, it is your duty to resolve this amicably. It is either you receive the goods or services back and deliver a better one or you tell us to refund the money back to the buyer.

It is simply 10%. By selling on our site, you agree to pay Dattobs webstore a fixed 10% commission on the gross revenue from your sales made through the Dattobs webstore platform.

Please, know that it is the responsibility of the seller to deliver to the buyer at the time stipulated on the product description. Every seller must put in place an effective delivery or courier service that will ensure prompt delivery of their services. Again, every seller must ensure the average time of delivery is indicated on the product description and must comply with it. Any seller that shows the attitude of defaulting in delivering the order at the right time may forfeit his or her account.

Once again, every seller is responsible for shipping and delivering products to their customers.  Sellers must ensure they can deliver their products to the doorsteps of the buyers’ address. Please, don’t join if you can’t fulfill or deliver your products or services. Effective delivery services and pickups (in case of product return by buyer) must be put in place by you.

***Note: If your type of business will not support ‘cash on delivery’, ensure you indicate on the product description that you don’t accept cash on delivery. This is very important particularly if you drop ship to customer’s address and will not be physically available to take cash.

Once you login to your vendor’s dashboard, you will see all your orders by clicking the order button. More so, you will also get a mail notification.

Yes, all our buyers are protected. In the case that you make an ‘online-payment’ order from any of our sellers, we will keep your money in escrow until the order is fulfilled. If in the long run, you are not satisfied with the delivery and still can’t resolve it with the seller, we will make full repayment of your money back to you except if you paid on delivery. Any money you pay on delivery shall be resolved between you and the seller.

More so, every buyer must ensure to check the necessary information about a seller or product to be purchased. A Seller that does not indicate address, delivery time and other important information on the shop and product descriptions may turn out to be a  scam. Sometimes, positive reviews on a product page are indications of good customers’ experience.
