What Does it Cost?

To open a Basic Shop is absolutely FREE.

Every item you sell has a base price associated with it. This represents our cost in manufacturing the item or for providing the service. You can then mark up the base price to sell your item for whatever you like. InfoShop then takes 15% of the retail sale price. Out of this margin Infoshop pays an attractive affiliate commission to its members who refer more shop owners and buyers to our community. The balance is all yours!

There are also absolutely no transaction limits!

You also have the option of upgrading to a Premium Shop. If you are serious about the possibilities of making serious money on InfoShop then check out this service. For a minimal monthly fee you get a host of extra features to customise your store to help you sell more.  Learn more...

What are base prices and InfoShop commissions?

Base prices for every product can be found in our Product Centre. The base price is the amount that we keep for each item sold which covers our core costs. The InfoShop commission is 15% of the sale price which covers the affiliate fees, merchant fees and our profit. The amount that you charge over these is your profit!
