A month ago today we were opening our doors and launching the platform. Understandably enough a lot has happened since. We've implemented a massive number of improvements both to our back-end and on the UX side - some of which you might have noticed already - and we've been astounded by the quality of products uploaded on the marketplace.

Our favorite thing to do every morning is browse the "recent" product section and marvel at all the goodness. No other marketplace comes even close to the standard we currently have and it's all thanks to the exceptional sellers who have been joining us.Today's blog is about one particular feature/change for sellers we've been working on in secret.

Selling directly to your audience?

You read that right. Cubebrush is now the cheapest platform to sell on when you sell directly to your audience. Here's how it works:

-Copy and share your new special links from your product pages:

-Whenever a purchase is made using the link, instead of the regular fees you'll now be charged 5% per transaction. That's it. Simple right?

We think so too! This way you'll make most of the profits for sales you generate on your own, and your customers will know 95% of the money is going to the artist - more than on any other platform.

Sales from the marketplace

Sales we work hard to generate on your behalf through our marketplace will now net you 70% of the profits. This will give us a little wiggle room to be able to compensate future affiliates for spreading the word about your products and helping you make even more sales.

As was already the case, all transactions still have a minimum fee of 50¢.

Win-Win

We love the new fee setup and we hope you will too! Sellers make way more profits for their hard work and the little more we make allows us to help everybody out even more than before!

But don't get us wrong, our platform is still in its infancy and we have a lot more features waiting to come out of the oven. The new fee structure is just one big step of many towards our bigger goal of being the one and only destination for artists. 2016 is just starting and we have big plans!

To wrap it up, here's a quick chart comparing us and our new-found special powers against the most notable competitors.
