What Does an Employee Swag Store Cost, and How Long Does Setup Take?
An employee swag store shouldn't need a budget line or a project plan. Here's what it costs to run one on demand — and how fast it goes live.
An employee swag store on Brikl is free to open — no setup fee and no subscription — and a branded store goes live in minutes, about ten seconds with Turbo Store. Brikl charges 3.5% per transaction, so the store costs nothing until someone orders, and every item is produced on demand with no inventory to buy. See pricing and company swag stores.
In short:
- A Brikl swag store has no setup fee and no monthly subscription.
- Brikl charges 3.5% per transaction — you pay only when someone orders.
- A branded store goes live the same day, about ten seconds with Turbo Store.
- No inventory means no upfront spend on stock for any office.
What does an employee swag store cost to set up?
On Brikl, nothing up front. There's no setup fee, no subscription and no per-seat charge; Brikl takes 3.5% of each transaction. If you'd like a store built for you, Brikl's store-build service is a flat $99 for a simple store, and your first store build is free.
Are there ongoing or inventory costs?
No. Every item is produced on demand when an employee orders, so no office buys, stores or writes off stock. The only cost is the 3.5% per transaction, which comes out of the sale — there is no standing fee to keep the store open.
How long does setup take?
A branded store can go live the same day. With Turbo Store, a stocked, correctly priced store stands up in about ten seconds; adding your own products and branding takes minutes. For a company with several offices, the same store serves every location — see swag across multiple locations.
