Brikl acts as your dedicated e-commerce business manager, taking the complexity out of running your online store. As a marketplace and Merchant of Record, we handle sales tax filings for all your stores—so the payouts you receive are pure profits.
We take care of the heavy lifting, including:
Collection of funds from customer orders
Order processing and fulfillment
Sales tax filings
Compliance and security
Customer service
Your payouts (profits) are deposited directly into your Stripe account, with payouts made twice a month.
What’s more, Brikl clearly distinguishes between payouts for orders we fulfill (on-demand) and those you fulfill yourself—ensuring full transparency and accurate reporting.
Payout Calculation for On-Demand Fulfillment
The math is simple! When we fulfill orders through our network of on-demand partners, we calculate your payout—the amount you receive—by subtracting the cost of goods, shipping fees, and the Brikl fee from the order total.
Order Total
This is the cart total at checkout, excluding taxes. Since Brikl is responsible for filing sales taxes for stores on its platform, taxes are considered a pass-through.
Cost of goods
This is the cost of the product itself. It’s an all-in cost which covers the cost of the product and decoration.
Shipping fee
This is the cost charged by the decorator for shipping the product to the customer.
Brikl fee
This is Brikl’s 3.5% commission fee, which includes Stripe's credit card processing fees and is applied to the order total (excluding tax).
Your payout
Consider this easy example:
In your store, you sell a $25 polo shirt at a 50% markup, so your COGS would be $25 and the markup would be $12.50. Adding $9.95 shipping, the selling price would increase to $47.45. Brikl charges a 3.5% transaction fee on the Cart Total amount (excludes sales tax), which would amount to $1.66.
Put simply, we’d collect $47.45 plus sales tax from the customer at checkout. After subtracting the COGS ($25), the shipping fee ($9.95) and the Brikl fee ($1.66), your post-tax profit for this transaction would be $10.84.
*Note: When a coupon is used at checkout, the payout will be adjusted accordingly to cover the cost of goods sold, and the Brikl fee will be calculated on pre-coupon Cart Total (excluding Sales tax).
Payout Calculation for Self-Fulfilled Orders
When you handle fulfillment yourself, your payout—the amount you receive—is calculated by deducting the Brikl fee and the payment fee from the order total.
