Figures show the transaction fee on total DtC sales at Corksy's entry rate of 1.25%, on top of each platform's monthly fee. Corksy's rate eases at higher revenue tiers, so savings at larger volumes will be smaller; both exclude card-processing fees. Corksy's plans and rates change, so check corksy.io/pricing before relying on these. Correct as of June 2026.
