When a Buyer Purchases
You receive a notification email when someone buys your item. The order appears in My Sales with a "Buyer Paid" status.
Accepting an Order
Open the order from My Sales. Review the buyer information and payment amount, then decide:
- Approve -- Confirms the order and captures the buyer's payment
- Cancel Order -- Cancels the order and automatically refunds the buyer
Shipping the Item
Once you accept an order:
- Package the item securely
- If a prepaid label is available, click Print Ship Label; otherwise enter the tracking number and click Save Tracking (the carrier is detected automatically)
- Click Shipped -- the order status changes to "Out for Delivery"
Tracking & Delivery
The buyer receives a shipping notification with your tracking information. The order status automatically updates to "Item Delivered" when the carrier confirms delivery.
Completion & Payout
The buyer confirms receipt of the item, or the transaction auto-completes after a delay. Once completed:
- Status changes to "Completed"
- Payout is initiated to your Stripe account
- See Getting Paid for payout timing and details
