BOTS to open a Market Place

When talking to our Members it appeared clearly to us that artists are sometimes struggling to find the right vehicle to sell their work. Many platforms are available but often involve upfront costs - with no guarantee of sales - or are taking an heavy cut on the sale.


With that in mind we have decided to create the BOTS Market Place! This part of our website will allow any of our Premium Members to sell their work to any of our visitors.

Although we will have to pass on the cost of the payment processing through Paypal (about 35p for a song, 4% of the item cost for anything else), Be On The Scene will not make any profit on the sell of the work and our artists will be able to use this service for free. Hence our Premium Members will only occur a cost if their work is selling.

The BOTS Market Place is currently under test and due to open to artists in the coming weeks for them to upload their work, and to the buyers very soon after that. If you are interested to sell your items and help us test it, feel free to contact us at contact@beonthescene.com


If the platform takes off like we hope, we will be moving away from Paypal in about a year to reduce the payment processing fees, and allow even more profit to our Members.

Thank you for supporting us!

Rich.
