Selling
Boost Your Listing
Pay-on-sale advertising: choose a rate from 2–10%, appear in Sponsored slots, and pay only when something sells.
What Boost is
Boost is optional advertising for your listing. You choose an ad rate between 2% and 10%. While Boost is active, your listing appears in Sponsored slots around Stonefjord — and you pay your chosen rate on each sale's proceeds. No sales, no cost. There's no upfront charge and no monthly fee.
Where your listing appears
Sponsored cards appear at every 4th position in browse and trending results, always marked with a Sponsored badge, and only to shoppers whose search and filters your listing already matches. Boost never changes the organic order of results — sponsored placement is additional visibility, not a re-ranking.
What it costs
Your chosen rate applies to the same amount as the seller fee: item price plus shipping, never tax. It's deducted from your payout alongside the standard seller fee — you'll see it as its own line. There is no minimum Boost fee: 2% of a small sale is exactly 2%. If an order is fully refunded, the Boost fee is returned with it.
Your first $5 is free
The first time you enable Boost, Stonefjord grants you a $5 promotion credit. It's applied automatically against your first Boost fees, never expires, and can't be exchanged for cash. Your remaining credit is shown on the Boost card.
Choosing a rate, and turning it off
A higher rate gives your listing more weight in the Sponsored rotation. Most sellers start at 3% and adjust from results. You can change your rate or turn Boost off anytime — it takes effect immediately, and you're never charged for sales made while Boost was off.
You're all set!
