Is the 6.5% fee really forever?
Yes. Forever. Every sale, every channel — online and market day — for as long as your account is active. It never changes, never increases.
What happens if I cancel?
Founding status is permanently retired if cancelled. It cannot be reinstated. This is why the fee is so low — it's a lifetime commitment from both sides.
Can I pay in installments?
Yes. Both tiers offer 3-payment plans via Affirm or Klarna. Founding Cottage Pro: 3 × $333. Founding Farmstand: 3 × $433. Full access begins immediately.
Is there a sales minimum?
Yes — $200/month in sales to maintain founding status. Months below that threshold are charged $24.99 (the standard Pro rate). Very achievable for active sellers.
What's the difference between the two tiers?
Both include 6.5% forever and all Cottage Pro features. Founding Farmstand adds priority access to all future SellFood Market perks and the Farmstand name reservation for Year 2.
What if all 100 spots are claimed?
The founding offer is permanently retired. Round 2 Charter Members can purchase at $1,299/$1,599 but pay standard 10% fees. The 6.5% rate is gone forever.
Does the affiliate cost come out of my earnings?
No. Affiliate commissions come entirely out of SellFood's share. You always see a flat 6.5% — never more, regardless of referral activity.
When does access start?
Immediately upon payment. Your account is upgraded to Founding status right away — all features, all perks, active from day one.
