How Payouts Work: Commissions, Taxes, and the Monthly Cycle

May 2, 2026 5 min read

When you sell on PawVault, you’re not running a storefront business alone — we act as the merchant of record.

Commissions

  • Standard: 15% platform commission.
  • Verified creators: 12%.
  • Premium partners: 10%.

Tax, handled for you

We calculate, collect, and remit VAT/sales tax at checkout based on the buyer’s location. You don’t register for tax in every region to sell globally.

The payout cycle

Earnings accumulate and are paid monthly on the 15th, with a $50 minimum threshold. You can review every payout and the underlying tax records from your creator analytics dashboard.
