When you commission a work or buy from the gallery, the payment is charged and held by payment protection — it is not passed to the artist until the work is delivered to you. This is a protection we operate as a platform, not a bank trust account. So you know the payment does not leave us until you have received the work, and the artist knows the fee is set aside for them.
From every sale, the artist receives 70% and the platform 30%. Framing, glass and museum-grade printing are paid add-ons selected at checkout — they're the platform's production costs, not the artist's.
When you pay: opening a brief costs ₪150. It is credited in full against the piece you choose, so for anyone who goes through with it, it costs nothing extra. It covers the work of the artists who create proposals for you, so it is not refunded if you choose not to choose. If we did not approve the brief, it is refunded in full. The balance is charged the moment you choose the winning proposal, before production, and held by us until delivery. Gallery purchases are charged at checkout.
