That's not accurate. 75% is the maximum commission for sellers with 55% being the starting rate. 35% is the minimum and applies to themes sold non-exclusively.

- ricricucit 13y agoStill sounds quite a lot for doing "the marketplace job" which in the case of wrapbootstrap is allowing a developer to simply sell with paypal. A minimum of 35% (due to exclusivity) and a maximum of 75% to have a "buy with paypal" button. Now it's more accurate...but still sounds like ripping developers off to me. (that's, obviously, why HTML5 Admin is not listed there or themeforest or whatever)
- coderdude 13y agoIf you build it, they won't necessarily come. Marketplaces provide a channel for discovery.
- ricricucit 13y agowhat do you mean with "If you build it, they won't necessarily come"?
- coderdude 13y agoGaining exposure is difficult and it's not guaranteed that people will flock to what you've built.
- ricricucit 13y agoagree. but it shouldn't be a reason to get a min of 35 and a max of 75%. Just wondering tho...are you working at wrapbootstrap or themeforest? ...or...have you ever tried to sell a template?
- coderdude 13y agoI own WrapBootstrap.
- ricricucit 13y agonow everything makes more sense. (but i still believe in what i've said) Plus: since i've the honor to talk to you...i was thinking about joining wrapbootstrap...but you have ACE Admin (and others) which, for people that just upload their first template, are "way too much on top". That really didn't help me (and really doesn't help new comers)...it's what i actually believ being a big problem of wrapbootstrap. Do you see that as well?
- coderdude 13y agoThe competition is getting intense but new themes are often able to gain footing on the frontpage. Genyx, Genius, and PIXMA are examples of themes released in the last few weeks that now hug the top half of the frontpage.
- ricricucit 13y agoOK, that's cool...and new, right? Now we just need lower fees to make developers happier...or a service that can match the high fees (eg. possibility of create and manage affiliates, more payment methods, discounts, etc.)
