If you’re not aware, becoming a vendor or starting a new shop on a marketplace in most situations requires payment of that market’s Vendor Bond/Vendorship fee. This is a one time fee you pay to be able to do business on that marketplace.
I figured it is helpful for new and established vendors to have an updated source for vendor bonds/vendorship fees for all major marketplaces in one place. I will do my best to keep this list updated.
For already established, existing vendors on other bigger markets that are looking to open up shop on new marketplaces, this fee is usually waived by each marketplace as long as you can provide the market with proof that you are the vendor you say you are on other markets.
