## What Fees Cover

Platform service fees cover public request hosting, marketplace tooling, support, moderation, and operations.

Payment handling and source review fees cover payment processing support, protected source records, reveal logs, review workflows, dispute evidence, and fraud monitoring.

## Finder Payout

The posted offer remains the finder payout. Finders can earn the payout when a protected source is accepted, a direct handoff is confirmed, or review resolves in their favor.

## Processor Compatibility

Payment processors are enabled only when their acceptance policies support this marketplace and finder-payout model. Dodo checkout must remain disabled unless Dodo explicitly approves this exact new website and business model in a new business/product review.

## Refund and Review

Refunds and payout decisions use the saved request, source, reveal, review, and dispute timeline. If no valid source or handoff is accepted within the active request window, the funded finder offer can be returned under the refund policy.
