Carefully selected partners

As with many other marketplaces, the customer will be able to spot the difference between your products and Manors thanks to the text “sold and shipped by” next to the product. All the prices are in Swiss francs hence payments are only accepted in this currency.

Manor carefully selects their partners, and they have to fulfill the following criteria:

  • have a Swiss VAT number.
  • Provide products with unique EANs
  • Provide product titles, and descriptions in French and German (mandatory), Italian is optional
  • High quality images (reco: 2000 x 2000 pixel, RGB, white background, 3+ images)
  • Best in class operations: Shipments with tracking, return address
  • Reactive and multilingual Customer Service

The non-Swiss partners must:

  • Take care of the customs directly (ask Manor to be introduced to their customs partner if needed)
  • Provide the customer with a local return address (can be offered by Manor's customs partners or if return address abroad free shipping has to be offered)

In addition to this, Manor review the following on an everyday basis:

  • speed of acceptance and dispatch of orders
  • reliability of services
  • quality and responsiveness of customer service and after-sales.

Logistics outside EU

As this marketplace is from Switzerland who’s not a member of the EU, something that can cause some challenges for international sellers are the logistics and customs management. Luckily, the support team at Manor has experience with international sellers and will hence help new ones with this as well.

Manor's pricing model

  • Manor takes a monthly Marketplace fee of 39CHF on top of the variable sales commission fees (If you don't sell anything one particular month, you won't be charged for this).
  • Partners are credited directly to their partner bank account, on the 1st and 15th of every month.
