New Selling Tiers on the Pure Marketplace

Selling on the Pure Marketplace runs on four tiers: Pure Copper, Pure Silver, Pure Gold, and Pure Plum. Every account starts in Pure Copper. From there, your tier is set by how much you complete on the marketplace over a calendar quarter, buying as well as selling, and each step up lowers your selling fee rates. Pure Gold adds wire payments on request and a dedicated account manager. Pure Plum carries the lowest fee rates of the four tiers, plus access to beta features and new product releases.

Overview on Tiers

Which of the three rates applies is set by the product, not by the metal it is made of. Most gold bullion sits at the base rate, and so do some silver bullion products, silver rounds among them. Silver bars, American Silver Eagles, silver dollars, and 90% silver bill at the Plat Silver Palladium rate. Proof, burnished, and collector issues bill at the numismatic rate. The correct rate is applied to each item automatically when you build a sell order, and an order holding items from more than one rate class blends them.

How to Maintain Status

Your tier is set by the total value of the orders you complete on Pure over a calendar quarter, and both sides of the marketplace count toward it. A sell order counts for its full value. A buy order counts for 50% of its value. An order counts once it is complete, meaning the item has passed verification and the order has settled. So if an order was placed in Quarter 1 but completed in Quarter 2, it applies to Quarter 2. Your rate changes when you cross a threshold and not before, so anything you complete on the way there is charged at your current tier's rate. Once you reach a tier, you keep it for the rest of that calendar quarter and the following calendar quarter. Canceled orders, returned orders and dropped orders will automatically disqualify your account's tier status.

• Quarter 1: January 1 - March 31

• Quarter 2: April 1 - June 30

• Quarter 3: July 1 - September 30

• Quarter 4: October 1 - December 31
