Overview of Fees
You can find our commission regulations below.
Buyer
Upon conclusion of the contract between you and the seller, a commission is payable to us by you as the buyer. Please refer to the table below for the commission rate. The commission is based on the gross sales price of the vehicle (without taking into account any renegotiation that may have taken place after the conclusion of the contract) and amounts to a minimum of 3% and a maximum of 6% of the gross sales price, with the exception of a gross sales price of 0 € - 10,000 € for the vehicle, where a commission of 600 € is payable.
For example: If the gross sales price is 8,500 €, a commission of 600 € is payable; if the gross sales price is 50,000 €, a commission of 3,000 € is payable; and if the gross sales price is 200,000 €, a commission of 10,000 € is payable. You agree to this commission regulation by clicking on the button "bid with obligation to pay" or "submit offer with obligation to pay".
Our commission is to be paid via our escrow agent, if you choose to pay via escrow. If you choose Bank Transfer as your payment method, the commission must be paid to us via bank transfer. Please refer to our privacy policy and our terms and conditions for more information.

Seller
If your vehicle is sold, a commission will be payable to us by you as the seller. The commission is based on the gross sales price of the vehicle (without taking into account any renegotiation that may have taken place after the conclusion of the contract) and is 1% of the gross sales price, with the exception of a gross sales price of 0 € - 10,000 € for the vehicle, where a commission of 100 € is due.
For example: if the gross sales price is €8,500, a commission of €100 is payable; if the gross sales price is €50,000, a commission of €500 is payable; and if the gross sales price is €200,000, a commission of €2,000 is payable. However, this commission is waived if one of the following conditions is met: An independent appraisal is presented for the vehicle that is no more than 2 years old, the vehicle is offered without a minimum price, the seller has already sold 5 vehicles on HeartBids (expires after one year without a sale) or offers several vehicles at the same time.
You accept these commission regulations with your release declaration when approving the listing. Please refer to our privacy policy and our terms and conditions for more information.
Please note that the buyer can freely choose between the following forms of payment for the purchase price of the vehicle, without you having any influence on this: Bank transfer or escrow payment. Our commission is to be paid via our escrow agent, provided that the buyer has chosen escrow as a payment method with regard to the conclusion of the contract between you and him. If the buyer has chosen "bank transfer / cash payment" as payment method, the commission to us must also be paid by bank transfer.
