        "rendered": "<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Understanding the fee structure on markto.ch helps both buyers and sellers plan transactions clearly and avoid surprises. Fees may vary depending on category, listing type, or optional features selected.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>1. Creating an Account<\/strong><br>In most cases, creating an account and browsing listings is free. Users can explore categories, save searches, and contact sellers without upfront costs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>2. Posting Standard Listings<\/strong><br>Basic ad posting may be free in certain categories. However, some categories or high-volume postings may include a listing fee. Always review the posting details before publishing an ad.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>3. Featured or Promoted Ads<\/strong><br>Sellers may choose optional paid features such as:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Featured placement<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Homepage visibility<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Highlighted listings<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Extended visibility duration<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">These promotional options increase exposure and may involve additional charges.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>4. Transaction Fees (If Applicable)<\/strong><br>If the platform facilitates payments directly, transaction or service fees may apply. These are typically calculated as a percentage of the sale price or a fixed amount.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>5. Subscription Plans (If Available)<\/strong><br>Professional or high-volume sellers may have access to subscription packages that include multiple listings, promotional tools, or additional account features for a recurring fee.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>6. Buyer Costs<\/strong><br>Buyers generally browse and contact sellers for free. However, any agreed-upon purchase price, delivery cost, or payment processing fee (if applicable) is the buyer\u2019s responsibility as outlined in the transaction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Always review the current pricing information before posting or promoting ads. Understanding applicable fees ensures transparency and helps you make informed decisions when buying or selling on markto.ch.<\/p>",
