How TrackSwap works

For buyers

1. Search with fitment in mind. Filter by racing type, vehicle make/model/year, brand, part number, condition, and price so you find parts that actually fit your build.
2. Ask questions in-platform. Message the seller through TrackSwap. Keeping the conversation on-platform protects you and creates a record if anything goes wrong.
3. Check out securely. Pay by card through Stripe — your payment details never touch the seller, and your payment is held until you confirm the order arrived.
4. Get it shipped or pick it up. Choose flat-rate shipping with tracking, or arrange a local pickup and confirm the handoff in-app.
5. Leave a review. After the sale completes, rate the seller so the next buyer knows what to expect.
6. Something wrong? Cancel or open a dispute.Orders that haven't shipped yet can be cancelled directly. After that, use disputesto flag an item that never arrived, arrived damaged, or wasn't as described.

For sellers

1. List in minutes. Add photos, a description, and structured fitment details. Save a draft and finish later, then preview before you publish.
2. Connect a payout account. Onboard with Stripe Connect so the funds from your sales can be paid out to your bank.
3. Respond and sell. Answer buyer questions, accept offers, and manage everything from your seller dashboard.
4. Ship and get paid. Add a tracking number or confirm a pickup. After a short protection window, your payout is released, minus the TrackSwap platform fee.
5. Get verified (optional). Apply for the verified badge once you've made a few sales — it shows buyers you're a real, established seller.

Fees

Listing is free, and TrackSwap only charges a fee when your item actually sells. The seller fee is tiered by sale price:

• Under $100: 10% TrackSwap seller fee
• $100 – $499.99: 7% TrackSwap seller fee
• $500 or more: 5% TrackSwap seller fee

The seller fee is capped at $750 per order, so on a high-value sale you never pay more than that. A few worked examples:

• A $50 sale → $5.00 seller fee (10%).
• A $100 sale → $7.00 seller fee (7%).
• A $500 sale → $25.00 seller fee (5%).
• A $20,000 sale → $750 seller fee — the 5% tier would be $1,000, but the cap holds it at $750.

This is the only fee TrackSwap charges the seller, and it covers TrackSwap's card-processing costs — sellers don't pay a separate payment-processing charge on top. Your payout is your item price plus any shipping you charge, minus this seller fee (sales tax collected at checkout is remitted separately and was never part of your proceeds). There are no listing fees, no monthly fees, no hidden charges, and no marketplace fee to buyers.

Payment protection

Payments are processed and held by our payment processor (Stripe) during the transaction: payment is held while the order is in progress, there's a short review window after delivery, then the seller payout is scheduled — TrackSwap does not operate a legal escrow service. For full details, see our safety guide and terms.

Disputes

If an order doesn't go as expected — the item never arrives, arrives damaged, or isn't as described — either the buyer or seller can open a dispute directly from the order. It pauses that order's payout and starts a message thread that our team can step into. See your open and past disputes at /disputes.
