Modit is always looking for ways in which the marketplace can be improved for you (the sellers) and customers alike.
With the goal of assisting all sellers to maximise their sales, Modit will be making a few changes in the near future, including enforcing stricter policies across the board.
Visual Overhaul
Modit has arranged a visual overhaul, these changes will alter the marketplace in a way that appeals to our target market; Modit is steering further from the corporate, clean colors and lines to opt for a more "gamer centric" style.
More info on this will be provided in the coming weeks, or if all goes to plan, an update will be pushed and you'll be able to experience the new visuals just like everybody else.
Product Screening
Modit is aiming towards quality content and won't just accept any product coming it's way.
This is something Modit has been pushing since the very start, however, we feel that we've been too relaxed about what products are being accepted onto the marketplace as well as existing products that maybe coming to the end of their life cycle or are providing more issues than they're worth in terms of you supporting and upating them.
Therefore we are going to be introducing a product screening process, aimed at keeping the marketplace clean, healthy in quality and reducing its chargeback/support workload.
Criteria Modit will use to evaluate your products are:
Helping sellers with product description
If necessary, Modit will assist you in creating an accurate and concise product description
Criteria you must follow when writing your product description.
Modit expects you to put reasonable effort into preparing your product for release.
While we are more than happy to assist you, if it becomes apparent that you are abusing this support, it may have implications on your seller account at Modit.
If your product does not meet all mandatory criteria, it will not pass the product screening process.
Seller Rules
Rules will be implemented to help provide guidelines to sellers on what they can and cannot do in relation to Modit.
These rules are mandatory and a sellers ability to follow or break them will affect their "standing" with Modit. This standing will be taken into account during the product screening process.
Not following these guidelines can lead to your product being temporarily, or even permanently, disabled.
Not following these guidelines may have implications on your seller account at Modit.
Pricing Tiers
With each product added to the marketplace, we've noticed a steady decrease in the average value of products released here. If the average price of a product keeps decreasing on trend, Modit's product baseline will reach an all time low, forcing sellers producing higher quality products to lower their price in an attempt to compete with other sellers. This is bad for all of you (sellers).
Product pricing should be based on the end result of the product that is consistent with other products on the marketplace to give our customers a clear sense of what to expect from a given price.
To resolve this issue and to get our baseline back, we will be introducing a comprehensive pricing scheme, with tiers, to which all sellers should strongly consider following.
Pricing tiers may change in the future and will have to be re-applied to your products.
You will not be forced into a tier lower than the one you are already in.
Products that don't have a price reflecting the end result of the product compared with other products on the marketplace will be forced into a higher tier.
Helping sellers determine the right price
Modit will aid you to determine the right price via our product screening process.
Criteria Modit will take into account:
Criteria Modit does not take into account:
The rights of your products
All product rights pertaining to selling and ownership are retained by the original creator.
In no shape or form will Modit take away the rights of the original creators, we simply provide the platform to help you sell your products.
Modit reserves the right to decide who and what products will sell on Modit though the application process.
If a seller violates the terms of agreement between Modit and themselves, Modit reserves the right to retain their most recently uploaded product files to continue distribution to existing customers. This is purely to maintain past existing contracts with customers, we do not have the right to continue to sell your products or have any rights of ownership over them.
If you do not agree with all of the guidelines stated above, or believe something should be changed, removed or added, please contact me so we can discuss the issues and figure out how we may assist you better.
