Mulebuy — fees, platforms and how to use it
What we can verify
{serviceFeePct: '0% commission on item price', publishable only with the seven documented extras — customs declaration from ~US$1.18/parcel, per-parcel operation+service fee lines inside the freight quote, 20 CNY rehearsal, 1.5 CNY per extra photo, 10 CNY/month storage extension, US$0.75 + both domestic legs on an unconditional return, US$1 per withdrawal. shippingLines: 111 named lines from the site's own public channel-list API queried 2026-07-29 for US/GB/DE at 1 kg, with transit times, tax-inclusive flags and fee breakdowns — by far the most distinct, most verifiable dataset in this batch and reason enough for the page to exist. platformsSupported: Taobao, Weidian, 1688 (Dewu/Poizon, Zhuanzhuan, Paipai via paid DIY only). paymentMethods: Visa, Mastercard, Discover, Diners, Skrill, Alipay, Apple Pay (mobile only), bank accounts in certain countries; PayPal is referenced but IS UNAVAILABLE FOR BRANDED ITEMS AND BRANDED STORES — decision-critical for us specifically, because our catalogue is 112 brand-named listings. freeStorageDays: 90 free from 'Stored in Warehouse', 10 CNY/month extension available days 1-30 after expiry, locked thereafter. qcPhotos: 3-7 free basic photos, free retakes, 1.5 CNY per extra; QC excludes power-on tests, colour judgement, internal defects and sealed packaging. affiliateProgramme: exists with affiliate + team-leader levels, payout to bank card/bonus cash/USDT, one withdrawal per month — mechanism only. notableLimitation: 5-day/120-hour return window from 'Stored'; contracting parties TUODA TRADING LTD (UK 16509461, accommodation address) + Hong Kong Yu Xin International Trade, HKIAC arbitration, liability capped at the single order's paid amount. CONFIDENCE KEPT HIGH: everything came from Mulebuy's own HTML, JS bundle and public APIs, and the strips are peripheral. Residual risk is staleness — no policy page carries a date, no Last-Modified header is served, the help footer still reads 'Copyright 2025' and the app-download links are unreplaced XXXX placeholders, so every fee must be labelled 'as observed 29 Jul 2026'.}
