It’s important to note that Art.Africa does not store any customer payment
information, ensuring your transactions remain secure and private.

Art.Africa prioritises secure transactions by leveraging trusted payment gateways
that adhere to the industry-standard PCI DSS (Payment Card Industry Data
Security Standard). This rigorous standard ensures the protection of sensitive
customer data like credit card information. To further safeguard your information,
Art.Africa itself does not process or store any payment details. All transactions are
securely handled on the side of our PCI-compliant payment processors. This
approach minimises the risk of data breaches and ensures the highest level of
security for your financial information.

Yes, you can offer discounts or promotions on Art.Africa! Sellers have the ability to
customise the negotiability of their artworks by setting a percentage in their
account settings. This percentage overrides the global percentage set by the admin,
which is currently 10%. It’s important to note that this customization applies
specifically to the “Make an Offer” feature.

The taxation of your artwork sales depends on your location and the buyer’s. Tax
obligations vary significantly by country and typically include VAT, GST, or other
applicable taxes. It’s essential to comply with local tax laws and regulations relevant
to your specific situation.

Payments are processed three weeks after the delivery of your artwork, or by the end of the month following delivery, whichever comes later. Payments will be made via bank transfer to your designated bank account.

For example, if your artwork is delivered on March 15th, you can expect to receive  payment by April 5th (21 days after delivery) or by April 30th (end of the following month), depending on which date is later.
To ensure smooth receipt of payments, please keep your bank account information up-to-date.

Additionally, please note that we have a minimum payment threshold of £100. Payments will only be issued when your accumulated earnings meet or exceed this threshold. Earnings below this amount will be carried forward to the next payment cycle until the minimum threshold is reached.

To set the price of your artwork, consider the following guidelines:

• Research the market and understand what similar artworks are selling for in
  your genre, medium, and size range.
• Calculate costs and factor in materials, time, and overhead expenses.
• Ensure your prices are competitive with other artists in your market.
  Be open to negotiation and willing to adjust prices based on feedback and
  sales data.

Remember, pricing your artwork is a balance between valuing your creative effort
and being realistic about what buyers are willing to pay.
