How it works

The MVP cycle is publish, present, purchase, download, review. Physical parts, messaging, and subscriptions stay out of this version.

Creator path

Create an account with email, Google, or Facebook. An email account opens only after you click the confirmation link. Accept the creator terms, then add the IBAN that receives payouts for sold files.

Upload the original files and, if you want buyers to orbit the real mesh, an STL, OBJ, or GLB preview. Then declare make, model, generation, and years.

Submit for moderation. The listing appears in search only after approval.

Settlement

  1. 1

    Payment confirmed

    The buyer’s payment is confirmed. Your share is recorded as money to settle and is not sent to the bank yet.

  2. 2

    Request payout

    In Your models, Request payout on the total sends every amount that is still waiting.

  3. 3

    Within 48 hours

    The honorarium is paid to your IBAN within 48 hours of that request. Later sales wait for the next request. A third-party rights notice stops those 48 hours for the disputed amount until the notice is closed.

  4. 4

    Marked paid

    An administrator records the transfer. That amount leaves the balance still to settle.

Level promotion

A new creator starts as New Creator. The level moves up from downloads of purchased files and the average buyer rating, from 1 to 5. Opening a preview does not count. No reviews yet counts as a rating of 0. The level sets the platform commission and the creator compensation in the creator terms.

  1. 1New Creator
  2. 2Verified Creator
  3. 3Trusted Creator
  4. 4Expert Creator

The administrator sets a download count and a minimum rating for each level above New Creator, and how much each measure counts. Those two weights add up to 100%. Meeting both numbers promotes the creator. A stronger result on one measure can cover a weaker result on the other, but only up to that measure’s weight. Each higher level asks for more downloads and a rating that is not lower.

Buyer path

  1. Open the homepage and search for a part or a vehicle.
  2. Filter the catalogue by make, category, and file format.
  3. Open the listing and orbit the preview.
  4. Read fitment, license, and verified reviews.
  5. Pay on the provider checkout. The order stays pending until the provider confirms it.
  6. Download the original file after confirmation. The link expires after 10 minutes, and the purchases page can issue another.
  7. Leave a review tied to that purchase.
  8. Report a rights claim from the listing when a file infringes your rights. The files are marked and the creator payout stays blocked until the claim is closed.
