This provision establishes that sellers incur a financial obligation on each completed transaction and that the applicable fee rate is determined by an externally maintained schedule that Reverb may update. The document does not specify the current fee percentage or a minimum notice period for fee changes, which creates ongoing financial exposure for sellers who do not actively monitor fee schedule updates.
Interpretive note: The document references an external fee schedule, and the precise notice period required before fee changes take effect is not specified in the Terms of Service itself, creating ambiguity about the operative notice standard.
The agreement establishes that sellers owe Reverb a selling fee on each completed transaction at the rate specified in the separately maintained fee schedule, which Reverb may update with notice. Sellers who continue transacting after a fee change are deemed to have accepted the updated rate under the terms.

"Reverb charges sellers a selling fee for each completed transaction. The current fee schedule is available on the Reverb website and may be updated from time to time. By completing a transaction on Reverb, sellers agree to pay the applicable fees.Excerpt from Reverb's Terms of Service
(1) REGULATORY LANDSCAPE: Fee disclosure obligations in marketplace contexts engage the FTC Act, which requires material terms to be clearly and conspicuously disclosed. State consumer protection statutes, including California's UCL, may impose additional requirements on fee change notification for sellers. For EU/EEA sellers, the EU Platform-to-Business Regulation (P2B Regulation, EU 2019/1150) requires marketplace operators to provide at least 15 days' advance notice of fee changes. (2) GOVERNANCE EXPOSURE: Medium. The externally referenced fee schedule structure means that the operative financial terms for sellers are not contained within the Terms of Service document itself, creating a risk that fee changes may not be communicated with adequate prominence. The EU P2B Regulation's notice requirements may not be satisfied by a general 'continued use constitutes acceptance' mechanism. (3) JURISDICTION FLAGS: EU and EEA-based sellers have heightened exposure under the P2B Regulation, which prescribes minimum notice periods and requires fee changes to be communicated directly to affected sellers. California sellers should evaluate whether the fee modification mechanism satisfies California contract law requirements for unilateral modification. (4) CONTRACT AND VENDOR IMPLICATIONS: Business sellers and resellers operating at scale should implement monitoring of the Reverb fee schedule page to detect changes before they affect transaction economics. The external reference structure means changes to fees do not require a formal amendment to the Terms. (5) COMPLIANCE CONSIDERATIONS: Legal teams advising marketplace sellers should review the current fee schedule and establish a process for monitoring updates. For EU/EEA operations, Reverb's compliance with P2B Regulation notice requirements should be assessed independently of the ToS terms.
