Frequently Asked Questions

What are the fees for vendors?

Boardwalk Basket operates on a zero to low-fee model. Unlike national platforms that charge 25-35% commissions, we keep fees minimal to ensure you keep more of your profits. Exact rates depend on your vendor category and will be shared during onboarding.

How does delivery work?

We handle all delivery logistics through our community-owned electric vehicle fleet. Local residents employed through our "Earn While You Learn" program manage pickups and deliveries, ensuring fast, reliable, zero-emission service across all Atlantic City neighborhoods.

How and when do I get paid?

Vendors receive payments directly to their linked bank account on a weekly basis. For Co-op members, additional patronage dividends are distributed annually based on community profits.

How long does onboarding take?

Most vendors are fully onboarded within 3-5 business days. We provide free setup support including catalog creation, menu digitization, and staff training to ensure you're ready to start receiving orders immediately.

Do I need my own technology or app?

No! Boardwalk Basket provides everything you need. You get listed on our marketplace and mobile app (iOS + Android). We handle the technology, payments, and delivery logistics you just focus on serving customers.
