How you get paid depends on your plan:
Launch — Brikl is the Merchant of Record. We collect payments from customers, deduct fees, and pay you via Stripe Express on the 1st and 15th of each month.
Enterprise & Connect — You are the Merchant of Record. You collect payments directly from customers. Brikl invoices you for the agreed-upon platform fee on a regular billing cycle.
The detailed payout calculations below apply to the Launch plan. Enterprise and Connect billing is covered separately.
Launch only
When you create a Brikl account on Launch, you'll be prompted to connect a Stripe Express account to enable payouts. Navigate to the Integrations section under Settings to link your account.
Stripe will guide you through a secure process to verify your identity and set up your bank account. Once verification is complete, you'll receive a confirmation email and Brikl will begin transferring funds on the regular payout schedule.
Good to know: You can set up your store and start accepting orders even before your Stripe Express account is connected. Brikl will hold your funds in an intermediary account until your payout setup is complete.
Security note: Brikl never directly accesses or stores your bank information. All sensitive data is handled securely through Stripe using encrypted tokens and API integrations.
Launch only
Brikl sends payouts to your Stripe Express account on or around the 1st and 15th of every month. From there, Stripe transfers the funds to your linked bank account on a daily basis. This ensures steady, reliable cash flow once your Stripe Express account is set up and verified.
Launch only
When Brikl fulfills orders through its network of on-demand partners, your payout is calculated by subtracting the cost of goods, shipping fees, the Brikl fee, and the Stripe payment fee from the order total.

Launch only
When you handle fulfillment yourself, your payout is calculated by deducting the Brikl fee and the payment processing fee from the order total. There are no COGS or shipping deductions from Brikl since you manage those directly.
Example: $47.45 order (self-fulfilled)
Cart total (excl. tax): $47.45
− Brikl Fee (3.5%): $1.66
− Payment Fee: $1.75
Payout: $44.04
You handle COGS, shipping, and fulfillment costs separately.
Launch only
When coupons reduce or eliminate the customer payment, you may owe Brikl for COGS, shipping, tax, and the platform fee. When a 100% coupon is used, the customer pays nothing — there is no payment transaction. Brikl invoices you to cover the costs. The Brikl fee (3.5%) is calculated on the pre-coupon cart total, excluding tax.
Example: $25 polo shirt with 100% coupon (incl. shipping)
Order breakdown
Cost of Goods: $25.00
+ Your 50% markup: $12.50
+ Shipping: $9.95
− Coupon (100%): $47.45
Cart total: $0.00
Amount invoiced to you
Cost of Goods: $25.00
+ Shipping: $9.95
+ Sales Tax: $2.55
+ Brikl Fee (3.5%): $1.67
Amount due: $39.17
No Stripe payment fee applies since there is no customer payment transaction.
Enterprise & Connect
On Enterprise and Connect, Brikl does not process payouts. Instead, Brikl invoices you for the agreed-upon platform fee based on your contract terms. You collect payments from customers through your own payment gateway and manage your own supplier payments directly.
Key difference: On Launch, Brikl deducts fees and pays you the remainder. On Enterprise and Connect, you keep all customer payments and Brikl invoices you separately for the platform fee.
Unlimited stores — Create as many branded merchandise stores as you need: one per client, per event, per program. No caps or per-store fees.
Unlimited users — Invite your entire team: sales reps, designers, admins. No per-seat charges. Everyone who needs access gets it.
Unlimited organizations — Create a separate organization for each of your sales reps, clients, or programs. Each organization has its own stores, branding, and settings — all managed from your account.
Brikl supports 17 currencies: USD, EUR, AUD, CAD, MXN, GBP, BRL, JPY, NOK, PLN, SGD, HKD, KRW, SEK, DKK, CHF, and NZD. Currency is configured per store, allowing distributors to serve international clients in their local currency.
Yes. Brikl supports automated multi-currency conversions and localized tax calculations. Through the integrated tax engine, VAT, GST, and sales tax compliance are managed dynamically at checkout — reducing the administrative burden for businesses expanding internationally.
Custom domains are connected via DNS configuration using CNAME records. Brikl provides step-by-step setup instructions for major domain providers including GoDaddy and Google Domains. DNS propagation typically takes 1 to 72 hours. SSL certificates are provisioned automatically once the domain is verified.
Brikl integrates with 12+ fulfillment providers including Taylor OnDemand, Printful, Fulfill Engine, Printify, Vantage, and Rupt. The platform also connects to leading wholesale blank goods suppliers, giving distributors access to 4,000+ blank products for decoration and on-demand fulfillment.
Yes. When building a catalog, you can add a fundraiser amount per item. The system tracks fundraiser revenue separately from your regular profit, so you always know exactly how much is going to the cause. Combined with coupon codes and bulk ordering, this makes Brikl a natural fit for school fundraisers, nonprofit campaigns, and charity events.
All products are made to order and uniquely produced after a purchase is placed. As a result, returns and exchanges are not supported for the following reasons:
If you receive a product that is damaged or has a manufacturing defect, Brikl offers a free replacement — provided you contact support within 7 days of delivery. To process your request, please share:
Print placement tolerance:A tolerance of 0.5" in print placement is standard across all products. Minor variations within this range are not considered defects and are not eligible for replacement.
Delivered but not received:If an order's tracking status shows as “delivered” but you report it as not received, Brikl reserves the right to decline a free reprint or refund. Each case is investigated individually.
As all products are custom-made to order, they are non-refundable. Refunds are only issued for out-of-stock or discontinued items where the order cannot be fulfilled.
Brikl is fully PCI DSS Level 1 compliant through Stripe, ensuring the highest standard of payment data protection. We use advanced encryption for data at rest and in transit, and adhere to SOC 2 Type II auditing standards — providing a secure environment for SOC 2 Type II compliant B2B transactions and sensitive client data.
