SeoPlace offers various payment methods for the buyers, including credit cards, PayPal, and Apple Pay. The platform will recognize specific currencies to cater to buyers from all over the world. SeoPlace will charge buyers a service fee for using its platform, representing a percentage of the total transaction value. This fee depends on the nature of the work and the amount charged by the seller.
