What other costs should sellers plan for?

The seller fulfills and ships each order and chooses its carriers. JCPenney does not publish a marketplace ship window, so your own carrier cost is part of the plan.

Catalog preparation is covered in JCPenney Marketplace seller requirements. JCPenney coupons and promotions do not apply to marketplace items unless JCPenney says otherwise.

How does payment work?

JCPenney takes payment from the customer and handles payment-side refunds and chargebacks.

It passes the customer's name and shipping address to the seller for fulfillment, not payment details.
