If you are using the Services on behalf of a business or other legal entity, you represent and warrant that you have the authority to bind that entity to these Terms, in which case "you" and "your" shall refer to that entity.

6. Commission Structure and Payment Terms
The Lesuto platform operates on a three-way commission model. When a customer completes a purchase on a merchant's storefront, the transaction revenue is allocated as follows:
- Merchant Commission: A percentage of the sale as determined by the supplier's commission rate settings. This is the merchant's earning for facilitating the sale.
- Platform Fee: Lesuto retains an adjustable platform fee (approximately 10%, which includes credit card processing fees of approximately 3%). The platform fee may be adjusted at Lesuto's discretion with reasonable advance notice.
- Supplier Revenue: The supplier receives the remaining balance after the merchant commission and platform fee are deducted.
Payouts are processed via Stripe Connect. Funds are held until the applicable return window expires, after which they become eligible for automated release. Lesuto reserves the right to withhold payouts in the event of suspected fraud, chargebacks, or violations of these Terms. All amounts are denominated in United States Dollars (USD) unless otherwise specified. You are responsible for all taxes applicable to your earnings.
