How does MaterialSales make money?
Suppliers pay a monthly subscription — $42/mo (Basic, 1 listing), $83/mo (Pro, 3 listings) or $155/mo (Enterprise, 5 listings). There's also a one-off 12-month plan at $1,499 for 5 listings (saves $301 vs the monthly equivalent). We have no commission, no transaction fees, and no markup on supplier prices. That's it. No ads, no buyer fees, no data sales.
Who verifies listings?
Every listing is reviewed by a human within one hour of submission, 7 days a week. We check the product is real, the supplier is Australian (ABN-registered), photos and pricing look credible, and the description isn't misleading. Listings that fail review are removed — no refunds on past billing periods, but cancel anytime.
Does MaterialSales handle payments or delivery?
No. We connect buyer and supplier — phone number, email, message — and step out of the way. The supplier deals direct with the buyer for quotes, scheduling, payment and delivery. We never take a cut of the transaction.
Who is the platform for?
Suppliers: quarries, sand pits, concrete batchers, turf farms, ag suppliers, soil yards, recyclers, forestry operators, and anyone selling bulk materials. Buyers: builders, civil contractors, landscapers, councils, farmers, and homeowners doing bigger projects.
Where is MaterialSales based?
Australian-owned and operated. ABN-registered. We pay AU GST on all subscription fees. Currently AU-only, with the architecture in place to expand to NZ and other markets when it makes sense.
