Question 1

How does remote vending work?

Accepted Answer

RevoVend connects business owners who want to sell at events with local contractors who physically attend those events on their behalf. The vendor ships products to the contractor or event venue in advance. The contractor sets up the table, sells the products, handles customer interactions, and reports sales — all coordinated through the RevoVend platform.

Question 2

How does shipping work for remote vendors?

Accepted Answer

After a vendor books an event slot, they coordinate shipping directly with their assigned contractor. Products can be shipped to the contractor's address or the venue. The vendor's product program (photos, prices, descriptions) is uploaded to RevoVend so the contractor is fully prepared before the event.

Question 3

When and how do vendors and contractors get paid?

Accepted Answer

Contractors receive same-day pay after the event wraps. Vendors receive sales proceeds via the payment method on file, minus the flat platform fee. There are no hidden commissions — hosts pay zero commission and vendors pay a flat monthly or per-event rate rather than a percentage of sales.

Question 4

What does the verification badge mean?

Accepted Answer

Verified RevoVend members have completed identity verification and, in the case of contractors, have passed product training certification for the brands they represent. Verified vendors and contractors appear higher in search results and build more trust with event hosts.

Question 5

How are disputes handled if something goes wrong at an event?

Accepted Answer

Disputes — such as inventory discrepancies, no-shows, or payment disagreements — are submitted through the RevoVend resolution center. An admin reviews the evidence submitted by both parties and issues a ruling within 5 business days. Payouts may be held during an open dispute.

Question 6

What does RevoVend cost?

Accepted Answer

Event hosts pay 0% commission — listing events is free. Business owners (remote vendors) pay a flat-rate subscription starting at a monthly fee that covers unlimited product listings and event bookings. Contractors pay no platform fee; they earn a negotiated rate per event from the vendor. Service providers list starting at $2.99/month.

Question 7

Can I sell at events in any state?

Accepted Answer

Yes. RevoVend operates nationwide across the United States. Vendors can book events in any state by matching with certified local contractors in that area. You are responsible for ensuring your products comply with local regulations in the state where the event takes place.

Question 8

Do I need to attend the event myself as a business owner?

Accepted Answer

No — that is the core value of RevoVend. You upload your product catalog, approve a certified local contractor, ship your products, and the contractor handles the in-person event on your behalf. You monitor sales and communicate with your contractor through the platform dashboard.
