Marketplace Payments
Common questions about buying and selling blueprints on the marketplace.
Is LynxPrompt free to use?
Yes. All features — the wizard, blueprints, AI editing, API access, and CLI — are free. The only payments that exist are optional marketplace purchases when a blueprint creator sets a price.
How do marketplace payments work?
When the platform has payments enabled (ENABLE_STRIPE=true), blueprint creators can set a price (minimum €5) on their blueprints. Buyers pay through Stripe at checkout. The seller receives 70% and the platform takes a 30% commission.
What payment methods are accepted?
All major credit cards (Visa, Mastercard, American Express) through Stripe. The exact amount is shown before you confirm.
Can I get a refund for a blueprint purchase?
Per EU digital content regulations, refunds aren't available after download because you consent to immediate access. Refunds may be considered for non-delivery or technical issues — contact support@lynxprompt.com.
What currency are prices in?
All prices are in Euros (EUR). Stripe automatically converts to your card's currency at checkout.
Are payments available on self-hosted instances?
Only if the instance administrator enables Stripe by setting ENABLE_STRIPE=true and providing valid Stripe API keys. Without this, the marketplace is free-only and all blueprints can be downloaded at no cost.
