Why brands need an MoR

Selling abroad is simple. Until the rules start.

Every country brings its own VAT number, EPR registrations, product legislation and marketplace policy. A brand that builds that alone loses months and carries every risk itself. As Merchant of Record we take that entire layer off your plate.

Collaboration

You know your product, we know the marketplaces. Together we set price, positioning and pace.

What exactly is a Merchant of Record?+

The Merchant of Record is the legal seller of a transaction. SAWA is on the invoice and responsible for VAT, EPR, sales tax, product liability and marketplace compliance. You supply the product and the brand, we supply the selling infrastructure.

Do I keep ownership of my inventory?+

Yes. We work on consignment: your products remain yours until they are sold. We manage the inventory, the listings and the logistics per marketplace.

Which marketplaces and countries do you sell in?+

Amazon across Europe and the United States is the core, in 12+ countries. Other marketplaces and channels are discussed per brand, depending on where your customers buy.

How and when do I get paid?+

You see every sale, fee and remittance in real time in the SAWA Console. Payouts follow a fixed schedule; the amount that is payable and the amount still deferred are always at the top of your dashboard.

What does it cost?+

Our model is performance based: an agreed margin on what we sell for you, no subscription. Leave your details and we will run the numbers for your range.

How quickly can we go live?+

After signing you complete a short checklist in our onboarding portal: brand registration, product data, creatives, company documents and bank details. Once the first inventory arrives, the listings go live.
