We handle customer service, credit card processing, fraud prevention and returns. We’re happy to share our operational efficiencies, bringing you lower fulfillment rates. And with our personalization efforts, we work hard to match your products to the right BelleChic customers to keep them coming back again and again.

Submitting Products

BelleChic is flexible in accommodating however you choose to run your business. You can sell your products on the BelleChic network of sites based on a cost model or price model.

  • Cost Model – Vendors submit all products with a product cost and/or shipping cost only (no retail price is submitted). BelleChic then utilizes a proprietary method to mark up the product based on category to determine the optimal price to sell to the customer. This method guarantees that you will be paid the cost of each unit sold.

  • Price Model – Vendors submit all products with a retail price and/or shipping price only (no product or shipping costs). After a product has sold, BelleChic then withholds a “seller fee” from each transaction and remits the remainder of the customer’s purchase to the vendor.

All “seller fees” on Tanga are 15% unless explicitly defined in the table below.

When and how do I get paid?

Tanga provides an automated invoicing system that allows vendors to spend more time on submitting great deals and less time on creating invoices.

Invoices are sent via email once a week on Mondays unless a holiday falls on that day  in which case invoices would be sent on the following business day.  The invoices include all items that shipped in the BelleChic system (tracking was uploaded and tracking showed carrier movement) from the previous week (Monday-Sunday). Funds are deposited directly into your account via ACH transfers.

Vendor partners must have a US based bank account with the ability to accept payment in US Dollars.

What products are restricted from being sold on BelleChic?

BelleChic customers trust that they can always buy safely and confidently on the BelleChic Network.  As such, we have developed a list of restricted items and categories that are prohibited from being listed and sold on the BelleChic Network. These products are defined as products that are illegal, unsafe, offensive, previously worn, modified from original specifications, expired or otherwise restricted by applicable laws and regulations.

Certain categories will go through a review and approval process to be sold on BelleChic including product categories such as fragrances, select food categories and over the counter medications.

Am I responsible for collecting sales tax?

No. As the the Merchant of Record, BelleChic will be collecting sales tax on all orders. We collect sales tax for Arizona, Nevada, Connecticut, Washington, Florida and New York since we have a physical presence in these states.

How do I list my products?

Each vendor receives access to a BelleChic Vendor Portal after joining the BelleChic Network.

Using the Vendor Portal, you’ll be able to list your products in several different ways

  • Single Product – upload a single product one at a time. Simple and easy. (Not recommended for dozens of products).
  • Bulk Upload – upload all your products all at once via a single CSV spreadsheet.
  • Service Partner – BelleChic partners with ChannelAdvisor and SellerCloud to make synchronizing your inventory and sales efforts across various sales channels easy.
  • Build Your Own Integration – use Tanga’s API.  

What are your shipping expectations?

To ensure we maintain excellence in delivering your goods on-time and in exact quantities to fulfill customer orders, each vendor must ship 100% of the purchased quantities within 2 business days of receiving a purchase order.  

In addition, BelleChic requests that you do not commit to volumes where there is any uncertainty around your ability to fulfill them completely and on-time. All product must be fully owned by you, as we don’t allow brokered deals. All product must be shipped from within the United States.

Vendors are responsible for shipping on their own carrier account. BelleChic does not provide a carrier account to ship on. Vendors are allowed to utilize any carrier they wish, as long we all goods are delivered within 10 business days.

Yes. If your items meet our criteria, our merchandising team will reach out with potential opportunities to help vendors drive sales.
