Deadlines that matter
Every clock on WornRep, on one page. Miss one and the system mostly handles it for you — refunds fire automatically, expired offers clean themselves up — but knowing them keeps your money moving.
An offer you made or received
24 hours
Offers expire 24 hours after they're made. Expired offers are removed — send a fresh one.
Buying after your offer is accepted
24 hours
An accepted deal gives you 24 hours to check out. After that the deal lapses and the listing is up for grabs again.
Seller ships your order
5 days
Sellers must ship within 5 days of payment. Still unshipped after 5 days? You can request a refund.
Seller gets paid
2 days after delivery
Once delivery is confirmed, the payout releases 2 days later into the seller's payout balance, then pays out to their bank account on a rolling daily schedule — landing in about 2–5 business days. An open dispute holds it.
Instant payout (optional)
About 30 minutes
Once funds are released and available, a seller can take an instant payout to an eligible debit card instead of waiting. The fee is 1% (minimum 50¢), charged by Stripe — WornRep adds nothing.
Shipping a return back
5 days
If a dispute ends in “return and refund,” ship the item back within 5 days with the return label. An unscanned label voids and the dispute closes.
Seller confirms a return arrived
2 days
From the return's first carrier scan, the seller has 2 days to confirm receipt. No confirmation? The refund fires automatically.
Fixing a flagged listing photo
48 hours
If a listing photo gets flagged (white-background product shots aren't allowed), WornRep contacts the seller, who gets 48 hours from that contact to replace it. Still not fixed after that, the seller gets one final warning with 12 more hours — then the listing comes down automatically. It stays in the seller's dashboard, and swapping in a real photo puts it right back up for sale. An admin can also remove a flagged listing at any time.
Why so many clocks?
Money on WornRep is held securely between strangers. The deadlines are what let it move without anyone having to trust anyone: ship on time, confirm honestly, and everything releases on schedule.
