WHAT THE SOURCING STAGE DELIVERSA real quote.
An agreed deadline.
Before sourcing starts, we agree the specifications, use countries, dates, eligible customer, costs, payment terms and what counts as a qualifying quote.
The result is at least one actual supplier quote meeting that scope, with delivery conditions and validity. A public link or an unanswered supplier list does not complete the sourcing service.
How the US$50 stage is settled
No qualifying quote by the agreed deadline: the US$50 sourcing fee is refundable.
A qualifying quote is delivered and you decide not to rent: the completed US$50 sourcing stage can be retained under your accepted terms.
You decide to rent: the next coordination stage is US$49, for a total Chuzu fee of US$99. The sourcing payment is counted once.
Know the cost.
Know the cash you need.
A basic coordination example, with illustrative USD amounts:
Supplier rental US$600Delivery & collection US$80Chuzu basic coordination US$49Estimated cost before separately applicable tax US$729Refundable supplier deposit US$300If everything is prepaid, cash required US$1,029
A refundable deposit is cash held, not part of the service cost. Your actual quote keeps each supplier’s currency and recipient; any reference exchange rate and its time are stated.
Only need the official link?
If you can subscribe to and use the provider’s service yourself, an official market reference does not add a Chuzu coordination charge. Any paid help must have a separate, useful result and an accepted scope.
Separate recipients. Clear records.
Suppliers receive their resource charges and deposits. Chuzu receives its agreed service fee. Your quote lists recipients, currencies, stages and applicable third-party charges.
Changes and cancellations
Unstarted or undelivered service stages are refundable. Completed work is settled using the amounts in your accepted quote. Added suppliers, locations or tasks need your agreement before extra work starts.
The agreed price stays agreed
Our own estimating error does not create an extra charge. Supplier rental and deposit refunds follow the supplier terms in your quote, with Chuzu providing the agreed follow-up.
