Transparent Pricing — No Hidden Charges
Sourcing from China should be predictable. At Z-Pick, our service fee is confirmed before any project starts — what you see is what you pay. We serve small-B importers, wholesalers, and chain-store buyers across Russia, Central Asia, the Middle East, and North Africa. No markup on factory prices. No kickbacks. No surprises.
Sourcing Agent Service Fee
Our service fee ranges from a transparent commission, discussed per project of FOB order value, with a $100 minimum for orders under $1,000.
The exact rate depends on three factors:
- Order value — larger orders qualify for lower rates
- SKU count — more SKUs mean more coordination per dollar
- Number of suppliers — consolidating across multiple factories adds workload
We quote your exact rate after reviewing your RFQ — you always know the full cost before you commit. There are no hidden fees, no surprise charges, and no commissions added to factory prices.

Total Landed Cost

Total Landed Cost = Product Cost (FOB) + Z-Pick Service Fee + Domestic China Freight + International Shipping + Import Duty & Local Clearance

Pricing FAQ
Q: Is the service fee really the only cost you control?
A: Yes. All other costs — product, freight, duties, certification — are pass-through at actual amounts with zero markup.
Q: Why is there a $100 minimum for orders under $1,000?
A: Even a small order requires supplier coordination, quality checks, and documentation. The minimum ensures we can fully serve every order without cutting corners.
Q: How do I know which rate I’ll get?
A: Submit an RFQ with your product details, target quantity, and destination. We review every request personally and send you an exact rate within 24 working hours — no obligation, no sales pressure.
Q: Do you offer DDP?
A: We work under EXW, FOB, and CIF terms. DDP is not offered — we do not advance duty payments or take on destination clearance risk. This keeps our quotes transparent and our incentives aligned with yours.
