Pioneer

Pioneers are the first stores on dropo.

If you register as a store or business during the Pioneer campaign, you get the Pioneer package free for one year, then a Pioneer discount on the subscriptions of your line — and the Pioneer badge stays on your profile.

Private accounts do not get a Pioneer year. If you already have Pioneer status, you keep it.

Pioneer cannot be bought.

Register as a store or business during the Pioneer campaign.

Your Pioneer year starts when you complete your registration — you do not need to apply.

Once the campaign has ended, there are no new Pioneer years.

The Pioneer package contains:

• 6.5% commissionthe lowest commission rate on dropo,
• a CHF 99 cap per sale, whatever the sale price,
• 50 direct sales per 30 days,
• 15 photos per listing,
• 8× Premium boost per period,
• 5× Featured boost per period,

Your Pioneer discount runs in four steps:

• year 1: 75% on the packages above your Pioneer package, so from Business
• year 2: 50% on every package
• year 3: 25%
• from year 4: 10% permanently

Plus and Pro are not available during the Pioneer year, because your Pioneer package offers more than both.

Anyone who needs more during the Pioneer year can, for example, take Business with the discount for CHF 74.00 instead of CHF 299.00.

The Pioneer badge stays on the profile permanently.

It appears in silver on a black background, belongs to the account rather than to the package, and remains after later package changes.

We expect Pioneers to really test dropo in everyday use during the beta.

That includes:

• testing for at least four weeks,
• giving ongoing feedback through the feedback entry in dropo,
• reporting concrete problems,
• making comprehensible suggestions for improvement,
• filling in a closing questionnaire at the end.

We are looking for concrete feedback:

No.

The programme runs for exactly 12 months from activation.

It cannot be cancelled, cannot be extended, and cannot be switched to a different Pioneer term.

If you buy a regular higher subscription during the Pioneer year, that subscription can take precedence over the Pioneer package.

The Pioneer year still continues in the background and is not extended as a result.

Switching to Plus or Pro is not possible, because both packages offer less than the Pioneer package.
