WHY MAKE THE SWITCH

Faire is a marketplace where you live inside their branded experience. LINESHEET is built for what wholesale looks like today.

01

Keep your brand identity

On Faire, the buyer experience is Faire-branded. On LINESHEET, your storefront is yours — your colors, logo, hero, lookbook, sections. Buyers experience your brand, not a marketplace tile.

02

Real linesheet builder, not just a product feed

Faire treats your products as a feed inside their UX. LINESHEET treats them as a linesheet — with cover, branding, buyer letter, lookbook gallery, sections, and proper wholesale terms. The tool a sales rep would build, automated.

03

Lower fees on direct orders

Faire historically charges 15-25% on every order. LINESHEET charges 0-2% on direct orders (retailers you bring), 15% only on marketplace-discovered orders. Most brands save significantly on existing relationships.

FAQ

Common questions about switching from Faire

Is LINESHEET a Faire alternative?

Yes. LINESHEET combines the linesheet building and wholesale order management of platforms like Brandboom with the public marketplace discovery of Faire — without locking your storefront behind Faire's branded experience. Your linesheet stays your own.

How does LINESHEET differ from Faire?

Faire is primarily a marketplace where brands list to be discovered. LINESHEET is a linesheet platform with a marketplace built in — so brands have a real linesheet builder, custom storefront, AI sales assistant, and direct retailer messaging, plus marketplace exposure. Brands keep their identity and pricing logic on LINESHEET; on Faire, you live inside Faire's UX.

What are LINESHEET's marketplace fees?

Marketplace-sourced orders carry a 15% fee. Direct orders (retailers you bring through your linesheet link or existing relationships) are 2% on the Free plan and 0% on the Pro plan. Faire charges a 15% commission plus a one-time $10 new-customer fee on Faire-sourced orders, and 0% commission on Faire Direct orders (only payment processing applies).

Can I be on both Faire and LINESHEET?

Absolutely. Many brands use Faire as one channel and LINESHEET as another. LINESHEET's branded storefront and linesheet builder lets you serve direct relationships in your own brand experience while Faire serves a different cohort of buyers.

Is LINESHEET fashion-only?

LINESHEET is built for fashion brands — apparel, accessories, footwear, jewelry, and homewares. The product taxonomy, MOQ enforcement, sizing variants, and pricing logic are tuned for wholesale fashion. Faire covers more general categories (gifts, food, home).
