# $VULT marketplace utility (paused)

$VULT marketplace utility (paused, not in production). Planned developer registration fees, listing fees, and premium placement.

{% hint style="warning" %}
**Paused.** The plugin marketplace is not in production. These pages describe the planned product and stay for reference.
{% endhint %}

## **Developer and Plugin Registration Fee**

To improve plugin quality and prevent malicious plugins on the Marketplace, Vultisig developers will pay a one-time registration fee and a per-plugin registration fee in [$VULT](https://x.com/search?q=%24VULT\&src=cashtag_click), which will be burned.\
This system provides better oversight of developers in the Vultisig ecosystem.

***

## **Reduced Fees for Users**

Users will be able to pay with [$VULT](https://x.com/search?q=%24VULT\&src=cashtag_click) instead of [$USDC](https://x.com/search?q=%24USDC\&src=cashtag_click) and receive a discount on installation fees in the Marketplace. Additionally, users will receive reduced fees on recurring purchases, such as subscriptions or bulk purchases, when staking [$VULT](https://x.com/search?q=%24VULT\&src=cashtag_click). The exact amounts are yet to be determined before the complete Marketplace rollout.

***

## **Premium Plugins**

Developers can apply for a "Premium Plugin" or "Vultisig Approved" label. This will incur a one-time fee in VULT, which will be considered revenue. The Vultisig team will audit and perform a regression test on the developer's plugin, which will increase the credibility of the plugin.

***

## **Boost Visibility**

Developers will be able to increase their visibility in the Marketplace by spending [$VULT](https://x.com/search?q=%24VULT\&src=cashtag_click) . The specific packages will be determined before the Marketplace rollout.

***

## **Developer Income Boost**

Developers will be able to stake and lock up tokens to increase their share of the fees. Stake and Lock:

* 500.000 VULT for 1 year, receive 80% of fees
* 1.000.000 VULT for 1 year, receive 90% of fees

These will be one-year subscriptions and will be available at a later point, after the Marketplace rollout.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.vultisig.com/vult-token/vult/marketplace-utility.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
