Merchant License

From Mabinogi World Wiki

Basic Information

Merchant License.png
A Merchant License is necessary in order to open a Personal Shop. Players must also have an Item Shop Bag in which to keep their wares to be sold. Merchant licenses are purchased from any branch of Erskin Bank. Each branch sells a license that is usable in a specific location near the bank. A Merchant License with monetary value on it cannot be reused, regardless of how much has been sold on the license. A Merchant License that has not yet accumulated value can be reused until it gains value. After a shop has been closed, the Merchant License can be deposited at any bank to add the value of the goods sold to the bank account balance. Merchant License that have accumulated value cannot be mailed to other players. VIP Exclusive Merchant Licenses, which double the regular gold limit, can only be used by players who currently have VIP service.
  • Note: All Licenses in-game incorrectly state that the ability to use money from inside a player's bank, at a fee, is disabled (the Direct Bank Transaction feature). Despite this, ALL Licenses in-game now support this feature.

Common Information

  • There are two types of Merchant License, Regular and VIP.
    • Regular Merchant Licenses can be used without any service, while VIP require VIP Service.
      • Regular Licenses cost 10,000 Gold and VIP Licenses cost 15,500 Gold.
      • They all store a base of 10 Million Gold.
        • VIP Licenses store an additional +10 Million Gold.
        • Dunbarton Guardian Guild adds an additional +10 Million Gold to Dunbarton Licenses.
        • Belvast Licenses store an additional +10 Million Gold.
      • They all allow for those buying from the Personal Shop to spend money directly from their banks.
      • They all lose 1% of every sale because of their Sale Fee.
      • They all lose 1% of the total sale amount because of their Exchange Fee.
        • Both fees together can be thought of as: Total Sale Value * 0.99 * 0.99
