🇮🇩 Tokopedia Indonesia — Dynamic commission cap raised
What changed: Per-item dynamic commission cap raised from Rp40,000 → Rp650,000. Cap now only bites on items above approximately Rp11 million (previously bit on items above approximately Rp700,000). This significantly increases fees on expensive items but leaves low-to-mid-price items unaffected.

How we verify
For each fee change logged above, we follow this process:
- Pull the official seller education hub article for the marketplace (the URL cited in each entry).
- Read the full article text — for JavaScript-rendered seller hubs, this means capturing a screenshot PDF of the rendered article.
- Cross-reference against established e-commerce SaaS providers (BigSeller, Duoke, OneCart, Cloud Ecommerce) where available, to catch official-article ambiguity.
- Update the relevant calculator's constants and refresh the "Last verified" date stamp.
- Record the verification in our internal audit log.
Our standard is no unverified specific number: if we cannot trace a rate to an official source checked in the same session, we either omit it or describe it as a range pointing back to the seller centre. The full standard is documented in our internal SOP-001 (Accuracy & Anti-Fabrication).
