TideTurner NFT Program Policy

Last updated December 17, 2025


This policy governs the TideTurner NFT program and is incorporated by reference into the following agreements and policies:

  • Terms of Service

  • Buyer Agreement

  • Seller Agreement

  • Platform Fee Schedule

  • Shorefront Subscription & Pricing Policy

  • NFTs, Crypto & Payments Policy


1. What TideTurner NFTs Are

TideTurner NFTs are utility-based access tokens that provide:

  • Platform service fee discounts for buyers at checkout

  • Access to specific Shorefront seller tiers

  • Defined marketplace benefits while the NFT is held

TideTurner NFTs do not represent ownership, profit rights, revenue share, or investment contracts and are not intended to appreciate in value.


2. Who Benefits From a TideTurner NFT

Buyers

  • The buyer always pays the Fisheez platform service fee.

  • If either the buyer or the seller holds a TideTurner NFT, the buyer receives the single best available fee discount at checkout.

  • Discounts never stack. The highest eligible discount is applied automatically.

Sellers

  • Sellers never pay the platform service fee.

  • Sellers receive the full item price they set, plus any buyer-paid shipping charges, minus promoter commissions if applicable.

How TideTurner NFTs interact with Shorefront subscriptions
  • TideTurner NFTs do not replace a Shorefront subscription.

  • Shorefront subscriptions control:

    • Listing capacity

    • Live selling access

    • Streaming and usage limits

  • TideTurner NFTs control:

    • Platform fee discounts

    • Advertising discounts

    • Charity voting power

    • The maximum number of listings those benefits can apply to

A seller may subscribe to any Shorefront tier, including tiers above their TideTurner level.

However:

  • TideTurner benefits apply only up to the listing limits of the TideTurner’s corresponding Shorefront level

  • Listings beyond that limit do not receive TideTurner-based discounts or benefits

If no paid Shorefront subscription is active:

  • The seller defaults to Shorefront Level 1 capacity

  • TideTurner discounts and non-capacity benefits still apply while the NFT is held


3. TideTurner Program Structure

TideTurner NFTs are issued in discrete series.
Each series defines its own utility attributes, including:

  • Shorefront access level

  • Platform service fee discounts

  • Listing capacity limits

  • Additional platform benefits

These attributes are fixed at the time of mint for each series and are published in a corresponding Series Specification.

Holding a TideTurner NFT grants access to the benefits defined for that specific series while the NFT is held.

Shorefront Interaction

Each TideTurner NFT series maps to a maximum Shorefront level.

  • Sellers may subscribe to any Shorefront tier at or below the level unlocked by their TideTurner NFT.

  • A TideTurner NFT does not replace a Shorefront subscription.

  • If no paid Shorefront subscription is active, the seller defaults to Shorefront Level 1 capacity.

In this case:

  • Platform fee discounts and non-capacity benefits still apply.

  • Listing limits, live selling tools, and usage limits follow the active Shorefront subscription level.

Capacity Limits

Platform fee discounts apply only up to the listing limits of the active Shorefront tier.

Listings beyond that capacity do not receive TideTurner-based fee discounts unless covered by another eligible discount source.

Change Protection

Fisheez may introduce new TideTurner series with different attributes.

However:

  • Existing TideTurner NFTs are never reduced in utility

  • Changes to Shorefront limits or discounts apply only to future series

  • Prior series benefits are grandfathered


4. How Discounts Are Applied (Best Discount Wins)

Only one discount may apply per transaction.

Fisheez evaluates discounts in the following order:

  1. Buyer Shorefront tier discount

  2. Seller Shorefront tier discount

  3. Buyer TideTurner NFT discount

  4. Seller TideTurner NFT discount

The highest available discount is applied to the buyer’s platform service fee.

Discounts do not stack.

Example

  • Buyer has Shorefront 3 (10% off)

  • Seller holds a Whale NFT (100% off)

Result: Buyer pays 0% platform fee.


5. Fee Calculation Formula

At checkout:

BaseFee% = Tier lookup based on transaction size
Discount% = Highest eligible discount
Final Fee = BaseFee% × (1 - Discount%) × Transaction Total

All calculations are shown to the buyer before confirming payment.


6. Advertising & Subscription Discounts

Some TideTurner tiers include:

  • Shorefront subscription discounts (monthly or yearly)

  • Advertising fee discounts

These benefits apply only while the NFT is held and do not stack with other promotional discounts unless explicitly stated.


7. Charity Votes

Each TideTurner NFT includes a fixed number of charity votes that may be used in Fisheez-sponsored charitable initiatives.

Charity votes:

  • Have no cash value

  • Cannot be transferred independently of the NFT

  • Are governed by the Charity Program Rules


8. Transferability & Duration

  • TideTurner NFTs are transferable unless otherwise restricted.

  • Benefits apply only to the current holder.

  • Benefits stop immediately upon transfer or sale of the NFT.


9. No Investment or Profit Expectation

TideTurner NFTs:

  • Do not provide income, dividends, or profit sharing

  • Do not guarantee savings or usage frequency

  • Do not imply future value or resale expectations

They are designed solely as marketplace utility access tokens.


10. Program Changes

Fisheez may modify:

  • Discount percentages

  • Tier mappings

  • Listing limits

  • Associated benefits

All changes are governed by §12 (Changes to Terms) of the Terms of Service and will be published in the Legal Center before taking effect.


11. Conflict Resolution

If there is a conflict between this policy and other platform policies, the following order applies:

  1. Terms of Service
