Creation fee​

It is controlled by shop.cost, set it to 0 for free.
Enable shop.refund to refund the creation fee. To pay refunds from the QuickShop tax account, also enable shop.refund-from-tax-account. A player may not receive a refund if the tax account does not have enough money.

Price changing fee​

To prevent players from changing shop prices too frequently, enable shop.price-change-requires-fee.
After this option is enabled, players must pay the amount specified by shop.fee-for-price-change each time they change a price.

Naming fee​

To charge players for naming their shops, set shop.name-fee to a nonzero value.
Players must pay this fee each time they change a shop's name.

Ongoing Fee​

To discourage players from keeping large numbers of idle shops and to maintain market balance, you can enable an ongoing fee.

When this feature is enabled, players pay the amount set by shop.ongoing-fee.cost-per-shop every shop.ongoing-fee.ticks game ticks for each shop they own.

If player cannot afford the ongoing-fee, the shops will be deleted.

Tax​

QuickShop provides a configurable taxation system.

Configuration​

#Tax amount (decimal)
#Example: P1 buys $50 worth of stuff from P2.  Therefore, P1 loses $50, P2 gains $(1-0.05)*50, and the tax-account gains $(0.05)*50.
tax: 0.05

#The fake player where the tax money goes to.
#Set this to "" to disable it (Taxing will still work but not deposit to any account)
tax-account: tax

# Disable taxes for unlimited shop
tax-free-for-unlimited-shop: false

#Whether to show taxes paid when selling to a shop
show-tax: false

Transaction Tax​

For every transaction, we will took some amount from transaction for tax, it controlled by option tax.

1 means 100%, 0.05 means 5%, you need convert the percentage to decimal format.

You can also turn on show-tax to allow player see the taxes included in transaction.

Tax Account​

By default, all tax were going to a account named tax.
Depends on the difference in economy plugins and the design of your server, default value may won't work well, and you might want change it.

tax-account accepts both player username and player's uuid.
