What can be listed?

At launch, Meatory focuses on beef — including whole, half, and quarter animal shares, and USDA or state-inspected packaged cuts when available. The platform architecture may support additional species and farm products in the future, but we do not advertise categories that are not yet available for purchase.

If you raise other species and are interested in listing on Meatory, we would love to hear from you. Start the conversation →

Custom-exempt animal shares

When selling custom-exempt animal shares, the farmer remains responsible for complying with applicable federal and state requirements, including processor rules and exemption conditions. Meatory assists with workflow and disclosure — including state eligibility checks and buyer acknowledgments — but does not replace the farmer's legal or regulatory obligations.

Each listing clearly states its processing type. Buyers must acknowledge the custom-exempt nature of their purchase before reserving.

Fees

Meatory charges a marketplace commission on completed transactions. Current seller pricing will be shown before a farm activates listings. There is no upfront cost to create a farm profile or build your farm page.

Getting paid

Buyers pay through Meatory — no need to handle payment directly.

Payment processing is handled securely through Stripe.

Meatory's commission is retained from each transaction.

Your portion becomes eligible for payout after required fulfillment conditions are met.

Payout timing may depend on holds, disputes, and verification status.
