the policy

No sales. No spam. No email to hand over. No newsletter to escape. No popup. No cookie banner. No “we value your privacy.” No app. No login. No password to reset. No loyalty points. No tiers. No countdown timer. No “3 left in stock.” No “people are viewing this now.” No chatbot named Ashley. No quote. No RFP. No call with the team. No demo. No onboarding specialist. No text. No abandoned-cart guilt trip. No retargeting you across the internet for a sweater you already looked at. No.

That is the policy. The rest of this page explains why, for the people who like knowing why. You don't have to read it. There's a cart.

why no sales

A sale is a confession that the price was a lie the rest of the year. The Dispatch would rather just tell you the number. The number is the number. No founder's day, no Black Friday, no coupon, no “use code.” Nobody is standing by — the standing-by is the overhead, and the overhead is the priesthood.

why no spam

The Dispatch does not want your email. Read that again — every other store on earth wants your email more than it wants your money. There is a newsletter, in the sense that the function exists. Joining gets you nothing. It is the only newsletter on the internet with no reason to subscribe to it.

why no data

What does The Dispatch need your data for? You are deploying an engine. The Dispatch already knows the one thing it needs: that you needed the engine. Keeping the data means hiring the exact people The Dispatch exists to make unnecessary.

why shopify and nowhere else

You add it to a cart like a t-shirt and check out like a t-shirt. No enterprise tier. No “let's hop on a call.” No salesperson, because The Dispatch refuses to become one. The cart is the whole sales department. The cart does not have a commission.

the one upcharge

You want any of it stored, texted, or turned into an app — that is ten percent more.

Not a fee The Dispatch wants. A fee The Dispatch is forced to pass through, because the moment your information enters a system, someone has to build and babysit that system — and that someone is the genius fluid surcharge wearing a lanyard. So far nobody has asked.

on buying it at all

The Dispatch is not telling you to buy anything. The engine names tell you what to do — read the name, do the thing, do it yourself, it's faster. If you do it yourself, The Dispatch makes nothing and considers that the correct outcome.

You buy the execution only if you'd rather not do it yourself. If you need to be convinced to do even that, you are not the customer yet. The Dispatch will not convince you. The Dispatch would frankly prefer you took the free version and left it alone.
