| How Selling Works |
|
| Sign up |
|
| It's free and easy. Choose your username and password, then confirm an email address.
There's an extra step of signing up to be a seller (after choosing your username). To prevent
against fraud we require that you keep a valid credit card on file. |
|
|
| Set up your shop |
|
| Every seller on Etsy gets their own shop (for free),
located at username.etsy.com.
For example, if my username is rokali, my shop is at rokali.etsy.com.
You can customize your shop by adding a banner, bio etc. |
|
|
| List an item |
|
| Listing an item is done in five simple steps. We recommend that you've got your photos
and description ready before jumping in. Listing an item costs 20 cents per quantity. |
|
|
| Selling an item |
|
| As a seller you get to choose what payment methods you accept.
We recommend PayPal, as it facilitates instant payment and offers
anti-fraud protection. When an item sells both the buyer and
seller are sent emails with the transaction details in it.
There's a 3.5% sales fee. |
|
|
| Fees |

| Reporting transactions |
|
| We keep a tight ship here on Etsy, and we respond to all reported transactions
quickly. If a buyer does not pay for an item, we will happily refund all fees associated with
the transaction, letting you relist it for free. |
