Open a Shop
Anyone who makes something by hand can sell it here. No monthly fee, no listing fee, and nothing to pay until something of yours actually sells.
What you need before you start
- Work you made or designed yourself. Hand-crocheted, hand-embroidered, hand-finished, hand-printed — all welcome. Resold factory stock is not.
- Five to ten photos of real pieces. Daylight on a plain surface beats a studio. Buyers want to see the stitches.
- A bank account in your name for payouts, and a mailing address we can verify.
- A realistic making time. If a blanket takes you nine days, say nine days. Shoppers forgive slow. They do not forgive surprises.
Four steps, about an afternoon
- 1Tell us what you makeA short form: your craft, your materials, roughly how long a piece takes. No business plan, no fees.
- 2We look at your workA real person reviews every application, usually within two business days. We are checking that it is handmade — not judging your style.
- 3Set up your shop pageName, photo, the story of how you started. This becomes your page at
/fshop/your-shop-name/. - 4List your first piecePhotos, price, making time, and whether a buyer can add a name to it. That last one sells more than anything else on this site.
What it costs to be here
Listing an item: Free · Monthly fee: Free · Commission when something sells: 15% of the item price · Forced advertising fees: none
The full breakdown, with worked examples and an honest comparison against the other marketplaces, is on What It Costs.
What we do, so you can keep making
- We bring the shoppers. Search, seasonal collections, the gift finder, and the personalization tools all point at your listings.
- We handle payment and fraud. Cards, wallets, chargebacks — not your problem.
- We stand behind the order. If something arrives wrong or late, Ettee Purchase Protection covers the buyer, so a bad day does not become a bad review. See how that works.
What stays yours
- Your designs, your photos, your shop name. We never claim ownership of your work.
- Your prices. We do not set them and we do not run sales on your behalf without asking.
- Your customer conversations. Messages go to you, not through a call centre.
Ready when you are
Write to support@ettee.com with the subject “I want to open a shop” and three photos of your work. That is the whole application. We answer every one.
