Once you've been approved as a Handmade.com seller, you'll receive a congratulations email inviting you to set up your shop.

If you have not already created an account, start by choosing Sign Up from the user dropdown on the homepage. Create your account using the same email address you applied with — this is important because it's tied to your approved seller status. Follow the onscreen prompts to create your account.

If you already have a Handmade.com account, choose Log In from the user drop-down on the homepage. Again, make sure you are using the same email address you applied with, as it is linked to your seller status.

Once logged in, select Manage Your Store from the user drop-down in the upper right corner of the homepage. If you do not see this in the drop-down, please log out and log back in or refresh the page.

From there, follow the onboarding prompts. The process will walk you through four steps:

• The Ethical Pledge — our commitment to keeping the marketplace authentic. Every seller signs before opening their shop.
• Your Storefront — your shop name, description, and the details that tell the story of your work.
• Shipping Setup — connecting Shippo to manage your shipping. You can skip this and connect Shippo later if needed. Please note, a Shippo account is required if you plan to offer real-time calculated shipping.
• Payout Setup — connecting Stripe to handle your payouts and get verified to start selling.
