Help › Seller Settings
Before you can start selling the seller account needs to be set up. You can find it by choosing the "Seller Settings" link from a dropdown menu that pops up when the shopping cart icon is hovered:
Your store
Tell your clients more about yourself. Apart from store name and description you need to select your currency. Please note that when the currency is changed, all your listings and shipping methods will use the new one, however the value will stay the same.
Payment
Payment method specifies how you will be compensated for the items you’re selling. At least one payment method needs to be accepted. We support a variety of payment platforms - Paypal, Skrill, bank transfers but new methods can be added comfortably if need be. In order to add a new method click the "Add new" button in the payment section:
After that you will see a modal window. Click on the method name you want to add (or choose another method). Fill in the fields and confirm the modal. Your method should be now active:
When you click on a payment method you will be able to either edit it or remove it:
Shipping
Shipping method specifies what kind of collectibles you will be able to ship and how. You need to offer at least one shipping method. Click the "Add new" button in the shipping section in order to add a new method. After that you will see a modal window. Let’s break it down into smaller parts:
- Category: You can specify the shipping methods for each category separately because of the size/weight differences between items.
- Sending to: Is this shipping method valid for your country, abroad, or both?
- Shipping method: If shipping method isn't on the list, choose the closest match and describe the details in description field.
- Shipping company: Type in the shipping company name or leave this field empty.
- Price ranges: Choose how many items can be sent in one package for a definite price. Combined postage attracts more buyers to your listings. This is the total shipping cost. Packaging cost should be included in this price.
- Delivery time: In how many days after receiving payment will you ship the items? If you are not sure, select the most pessimistic version. The next two fields: how many business days does this shipping method usually take to arrive to the buyer? If possible, use the official values provided by your shipping company.
Listing default values
When you create a new listing it might be tedious specify all of the details every time. Instead, you can save listing duration and renewal beforehand. It works the same as when selling one item but is filled out once for all future listings.
Items ship from
As with payment methods you can have different shipping addresses. It might be useful when you have more than one home address or when you want to send the items from your work address.
Seller actions
There are two possible actions you can apply to your active listings:
- Pause/Restore all listings: This option allows you to pause or restore all listings. Paused listings aren’t shown on the marketplace and can be seen only by their seller on the “My Listings” page. Expired paused listings aren’t shown on any marketplace list including “My Listings” page, but aren’t removed and will be restored along with not expired listings when unpaused. To unpause your listings click “Restore all listings”.
- Restore listing renewals: Use it to set the number of renewals to 10 for all your open listings. This will help you to keep your listings constantly auto-renewed and to avoid their removal from the marketplace after their expiry.
Featured seller
It's a paid feature that gives you a chance to be presented at the top of the sales list. For more details, please visit Featured sellers.
