Step-by-Step Guide to Opening and Selling on Etsy

Try to following this step until finish:

Step 1: Prepare Before Opening Your Shop

Before you create your Etsy shop, make sure you have:

  1. Products to sell – handmade items, vintage goods (20+ years old), or craft supplies.

  2. Good product photos – clear, bright, and professional-looking.

  3. Bank account & PayPal (if available) – so Etsy can send you your earnings.

  4. Shop name idea – something unique and easy to remember.

Step 2: Open Your Etsy Shop

  1. Go to Etsy.com.

  2. Log in with your account.

  3. Click “Sell on Etsy” from the menu (like in your screenshot).

  4. Click “Open your Etsy shop.”


Step 3: Set Up Your Shop

  • Choose shop language, country, and currency

  • Pick your shop name (example: “Serba Sinergi Crafts”)

  • Add product listings (title, photos, description, price, stock, tags/keywords)

  • Set shipping options (domestic & international if you want)


Step 4: Set Up Payment & Billing

  • Add your bank details to receive money.

  • Depending on your country (Indonesia), you may need Payoneer or bank transfer for payouts.


Step 5: Publish & Promote Your Shop

  • Launch your shop.

  • Share your Etsy link on Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, or Shopee to bring traffic.

  • You can also use Etsy Ads to promote inside Etsy.


Step 6: Start Selling & Earning

Once people buy your products, the money will go to your Etsy balance. After Etsy takes their small fees, the rest will be deposited into your bank/Payoneer.
