Getting Started: Completing Your Seller Profile Setup

Configuring Your Seller Profile

Once logged in, you must complete your profile so that you can add your products, get paid, and so customers know who they are buying from.

1. General Information

  1. Navigate to Profile > My Account in the left-hand menu.
  2. Business Details: Ensure any pre-populated information is correct and fill in any of the required fields if blank.
  3. Profile Image: Upload a high-quality square logo (typically 500x500px) that represents your brand.

2. Branding & Visuals

  1. Banner Image: Upload a wide banner for your profile page to give your shop a professional look (typically 900x225px).
  2. Shop Description: Write a brief "About Us" section in the ‘Short Store Description’ explaining your brand and what makes your products unique. Provide a more detailed description in the ‘Detailed Store Description’ field. 

3. Contact & Social Media

  1. Contact Details: Enter an email and phone number.
  2. Social Links: Add links to your Facebook, Instagram, or Twitter profiles, if applicable.

4. Policies & Address

  1. Return/Shipping Policy: Clearly state your rules for returns and shipping timelines to avoid customer disputes.
  2. Seller Address: Input your physical business location; this is used for calculating shipping rates if Seller Standard Shipping is enabled.

Part 3: Final Checklist for Launch

Before you start adding products, ensure these three critical areas are finished:
  1. Payment
    1. Enter your PayPal or Bank details under Payment Configuration so the admin can pay you your earnings.
  2. Shipping
    1. Go to Shipping Configuration to enable your preferred shipping methods (e.g., Seller Standard Shipping).
  3. Status Check
    1. Ensure your profile status is set to "Active"; if it is "Pending," you may need to wait for Admin approval.
