About

Etsy is the global marketplace for unique and creative goods. It’s home to a universe of special, extraordinary items, from unique handcrafted pieces to vintage treasures. In a time of increasing automation, it’s our mission to keep human connection at the heart of commerce. That’s why we built a place where creativity lives and thrives because it’s powered by people. We help our community of sellers turn their ideas into successful businesses. Our platform connects them with millions of buyers looking for an alternative—something special with a human touch, for those moments in life that deserve imagination. As a company, we strive to lead with our guiding principles and to help spread ideas of sustainability and responsibility whose impact can reach far beyond our own business.

About

Rakuten Ichiba is one of Japan's largest online shopping malls, offering a vast selection of products from over 50,000 merchants. It provides a shop-centric, consumer-focused experience, allowing individual retailers to customize their virtual storefronts and foster human connectedness. Shoppers can find a variety of products sold in Japan, with the added benefit of a robust customer loyalty program called Rakuten Points, where users earn approximately 1% of the purchase price in points that can be redeemed on future purchases. Rakuten Ichiba also integrates AI features to assist merchants, such as the "Create Text" feature that generates product descriptions based on product information, and the "Process Image" feature that creatively edits product image backgrounds to match required scenarios. For international shoppers, Rakuten Global Express offers a proxy shopping service, providing access to all stores on Rakuten Ichiba, even those that do not offer overseas shipping.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • I love that many of the products purchased on Etsy are from small businesses, which it feels good to support them. Each product is very unique and different. I like getting all of my meaningful gifts from Etsy, because the products all seem like they are made with love.
  • Ease of selling. Ease of Buying. Little or low fees for both parties. Ratings make your shop go up higher on the list.
  • The best small business owner platform you can find online. They are a global connection for customers and creatives to sell their art and make a living, I love Etsy!
  • You'll get a bigger audience here than on some of the other indie selling places like Store Envy, but that will also depend on your audience and items. You don't need to do much to set up a shop and you can sell pretty much anything here, from digital downloads to handmade goods to old supplies you have around.

Cons

  • The communication between seller and buyer isn't always the easiest, especially if they are in a different time zone or don't speak the same language.
  • Not a lot to not like about Etsy. Sometimes your craft gets lost within many of the same type of craft, but if you are good, you'll be on top.
  • You have to do your research on the artist, sometimes their products aren’t as high quality as they say. But Etsy is good with requiring a certain standard from their retailers.
  • Etsy's been messing things up for sellers more over the years, especially with the way they do ads. Standing out from the huge amount of sellers can also be tough if you sell something really popular and common.
