Sellers from mainland China who want to open a store on Etsy need to have overseas information, such as information from Hong Kong.

1. E-mail: There is no specific requirement for the e-mail address. It is recommended to use Outlook or Gmail to avoid not receiving platform emails.

2. PayPal account. Currently, Etsy platform only supports PayPal payment for Chinese sellers, and only individual sellers are accepted, so you need to prepare a personal PayPal account.

3. Dual currency credit card. VISA and Master Card, or other credit cards that support dual currencies are all acceptable.

4. Product main picture and description. Prepare your product pictures and description.

3. How is the Etsy platform?

Etsy may seem like a small platform, but its profit margin is very high, and the items it sells are relatively unique and in relatively small quantities, so it is suitable for new sellers to settle in.

It is different from large platforms like Amazon which have various rules and search optimization keywords.

There is almost no skill involved in running Etsy. Sellers only need to share their products. There is no late-night follow-up sales and no "intrigue".

As long as the product itself is strong, sophisticated, and creative, the platform official will actively recommend it to you, so you don’t have to worry about traffic. It is very suitable for novices to start!

In summary, to register a store on Etsy, Chinese people need to have overseas information, and information from Hong Kong, China is also acceptable. Information from the mainland is not acceptable.
