Etsy

Global online marketplace for handmade goods

About Etsy

Etsy is an online marketplace that connects buyers with sellers of handmade, vintage, and unique goods. The platform allows individual artisans, crafters, and small business owners to list a variety of products, such as jewelry, clothing, home decor, and personalized gifts. Etsy's marketplace is distinct because it focuses on one-of-a-kind items that are often not available in regular retail stores. The company generates revenue through transaction fees, listing fees, and optional advertising services that sellers can use to enhance their visibility. Additionally, Etsy offers subscription packages that provide sellers with advanced tools and analytics to help them grow their businesses.
