Sell your crochet from one beautiful little shop

Same goal, very different fit. Etsy puts you in a crowded marketplace and takes a cut of every sale. Shopify is powerful, built for every kind of business, and priced like it. Crochetify is built just for crocheters: your own storefront, your own brand, 0% taken by us, and everything you need to start selling from $9 a month, without paying for extras you'll never use. You can apply to the Crochetify marketplace too: approved shops are listed there, and each listing links to your own site.

Anything you want. Most makers start with amigurumi, blankets, wearables, and digital patterns, but your shop is your own website, with no category rules. Kits, supplies, other crafts: if you sell it, you can list it. Add finished pieces with stock counts or open up made-to-order items with no limit.

No. Your shop is a standalone website at its own link, with only your brand and your products on it. There's no feed of other sellers around your work and no algorithm deciding who sees it. Crochetify also runs a curated marketplace page where shoppers discover makers. You apply for it separately from your dashboard, and your shop doesn't live there: every marketplace listing links back to your own site, and you can keep any product off it.

The law is the same everywhere you sell: in the US, pieces you crochet from a pattern you bought are generally understood to be yours to sell, and characters or brands someone else owns are protected on every platform. What's different here is that your shop is your own website: no automated sweeps, no strikes from competitor reports. Our terms ask the same thing the law does, that you only sell what you own or have the right to sell, and we act on real complaints, not on an algorithm. Our crochet copyright guide lays out the facts in plain English; what you sell is your call as a business owner.

A few ways. Apply to the Crochetify marketplace from your dashboard: approved shops are listed there and in the Crochetify app, where shoppers browse handmade crochet and click through to buy on your site. Your shop is also built to be found on Google, with fast pages and clean product listings. And your link works anywhere you already have an audience: Instagram, TikTok, markets, or your link-in-bio page.

That's the point. Every shop in the Crochetify marketplace and shops list applied and was approved: real pieces, real photos, made by the maker. You can use AI-generated product images on your own Crochetify website if you want to, but a shop with them won't be approved for the marketplace or promoted by Crochetify.

No. If you can post to Instagram, you can run a Crochetify shop. You fill in a few text boxes, upload your photos, and we handle the website, the checkout, and the security. There's no builder to wrestle with and no code, ever.

Any web browser, on any phone, tablet, or computer. Your shop is a website with its own link, so customers just tap it and check out, with nothing to download or install. It's designed to look and work beautifully on a phone, since that's where most people will find you. We're also building a dedicated Crochetify mobile app, but your shop will always work right in the browser.

Payments run on Stripe, the same processor trusted by millions of businesses, from tiny one-person shops to companies as large as Amazon. Stripe handles the secure checkout, the card processing, and paying your money out to your bank, so you get bank-level security without setting any of it up yourself. You connect your account in a few minutes during onboarding.

The money from your sales is deposited into your own bank account by Stripe. You connect your bank during onboarding, which takes a few minutes, and after that your payouts are automatic. The first payout takes a few days while Stripe verifies your details, then the money lands on a regular rolling schedule. Crochetify never holds your funds or takes a cut.

Crochetify takes 0% of your sales, on every plan. You pick a flat monthly plan starting at $9 and that is the only thing you pay us. The one other cost is the standard card processing fee charged by Stripe (in the US, 2.9% + 30 cents per sale), the same kind of fee you would pay on Etsy, Shopify, or anywhere else that takes cards. That fee goes to Stripe, not to us.

No, and we never even see full card numbers. Card details are entered into Stripe's own secure checkout and handled entirely by Stripe, which is certified to the highest level of payment security (PCI Service Provider Level 1, the same standard the major banks use). Your customers get a checkout they already recognize and trust, and the sensitive data never touches Crochetify's servers.

Yes, on the Pro plan. Connect a web address you own (also called a domain) so your shop lives at yourshop.com, with no extra branding in the address bar. Every shop also gets a free Crochetify address to share right away, on any plan.

Yes. Every Pro plan includes a link-in-bio page that matches your shop, with your products, links, and socials stacked on one fast page. Set it as the one link in your Instagram or TikTok profile and followers land somewhere they can actually buy. You can also share it as a QR code at markets and fairs.

Yes. You can import your listings, and even your reviews, from Etsy, so you are not starting from a blank page or re-typing everything by hand. Bring your catalog over in a few clicks and pick up right where you left off.

Yes. There is no contract, and you can cancel in two clicks from your billing settings. Your shop and products stay saved if you ever want to come back. One thing to know: a custom web address (domain) is billed separately from your plan. If you bought it through Crochetify, cancel it from your domain settings; if you registered it with another provider, it stays billed by them and you will need to cancel it there too.

We are a small team and we read every message. Reach out any time and a human, not a bot, will get back to you.
