Setting up only takes a few minutes. You verify a few details, confirm your identity, and you are ready to list. This guide walks through each step and the fixes for the most common snags.
You will receive a 6-digit code. If you signed in with Google or Apple, this step is already done. If the code does not arrive, check spam and request a new one.
Review the Seller Policy and fee schedule, then accept.
Enter a US mobile number and confirm the text message code. Landlines and internet (VoIP) numbers are not accepted, and each number works on one account only. More in phone verification.
This is where shipping labels are generated from and where returns go. Sellers ship from the lower 48 states or Washington, DC.
A card on file is a backup for fees that can apply if an order is not shipped. You will not be charged for normal selling.
We verify every seller for the security of the whole marketplace. See why we require ID verification.
You will upload a photo of a government ID and take a selfie through Stripe Identity. It usually takes under two minutes. Payouts are not released until your identity is verified.
Tip: use a regular web browser rather than the browser inside the Misprint app, and finish in one sitting on one device. If the camera will not start, allow camera access for your browser.
You can skip this for now and list right away, but earnings stay pending until your payout account is ready. You can be paid by bank transfer, or choose Misprint store credit and get a 5% bonus on every payout (on the first $7,500 of each item's price). Follow our payout setup guide.
Add a store link, and connect a tool like CardUploader, DeckTradr, or SortSwift if you manage inventory elsewhere. See API keys and integrations.
Every new seller on Misprint verifies their identity. We do it for the security of everyone on the marketplace, and so buyers can trust the sellers they buy from.
Verification is handled securely through Stripe. You upload a photo of a government ID and take a selfie, and it usually takes under two minutes.
Finish the username step first, then return to Start Selling. If the prompt keeps coming back, contact support with a screenshot so we can take a look.
Some accounts are paused while we review an identity or device mismatch. Reply with a clear description of what you see, and any device details. See account restrictions.
No manual approval. As soon as you finish the required setup steps (email, terms, phone, return address, payment method, and identity verification), your seller account is created automatically.
Yes. You can list and sell before you finish payout setup, but your earnings stay pending until your Stripe payout account is fully set up. Finish it early so your first sale can pay out on time.
Check your spam folder and confirm the email on your account is correct. You can request a new code from the setup step. If you signed up with Google or Apple, your email counts as verified already (unless you used Apple’s Hide My Email, in which case you confirm a contact email). Still stuck? Contact support with the email on your account.
Seller phone verification needs a US mobile number that can receive text messages. Landlines and internet (VoIP) numbers are not accepted, and each number can only be used on one Misprint account.
Verification is automatic through Stripe, so there is no approval queue. Use a regular web browser (misprint.com on your phone or computer) rather than the browser inside the Misprint app, and finish every step in one sitting on the same device. Then keep clicking through the remaining steps so your seller account finishes creating.
Seller accounts currently need a US address in the lower 48 states or Washington, DC, and tracking numbers that work with our system. We are working on expanding eligibility. If you are in a US territory or another region, contact support before setting up.
New sellers start at Level 1 and move up automatically as orders are delivered. If you already have sales history on another marketplace, you can ask for a higher level with screenshots. You can do this from the Request Limit Increase button that appears when you reach a listing limit, or by contacting us with the topic "Seller level". Directions are on the Seller Levels page.
Verifying sellers keeps the marketplace safer for everyone. It helps us prevent fraud and duplicate or fake accounts, protects buyers and honest sellers, and lets buyers trust who they are buying from. New sellers must also be verified before payouts are released. Verification is done securely through Stripe.
Yes. You can choose Misprint store credit as your payout method and receive a 5% bonus on each payout (on the first $7,500 of each item's price, never more than the sale price in total). The credit is spent on Misprint and cannot be withdrawn as cash. You can switch between bank transfer and store credit in your Seller Profile.
