How verification works

Every seller on our marketplace goes through a human-reviewed verification process before their listings go live. Here's how we keep it real:

  1. 1

    Seller identity check

    We verify each seller is a real person operating a legitimate handmade business, not a reseller or dropshipper.

  2. 2

    Workshop documentation

    Sellers provide evidence of their workspace and process: photos, videos, or other documentation showing how items are made by hand.

  3. 3

    Anti-slop image screening

    Every listing image is checked against known dropship and stock-photo databases. Suspicious listings are held for human review before publication.
