Etsy POD Account
 

Hi, I want to open new Etsy shop from EU to sell POD products with Printify(app). New person, IP, User, email, phone, bank(Wise) etc. I’ve read most of the posts on this forum about Etsy and I have mostly questions I couldn’t find answer to. I hope the answers to this post will help others that want to open EU or POD account on Etsy. Here are the questions:

1. I read that need to warm up the account for 10-14 days by visiting 50-100 websites before going to Etsy, then browse Etsy, then open account and purchase 2-4 digital items in the next week, then open seller account. Is this enough or too much?
2. Is it better to purchase the items on Etsy with Wise physical card or via PayPal (still using the wise card)? I will use the same card for the seller account.
3. When filling in the bank details, I am asked for First and Last name. But in the registration, I am asked for full name First Middle and Last name. When doing the bank details, should I put First and Middle name in the place of First name bracket to match the tax info OR on full name add only First and Last OR just keep Full name (3 names) on one place and First Last(2 names) on banking?
4. Bank Country Belgium – WISE in Euros, Person country EU country that accepts Etsy - not Belgium. I don’t have a workaround for bank and person country to match – is this ok?
5. The First item I will list will be physical handmade with photos by myself. After that I will list pod clothing with mockups(not AI mockups) – is this okay?
6. I plan to list 1-2 safe POD items a day until I get 1 sale. I will ship the items from US to US, logins will be from EU(person’s country), but the shop’s shipping profile will be shipping from US. Do you think it’s better to add Printify as production partner after I get the first sale OR is it okay to add it at the beginning – few days after the first listed item and list the items through the Printify app?
7. Is it beneficial to add VAT/Tax number at registration or I can add them when Etsy ask, after some sales threshold?
8. When is it best to add Banner, Profile picture for the shop and personal icon?
9. Is it beneficial to add privacy policy, shop announcement etc.
10. To be safe, how many personal and seller accounts can I open per week on the same laptop?

I want to give you an answer on this -- 10. To be safe, how many personal and seller accounts can I open per week on the same laptop?

You can have many Etsy accounts and all you have to do is use:
mozilla portable, new IP address for each account, and avoid linking them

Do you have to pay GBP 11 for each shop you open?

Re: Etsy POD Account
 

It seems you must pay this fee for each store , not sure it is applied for all the countries of registration

Not happening anymore, when she does more than 1 post in a row in a thread, I will delete them all.

You have been warned several times about your "post count cheating" and you act like you don't understand what I'm talking about. I see now, you do understand and don't care.
