ETSY VCC doubts

[eusebio]

To confirm my seller account I need VCC. Since I am about to create stealth account as my primary got suspended, I believe I can not use VCC connected with the same provider & details of mine (name, address, DOB) which I have used with banned account?

For this reason I reached to sellers here on the marketplace, however, my concern is in regard with this new 15$ or 11pounds fee introduced by etsy. I guess this card has to be preloaded with the amount needed.

Anyone went through the same process? Thoughts?

No opinions?

I'd use a high end VCC for amazon on etsy. That should work fine.

VCC's sold here on the forum will get your account suspended, they are not suitable for etsy.

No balance needed on card during sign up, etsy just checks the card validity.

Card must be unique, but owners name/surname/address or anything else cannot be seen. Just input your new card number + stealth name details

Best of luck!

The problem with Virtual Cards is a headache for many people, thank you for that answer, very accurate, I attest that the vcc of the site does not work for Etsy

You need to check the BIN of the virtual card to determine which bank your card belongs to (the first 6 digits on the card). If it belongs to a popular neobank (like Wise, Revolut), then Etsy anti-fraud system will most likely suspect your account.


Etsy will not be able to check the name on the card, so you can use a card registered under any name.

Her question is WOULD ETSY CHARGE THE CARD FOR OPEN A STORE?

when does ETsy charge a fee,when you open a shop or when you start listing items?

if your VCC has no fund,you would have to top it or replace it with one which does?

then why is she asking about a VCC with zero balance?

if Etsy is asking for 11 GBP to open a store ,then it will charge you that fee when store has been approved,so you would need a VCC with at least that much money,also it would charge you 20 cents in US for every listing

Hi mate,

I am not sure where you get the information of 11 pounds charge during sign up.

The post also mentioned that OP reached sellers on the forum for etsy vcc's. So needed to point out that vcc's here will not work for etsy

I'd say a high end VCC for amazon should be good enough.

If it's good enough for amazon then surely it's good enough for etsy no?

[Davfos]

There's VCC that work very well for Etsy, but the card must have at least $16 loaded.

They will take the money after you open the shop (the last step before going to dashboard), therefore, any cards you use should have the money loaded when you add to Etsy.

I don't have any problems with cards.

On Etsy, there's a lot you should focus on besides VCCs. Just use a vcc from a bank that you know about it,

Agreed, you need to focus on the details you enter when creating, but you must ensure the listings you upload are unique and not commercially available online.
