What is Etsy? Etsy sales overview in Turkey (2025)

Etsy is a global marketplace for handmade, design, customizable and vintage goods. It is possible to sell on Etsy from Turkey; however, payment and verification requirements may vary depending on the country.

With Print on Demand (POD) you can sell your design through a production partner. Etsy requires you to transparently list the production partner (e.g. Podbul) as “Production Partner”.

• Target audience: niche, design-oriented, gift-oriented products
• Policy compliance: royalty, product safety, transparent manufacturing partner declaration
• Pricing: Etsy commission + payment cost + shipping + profit

Opening an Etsy shop: account, verification and basic settings

First create an Etsy account, choose the shop language/currency/location and set the shop name. Then complete the steps to receive payments (Etsy Payments) and billing card; you may be asked for identity verification.

Etsy Payments' country-based eligibility and bank account requirements may be updated over time. For sellers residing in Turkey, be sure to check the terms before opening.

• Store name: catchy, reflecting your niche
• Store policies: clear return, exchange, shipping time
• Store visuals: logo, banner, about text

Etsy product listing and SEO: title, tag, image, variation

Your product title should contain clear words like your main key phrase + model/theme + material. Your first image should be a clean, high-resolution lifestyle mockup to encourage clicks.

Clearly indicate material, size, customization and your manufacturing partner in the product description. Use shipping profiles consistently across the store.
