Aviarto is an online teen-founded handmade products marketplace
It’s a place where you can buy and sell British handmade products.
Our mission is to support the makers living in the United Kingdom by providing them with a platform that meets their needs at the low possible cost. Our partners are our users, so we strive to ensure that aviarto is constantly evolving to fit our Buyers and Sellers needs.
Is Aviarto a UK alternative to Etsy?
Kind of, but we don’t consider our platform as an Etsy Alternative. As we all know Etsy still the most powerful marketplace to sell handmade but as a seller, you can use aviarto alongside Etsy by encouraging your previous customers to order from your aviarto workshop which could help you to maximise your profits.
I’m a seller, How Aviarto is letting me maximise my profits?
We charge only £3 per month for unlimited listings, There are no further charges other than those taken by Paypal or Stripe when you make a sale.

Excellent!
Thank you ?
Hi, how much do you charge please. Im interested in the year membership
Hi Millie, we have 2 membership plans. Free Plan & Supportive Plan (Paid for £3 per month). If you’re interested in the yearly paid membership it’d cost you £36, For more information please contact us via this link or hello@aviarto.com
What is the difference between the paid and the free plan?
Hi Marija, both plans got almost the same features, the only one is the Promotions. in the free version you have to pay £1 to promote a listing but in the paid version you can promote it for free.
How does “promotion” work please
Hi Ann, as a seller under our Supportive Plan the promotions are free. when you promote a listing, it will appear on the aviarto homepage, in the first search results of aviarto and we will also share it on our Instagram page (@aviarto). to use it you just have to click the ‘Promotion’ button beside the listing that you want to promote it.
Note: the promotion will last for 5 days. during the promotion time, you can’t promote another listing.
Hello, I’ve just found Aviarto! It’s exactly what I was looking for ?
That’s lovely to hear, We’re so glad to have you between us in our Crafters community.
At the moment I am only shipping in the uk as costs to other countries price me out of the market, do you offer this alternative?
Hi, we just updated our shipping system, Now you can set only the United Kingdom in your Shipping Zones.
So glad to have found this platform. Thank you! Would be lovely of there was an app for this too ?
That’s so sweet to hear, we will start working on a mobile application soon.
What happens if I’d like to accept PayPal and another vendor accepts ‘stripe’ but the customer has both our items in the cart?
As a seller, you receive your earnings in the way how you’d like. On the ‘Request Payment’ page You have the right to choose your payment method (Stripe, PayPal or Bank transfer).
This is fantastic as I’m struggling to get my feet off the ground just to make some kind of income add I can’t work, Thank you
We wish you all the luck ?
