Getting Started: Setting Up Your Stall

Welcome aboard! Once you've signed up and your storefront has been approved, your seller dashboard is home base for everything — adding what you sell, telling buyers about your stall, and setting how and when they can reach you. None of this needs to be perfect on day one. Everything below can be changed any time, so feel free to get the basics in and refine it as you go.

Here's a tour of the five "My Stall" cards you'll see on your dashboard, in the order we'd suggest tackling them.

1. Your listings

This is what you actually sell — eggs, veg, honey, plants, crafts, whatever it is. Each listing has a title, description, category, price, and as many photos as you like.

• Price & unit — set a price and pick the right unit (each, per dozen, per kg, per punnet, and so on). For anything sold by weight, you can also set an average weight so buyers see a realistic estimated price.
• Photos — add a few and mark your best one as "featured" so it's what shows first. A clear, well-lit photo makes a real difference to how a listing performs.
• Feature a listing — star your best or most in-season items so they sort to the top of your storefront.
• Hide, don't delete — if something's out of season or sold out, hide it rather than deleting it. It disappears from your storefront but you can switch it back on in a click when it's back.

Manage all of this from Your listings.

2. Business profile

Your profile is the information side of your storefront — name, tagline, short story, contact details, social links and where you are.

• Tagline — a short, punchy line that sums up your stall. It shows up wherever your storefront appears in the directory.
• Location — if buyers visit you in person, drop a pin on the map so you show up in nearby searches and on the map page. Selling online-only? You can skip this.
• Contact & social links — phone, email, website, Instagram, Facebook and more. Add whatever's relevant; none of it is required.

Edit all of this from Business profile.

3. Opening hours

Set your weekly opening hours once and they'll show automatically on your storefront — along with a live "open now" / "closed" indicator buyers see at a glance.

Got a bank holiday, a family event, or a week off coming up? Add a closure date and it'll override your usual hours for just that day, no need to touch your weekly schedule. Manage both from Opening hours.

4. Payment options

Let buyers know how they can actually pay you — cash, card, bank transfer, PayPal, an honesty box, whatever applies. This is just informational and shows as a set of icons on your storefront.

If you want to accept card payments directly through the platform — QR codes at an honesty box, or online ordering with click & collect — that's a paid feature built on Stripe. Set it up from Stripe Connect on the Lite plan and above; the money goes straight to your own bank account.

5. About us

This is where you get to tell your story properly — who you are, how you got started, what makes your stall worth a visit. It's shown on its own tab on your storefront, separate from the short tagline in your profile.

You can also add up to ten photos for a small gallery — your fields, your animals, your stall itself, whatever gives buyers a feel for the place. Edit it from About us.
