Shop products. Find local services.
Support independent businesses.

Yes. Products and services are categorized separately within the same storefront. For example, a baker can sell a custom cake as a product and list a cake-decorating class as a service. Each service has its own category, subcategory, price, availability and service-location type.

Yes. Select Save store on a published storefront. Choose preorders, sales, announcements or store messages, and select in-app, text, email or push preferences. You can also save without notifications. New preorders automatically create alerts for opted-in followers. Manage or unsubscribe in Buyer account → Store updates. In-app alerts work now; text, email and push delivery still require provider setup. Store promotions require separate optional consent, not your order-text consent.

The business is responsible for its products or services, fulfillment, lawful refunds and payment disputes. Contact it first. Sellown may investigate and assist, but does not promise to pay a business’s refund obligations. Consumer rights and Sellown’s own legal duties remain intact.

Sellown is for independent merchants, home businesses, social-media sellers and local service providers—including food vendors, makers, boutiques, barbers, photographers, cleaners, caterers, tutors and other skilled professionals—who want a professional, flexible storefront.

Yes. Create a preorder drop, choose the selling or pickup date, set the cutoff, select products, and share the link. Your whole catalog does not need to stay open every day.

Yes. Set a maximum for each product and enable automatic sell-out. Sellown counts units, shows what remains, and disables that item when its limit is reached.

Yes. The payment can be authorized first and captured only after the seller accepts. A decline or timeout cancels the authorization and releases preorder capacity. Live payment capture is not connected yet.

Yes. Personalize the store name, brand color, tagline, announcement, cover style, and logo shape while checkout and navigation remain familiar.

Yes. Sellers choose a primary language and manually add storefront, Owner Profile, and product translations in English, Spanish, French, German, or Simplified Chinese. Sellown does not use AI translation or charge a translation fee.

Yes. A seller can publish an optional Owner Profile with a photo, story, background, and experience. The seller controls whether it appears.

Sellown-organized promotional sales featuring approved discounted products. Verified merchants can apply to free online events or paid in-person events when details are announced.

Yes. Each storefront and preorder has a shareable link for WhatsApp, Instagram, Facebook, text messages, and other channels.

Pickup, local delivery, shipping, or a combination. Scheduled preorder drops currently use pickup so expectations are clear. Made-to-order products let sellers choose which fulfillment methods are allowed for each availability window.

Sellown focuses on relationship-driven small businesses with flexible selling dates, local discovery, simple branding, preorders, and promotional events.

Choose Create seller account, sign in, complete the business details, personalize the store, then add products, services, or both. Publish from Storefront when the business is ready to be discovered.

No. Each checkout is for one merchant, and regular purchases and scheduled preorders use separate bags. Sellown asks before replacing an existing bag.

Not yet. Notification records are queued, but outbound SMS and automated email still need providers. During testing, check Buyer account for updates.

Request verification from Savings Days. Sellown reviews the merchant, and a verified, published store may submit active products. Each promotional product also needs approval.

Not in the current planning preview. Online participation is free; an in-person event has a separate fee announced before payment. A submission is not a confirmed booth booking.

No. Publish only a general pickup area. Share exact instructions after confirming the order; the current app does not send them automatically.

Marketplace has no monthly fee. The planned live-payment offer is 30 days at 0% Sellown commission, then 5%, with payment-processing fees separate.

Check each merchant’s terms before ordering. Orders do not charge money yet, so there are no live refunds or payouts. Self-service cancellation, automated refunds, and disputes are not available yet.

No platform can guarantee sales. Keep using WhatsApp, Instagram, Facebook, and other channels to reach customers; Sellown organizes the storefront and ordering behind those links.
