Pedddle is a curated platform and we have certain measures by which we accept stallholders to ensure the standard remains high. Our main acceptance criteria includes:

- High quality product images are essential.
- Clear brand identity.

We want you to get the most from your membership and offer advice and guidance wherever possible.
Other elements will be taken into account but the above criteria is essential for all stallholder members.
Do I need my own website?
No.
Your Pedddle page can link to and feature items from online shops including Folksy, Etsy, And So To Shop and Shopify.
You can also link to your social media channels on Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest and Twitter.
How often should I change my product photos?
Your Pedddle page will raise your business’ visibility, so it is important to ensure product images are up to date. Once you have a Pedddle page set up, you can change the photo gallery as often as you’d like.
We recommend keeping your page fresh, with current products and clear product photography.
My business is new – is Pedddle suitable for me?
The age of your business will not be taken into account when joining Pedddle. Even if you are new to the market scene or have never sold at events before, we are happy to support you and help you to get started.
Can I add markets/events that are not listed on Pedddle?
We have a large database of markets already, but you can add a market if it is not already listed on our website. You can ‘check-in’ to every market that you sell at. Click here to see how check-in works.
Am I tied into a contract?
No. We want you to feel free in making decisions about your business. If Pedddle membership isn’t working for you, you can cancel it, we will stop taking payment and we will remove your Pedddle page.
