Become an Ingenious Gifts Maker
A curated, application-only marketplace for UK artisan makers who want more than just listings. Magazine features. Live shopping. Homepage visibility. 0% commission. Limited spaces. Quarterly intakes.
Why Join Ingenious Gifts?
At Ingenious Gifts, we believe in long-term partnerships. We support makers, promote their work, and connect them to an audience that values craftsmanship. With no commission, real marketing tools and exclusive features, you’re more than a seller – you’re part of a craft-led community that grows together.
Limited Availability & Priority Access
To keep Ingenious Gifts curated and high-quality, each seller plan has a capped number of spaces. If we have room in your chosen plan, you’ll move straight into onboarding and get started right away.
If a plan becomes full, we’ll temporarily close new spaces and open a simple waitlist. Makers are notified in order of signup as soon as spots become available.
This approach means you always receive the support you need, and our marketplace remains a thoughtfully curated space for independent creators.
