Etsy is a worldwide market for unique and creative goods. It is home to a universe of special, extraordinary items, ranging from handcrafted items to vintage treasures. Launched in 2005, and headquartered in Brooklyn, New York, Etsy has created a niche for itself specializing in unique or vintage items and craft supplies.

They thrive in an era of increasing automation to keep human connection at the core of commerce. That is why Etsy created a space where creativity can make way as it is powered by people. Etsy assists an entire community of sellers in turning their ideas into profitable businesses. The platform connects them with millions of buyers looking for an alternative in one spot without much hassle.

What Sellers Should Know About Cancellation

If you cancel your site at any point during the month, you must still pay the full subscription fee for that month. Your site will be active till the month’s end for which you have already paid. After canceling, select ‘deactivate my site’ now to disable it immediately. If you choose to keep your website going until the end of the month, it will be live until the last day of the month, at which point it will be automatically removed. If you registered a domain through Etsy, it will remain active even after you close your Pattern membership. It is important to note that before you can fully close a shop, Etsy requires you to resolve any complaints and pay any outstanding fees.

Whether you want to take a break or permanently close your Etsy shop subscription, doing it is as simple as a couple clicks. You must close any unresolved cases and any overdue fees before closing your shop. You should also complete any outstanding orders. If you would like to shut your Etsy account but still have running orders which need to be completed, you can activate the “Vacation Mode”, which allows you to complete existing orders while not accepting new ones. After that, you can finally close your shop and cancel your subscription.
