SELLER STUDIO · GETTING STARTED
Everything you need to launch
Follow these steps to open your BlackSpace store, list your first products, and start selling to our community of buyers.
Step by Step
Your path to opening a store
Create your seller account
Register at myblackspace.co and complete your Seller Member profile. You’ll need your business name, contact details, and a brief bio about your brand and what you sell.
Set up your storefront
Customize your store with a logo, banner image, and store description. First impressions matter — a complete storefront earns buyer trust before they see a single product.
List your first products
Upload high-quality photos, write descriptive titles, and set competitive pricing. Products with 3+ photos and detailed descriptions consistently outsell sparse listings.
Add your product dimensions and shipping guidelines
BlackSpace coordinates shipping labels and pricing automatically — the shipping cost is calculated and charged to the buyer at checkout. Your job is to make sure each product listing has accurate dimensions and weight, and that your shipping handling notes are clear. Correct dimensions keep shipping costs accurate and prevent surprises for your buyers.
Connect your Stripe account to receive payments
BlackSpace uses Stripe to pay sellers. From your seller dashboard, go to Payments and connect your Stripe account — Stripe will walk you through a short setup. Once connected, your earnings are released automatically when each order is marked complete. You don’t need an existing Stripe account; Stripe creates one for you during setup.
Share your store and start selling
Your store is live. Share your unique store URL on social media, in your email signature, and anywhere your customers are. The BlackSpace community is ready to support you.
