Amazon Handmade gives merchants the opportunity to offer handmade products on Amazon. Accordingly, the program represents an opportunity to earn money with their own hobby. Participation is first free of charge and there are also no hidden costs. Fees are only incurred in the event of a generated sale. These amount to a commission of 12 per cent. Amazon Handmade also requires a professional seller account. Furthermore, you have to submit an application for the verification of your products. Amazon wants to make sure that the items you offer are really handmade. You will then receive a corresponding certificate. The categories in which handmade products are currently offered include baby, garden and home supplies, household, pet supplies, artwork, jewelry and many more.
