Apply to become a seller
Quality work and fair pricing are critical to the success of all our sellers, and of the Sketchfab Store as a whole. In order to become a seller, we will review your portfolio to see if it meets the following criteria:
- Make sure your Sketchfab portfolio is representative of your work. If you have less than 5 models in your Sketchfab portfolio, please provide us with alternative URLs (in the seller application from the button below) where we can see your work. (Please note that we examine draft uploads as well.)
- All models, textures, and/or animations are your original property.
- Work is modeled to an acceptable industry standard in keeping with other sellers in the store.
- Thumbnails, titles, and descriptions accurately reflect the items for sale.
- Models are accurately UV mapped when UVs are used.
- Clean topology is employed.
- Textures (when used) and materials are optimized and efficient.
- Models specifically sold for 3D printing are water-tight and appropriately constructed.
See our Seller Guidelines for more details, or browse our store to get a sense of the kind of quality we deem acceptable.
Link your PayPal account
Once your seller application has been approved via email, you can link your PayPal account to your Sketchfab account. (We hope to offer alternative payment services in the future.)
You can connect your PayPal account by clicking the "Link" button under your Account Settings.
There are two ways to connect your PayPal account to Sketchfab: Business or Personal.
PayPal Business
Since Sketchfab is working with PayPal for Marketplaces, you'll notice a PayPal Business account is available. This is a free PayPal upgrade with no additional fees.
You can use this account type as an individual instead of a registered business too. We recommend the following settings – "Individual", "Entertainment and media", "Digital media, books, movies, music" – this will require no more business records, VAT information, etc.
Make sure to check both boxes during the linking process, agreeing to PayPal's User Agreement as well as giving the proper permissions to Sketchfab. This is required for the link to be successful.
PayPal Personal
After clicking the "Link your PayPal Account" button in Account Settings, you should check the option for "Casual Seller".
You may see "Waiting for PayPal verification" in your Account Settings. You should receive an email from Sketchfab shortly after that (anywhere from several minutes to more than an hour), verifying your PayPal Business account is verified and linked.
Once you've been accepted to be a Sketchfab seller and your PayPal account has been successfully linked, it's time to set up your store!

Thanks @burunduk I'll add a +1 on our end. In the future, you can always feel free to send feature requests through the request form here: https://help.sketchfab.com/hc/en-us/requests/new (just in case we want to chat privately with you about it).
can i add payoneer?
Hi @fahim0168474 You can't add or use Payoneer on Sketchfab yet although we are collecting feedback from users that would like to use alternative payment methods in the future.
waiting for a Payoneer account.
Understood, thanks for the feedback!
希望有支付宝
Hi @hedonglion! Thanks for the feedback. We're still working on finding alternative payment options.
PayPal can not available in my country, i can't sell my models, Please we wants IBAN system, IBAN is a universal solution more than PayPal.
I've been waiting about a year. I have 120 models that I sell at other markets and I am ready to sell. However, PayPal is not supported in my country. If the payoneer payment method comes, both you and we increase your market share for the sellers. Win - win :)
Thanks for the notes @haluk_sarnel and @ozantercan! We're not quite there yet with alternative payments although we're doing our best to speed it up. We'll be sure to share everything when it's possible.
No PayPal in Turkey
I have 200 models, it would be good if Payoneer
Thanks for the note @akerStudio We know there are limitations to using PayPal, so we're looking at alternative payment systems.
When you to add support for master cards?
More than a year has passed since the opening of the store.
paypal a disgusting and not convenient system for many countries.
@alekv We're still working on an alternative payment option. Unfortunately, it's harder than it seems, but we'll be sure to notify you when we do.
Need Payoneer instead of Paypal. Thanks
We definitely understand the need for another payment system @3d_expart and we're working on it! We'll be sure to let everyone know when it's ready!
payoneer please!
payoneer needed please. why are you limited to paypal?
Hello! I want to be a seller and applied for a week ago. And still have not received an answer. Not yet verified? And if the answer is no, will you tell me about it?
Hello! Sorry for the delay. Our Store team should be in touch about your application soon!
Why am i not getting seller account? It's been 2 weeks now. How long does it take?
Sorry! I'm asking our Store team to take a look.
I'm waiting payoneer since 1 year so that I can't sell my models. I can't use Paypal in Turkey, you guys have to add Payoneer as soon as possible.
we are missing this wonderful website just for the payment method. Please add Payoneer as soon as you can.
Thanks :)
How to become seller?
can i sale my model in "Plan Plus".
Hello,
You do not need any particular paid plan to sell on Sketchfab. Just follow the application instructions above!
You say you will add the payoneer option in response to all comments, but you do not share any developments in this situation. Can you please tell us about this situation ?
Hello,
Adding another payout method such as Payoneer is on our long-term todo list, but we are not actively working on it at this time, so I have no ETA. We are continuing to collect feedback on this issue.
It's about a month and I'm not getting seller account? If it really takes this long then why didn't you tell us in the first place? When i applied for seller, it said few business days maybe 2-5 i think or something like that but now it's a month.
Hi Avalanche9
We definitely sent you an email 1 month ago in response to your application. Maybe you need to check spam?
Feel free to also apply again.
