Etsy & marketplace alternative for POD sellers

The marketplace keeps your profit and your customers.

Fees skim every order and the buyer’s email stays theirs, so you pay to win the same customer again and again.

The real cost of staying

What the marketplace quietly takes from you.

Five things marketplace sellers feel before they decide to own their store.

Fees quietly eat your margin.

Listing, transaction and ad fees shrink an already-thin margin – you sell more and somehow keep less.

Real photo – thin margins

Copycats blur your brand.

The moment a design trends, the platform shows cheaper duplicates right beside it – and buyers can’t tell which is really yours.

Real photo – copycat shock

One policy change can suspend you.

A single rule switch can bury your listings, freeze payouts, or close the account you built – with no warning and no appeal.

Real photo – a suspension notice

You can’t email your own buyers.

The customer and their inbox belong to the marketplace – so you can’t remarket, announce, or sell to them again.

Real photo – locked-out seller

Your ad clicks leak away.

You pay for the click, then it lands on a generic listing grid beside competitors instead of your own brand page.

Store vs Marketplace

Every sale builds
their platform, not your brand.

On a marketplace you rent the customer. On your own store, you keep them.

The more of these you feel, the more a marketplace is costing you – and the more you’d gain from owning your store.

The money logic

Same traffic. More profit when the store is yours.

Why an owned store earns more from the exact clicks you already pay for.

Keep your margin

No marketplace listing, transaction, or referral fees skimming a cut off every order you sell.

Own the customer

Capture the email and remarket – so one buyer becomes repeat revenue, not a one-time sale you never see again.

Lift every order

Upsells and live personalization raise average order value – revenue levers the marketplace never let you add.

The solution

Move to BurgerShop and
own your business.

Six shifts you feel the moment buyers land on your brand instead of a listing.

Storefront

Buyers trust you on sight

A branded storefront and your own domain make first-time visitors feel safe to buy.

    FAQ

    Leaving the marketplace, answered.

    The questions sellers ask before they make the move.

    No. BurgerShop is your own branded store, not a marketplace. You own the storefront, the customer list, and the buying experience – buyers land on your brand, not a shared listing feed.

    You’re not replacing marketplace browsing – you’re keeping the traffic you already drive. Ads, social, SEO, and email land on a store you control and convert into repeat buyers instead of one-time clicks.

    Yes. Import or rebuild the products you want to keep selling, then set up personalization, payments, email, and fulfillment – with free migration help if you want it.

    BurgerPrints (BGP). Every order routes straight to BGP to print, pack, and ship – no manual order entry and no operations team to build. You keep the customer; they handle fulfillment.

    No. Live personalization, SmartSell upsells, email recovery, fulfillment, and store checks are part of one connected workflow – fewer add-ons and per-app fees to manage.

    Yes. You can start for free and build your store before committing.
