About this guide
This guide gives you everything you need to know to start selling, sharing, and celebrating your art with our community.
Art is Lit is your creative marketplace, a space where artists and art lovers connect.
Please take a moment to read through this guide before getting started so you can make the most of your experience.
Important Information
Commission and Fees
To help maintain and grow our platform, Art is Lit charges sellers a 10% commission on each completed sale. However, we’re currently running a limited-time offer — only 5% commission on all sales until March 2026!
Sellers are also responsible for transaction fees applied by their chosen payment provider (such as PayPal, Wise, or Stripe).
These are standard processing fees set by the payment services, not by Art is Lit.
We believe in transparency, you’ll always be able to view a full breakdown of commissions and fees directly in your vendor dashboard.
Withdrawal Schedule
To ensure smooth transactions and protect both artists and buyers, funds from completed sales are held for 30 days before they can be withdrawn.
This short holding period allows time to process any potential refunds or disputes that may arise.
After the 30-day period, you’ll be free to withdraw your earnings directly to your preferred payment account.
