Calling All Crafters!
Craftsuprint Crafters can upload finished photographs of their work to the craftsuprint website and earn CASH commissions just for showcasing their work.
Gold & Shooting Stars
To earn commissions from your photos you will need to reserve gold or shooting stars. When you are placing your order if you see a Gold or Shooting Star to the right of the description text you can reserve these directly after purchase by logging in to Crafter Control Panel. Remember to reserve your stars quickly as other crafters may be trying to reserve the same stars at the same time as you and only one gold and one shooting star is available per product, whoever reserves the stars first gets the right to upload their photos and earn a commission . Once you have reserved your star you have 2 weeks to make your card and upload the finished card photograph. Those lucky enough to claim the gold and shooting stars will earn a commission every time the design their photo is supporting is sold. You are not selling the card itself you are getting paid a sales commission for helping to promote the items being sold by using your finished card photograph as a marketing tool.
If the craft sheet/craft pattern/craft project sells 100 times you get 100 lots of commission. Commission payments start the minute your photo is uploaded and becomes live on the site, so it helps that you upload your project photos quickly. This unique feature is not available on any other website and is a great way to earn money from your hobby.
Crafter Commission Structure
Crafters are paid according to the scale below. Crafters commissions increase per sale the more finished card photographs they upload on to the website.
| 0 to 10 Photos | New Crafter | 2p per sale |
| 11 to 100 Photos | Bronze Crafter | 3p per sale |
| 101 to 500 Photos | Silver Crafter | 4p per sale |
| 501 to 2000 Photos | Gold Crafter | 5p per sale |
| 2001 to 10,000 Photos | Platinum Crafter | 6p per sale |
| 10,000 plus Photos | Titanium Crafter | 7p per sale |
It is so simple - you buy the design - your reserve the star - you make the card - you upload a photograph of the finished card - you earn commission every time that design sells.
What a great way to earn money for doing something that you love!
Gold Stars
Gold Stars show when a download first appears on the website, they can be the hardest to get especially if the download is by one of our top 'high selling' designers. Use the 'Coming Soon' facility in your Crafter Control Panel to see when the latest gold stars are going to appear live on the site.
Shooting Stars
Shooting stars look slightly different to Gold Stars as they have a tail. They will appear on the site randomly within 7 days of the Gold Star being reserved. This means that customers will get two bites at claiming a star. If they miss out on the Gold Star then they may be lucky enough to be in the right place at the right time when the shooting star appears.
This random feature means that no one will be able to predict when the shooting star will appear on the site. This means that more customers will be able to claim more stars and they will be shared out more evenly. Customers who have reserved the Gold Star for a design will not be able to reserve the shooting star for the same design. We hope that the new "Shooting Stars" feature will help to ease the frustrations suffered by some crafters who often just 'miss out' on claiming a Gold Star.
You cannot lay claim to a Shooting Star until the Shooting Star is displayed on the website. If you have purchased the item before the Shooting Star is displayed then unfortunately you cannot claim the Shooting Star with this purchase. In other words you cannot claim for Shooting Stars on past purchases. If you choose to purchase the item for a second time a refund for the first purchase will not be offered. To refund a legitimate sale would not be fair on the Designer and would also call into question the transparency of the website.
Two finished cards can now be displayed underneath the design sheet, the Gold Star photo will appear first and then the Shooting Star photo. Commissions are exactly the same for Gold Stars and Shooting Stars.
No Stars
If you don't reserve any Stars you can still upload and display your work but you won't receive any commissions on sales. To upload finished card photos to your Craftsuprint Gallery simply upload a .jpg photo via your Crafter Control Panel. Once the photo is live you can share it with your friends on Facebook or Pin it to your Pinterest wall.
