Soul Tribe Marketplace isn’t just an alternative to mass-market platforms — it’s a movement.
We’re here to lead a shift:
Collaboration over Competition
Quality over Quantity,
And a community that thrives by lifting each other up.
The Soul Tribe Marketplace isn’t just a place to list products — it’s a collaborative community of kindred creators. We believe in people over profits, quality over quantity, and passion over algorithms.
As a Soul Tribe vendor, you’ll receive:
✅ Startup support — guides, templates, and help getting your store set up
✅ Vendor features & highlights — we showcase our creators, not just bestsellers
✅ Private vendor group access — ask questions, share tips, and collaborate
✅ Curated community — no resellers, no mass-produced fluff — only the good stuff
✅ Intentional shoppers — conscious consumers who are actively seeking what you create

You’re not just selling — you’re joining a tribe.

Your tribe of like-minded small businesses
We help with promotions - no fees added
In today’s digital age, most online marketplaces are designed with a single mission: dominate the market, amass the masses, and rake in profit—usually at the expense of the very sellers who make the platform thrive. These marketplaces often favor mass production, lightning-fast turnover, and algorithms that prioritize their bottom line over your artistry.
But that’s not our vibe.
We aren’t just building a platform—we’re cultivating an ecosystem. A place where community is the currency, creativity is celebrated, and independent makers, healers, artists, and soul-driven brands are elevated side by side, not swallowed up by the noise of mass-produced junk.
Here’s what makes us beautifully, powerfully different:
Soul Tribe isn’t run by a faceless tech corporation. It was created by a small business owner (hi, that’s me!) who has been in your shoes—hauling displays to vendor markets, hustling for online visibility, and wishing there was a space that actually felt like home. Every detail is designed with that personal experience in mind. We don’t guess what you need—we know.
This is a collaborative marketplace, not a corporate machine. Our platform is designed to help you thrive alongside other like-minded vendors. That means:
Shared promotion opportunities
Supportive vendor community features
A culture of connection, not comparison
Unlike other platforms that eat away at your profit with endless fees, Soul Tribe Marketplace offers:
Simple subscription options
No sneaky listing fees
Lower commission rates for long-term vendors
More money in your pocket, where it belongs
Compare a $50 sale on Etsy (after listing fees, transaction fees, payment fees, and ad grabs) versus our streamlined model and the difference is clear. We’re here to support your business, not drain it.
We don’t let just anyone in—and that’s a good thing. Every vendor is handpicked, which keeps the quality high and the vibe cohesive. Customers know that when they shop Soul Tribe Marketplace, they’re supporting real artists and makers with heart, not resellers or knockoff factories.
This also means:
Less competition with mass-produced items
A more intentional shopping experience for buyers
Better visibility for your offerings
This isn’t a “list it and leave it” situation. Soul Tribe Marketplace is always evolving, with new features and support systems added based on vendor feedback.
Some of the perks and tools available (and growing!) include:
Custom storefronts made for you
Vendor education and marketing resources
Community events and features
Referral rewards
Local pickup & shipping vendor options
Service-based vendor profiles (massage, health coach, custom work)
Your voice matters here—and actually shapes the platform.
If your brand doesn’t quite fit in the mainstream—or you’re done trying to force it to—welcome home. Soul Tribe is a space where your handmade, magical, soulful, sustainable, intentional work isn’t just accepted—it’s honored.
Soul Tribe Marketplace isn’t just an online store. It’s a movement.
A place where art meets intention. Where connection outweighs competition. And where soul-led creatives come together not just to sell—but to rise.
Want to join the Tribe? You’re exactly who we built this for.
Vendor storefronts are designed with a clean, consistent layout to keep the marketplace cohesive and easy to browse. At this time, customization options are limited to standard HTML features such as text formatting, basic image galleries, and styling.
If you need a more enhanced layout or want to include additional content (like styled sections or gallery blocks), reach out to the SoulTribe admin team. We’re happy to chat about what’s possible and provide a custom quote based on your design needs.
Let’s create something that reflects your unique vibe
We welcome small businesses, artists, makers, bakers and service providers who align with our values of creativity, intention, and community over competition. If you’re offering handmade goods, home baked goodies, digital art, healing services, or anything soulful—this is your space.
Yes, but we keep it simple for you. Since storefront design is managed from our end, you’ll just send us a few key pieces:
Your brand story or bio
A banner graphic
Any product-specific details you’d like highlighted
✨ Bonus Tip: Want your profile photo or logo to automatically show up as your store logo on your vendor page and the main marketplace?
Create a free profile on Gravatar.com.
Use the same email address you’re signing up with for your store, and your logo (or selfie!) will automatically appear—no upload needed.
You don’t have to fill out all their info—just upload your image and you’re good to go!

Selling on Etsy can cost you up to 25% of each sale once they factor in listing fees, shipping cuts, payment processing, and offsite ad deductions. You never really know what you’ll take home.
Our model is radically different:
Etsy | Soul Tribe | |
---|---|---|
Listing Fees | $0.20 per product | None |
Platform Fees | 10–25% of sale (varies) | 10% or 15% (your choice) |
Shipping % Taken | ✅ Yes | ❌ Never |
Surprise Ads/Fees | ✅ Possible | ❌ Nope |
Monthly Cost | $0 (but you pay for everything else) | $10/$12/$15 |
Because we believe in a future shaped by small-batch makers, soulful businesses, and a return to what’s real — where every item is crafted with care, not cranked out by machines.
