Why Creators Choose PayRequest

Everything you need to sell digital products, subscriptions, and more.

No 6.5% Marketplace Fee

Etsy takes 6.5% of every sale plus listing fees. PayRequest has 0% platform fees - keep more of your earnings.

Your Own Branded Store

Build your brand instead of being lost in a marketplace. Your store, your customers, your data.

20+ Payment Methods

Accept iDEAL, SEPA, Bancontact, cards, and more. Etsy limits you to their payment system.

Own Your Customer Data

Build direct relationships with customers. On Etsy, they're Etsy's customers, not yours.

EU-Based & GDPR Ready

Based in the Netherlands with full GDPR compliance. Better for European sellers.

Subscriptions & Memberships

Sell recurring products like template clubs or membership access. Etsy doesn't support subscriptions.
