Sell on Pinterest
with 0% commission

No. Pinterest Shopping requires catalog approval, a connected merchant data source, and compliance with Pinterest’s merchant guidelines — and it still doesn’t support digital products in most cases. Creators selling printables, patterns, presets, templates, or courses link an external storefront from their profile instead. With Sellfy, you get 0% transaction fees, you own every buyer’s email, and your store works without a Pinterest Business account.

Yes. Every Pin has a destination URL field. Add the specific Sellfy product page URL, not just your store homepage. A Pin for your printable planner links directly to that planner’s checkout. A Pin for your preset pack lands on that product. Buyers skip the browse step and arrive at the right product ready to buy.

Products with high visual appeal and a clear use case: printable planners and calendars, crochet and sewing patterns, Lightroom presets, Canva templates, recipe ebooks, art prints, educational PDFs, and craft patterns. These categories generate high save rates, which extends the life of every Pin. A well-photographed product Pin in these categories can drive sales for 18+ months after you post it

Go to your Pinterest profile, click Edit profile, and add your Sellfy store URL (yourname.sellfy.store or a custom domain) in the Website field. Use a custom domain if you have one — it keeps your URL stable and adds a second Google-indexed surface alongside your Pins. Then add specific product page URLs as destination links on individual Pins. Each Pin serves as a direct entry point to that product.

Etsy has a direct Pinterest Shopping integration and brings built-in search traffic. But Etsy charges 6.5% per transaction plus $0.20/listing. On $10K/yr in printable sales, that’s over $650 in fees before payment processing. Etsy also keeps your customer data; you don’t get buyer email addresses after a sale. Sellfy charges 0%, gives you every buyer’s email, and your store indexes on Google under your own domain. Many Pinterest creators run both: Etsy for new buyer discovery, Sellfy for repeat buyers, and digital products. Etsy handles digital products poorly.

Yes. All Sellfy plans include discount codes, a percentage or a fixed amount, single-use or reusable, with optional expiry dates. Pinterest is heavily seasonal: planning content peaks in October for Christmas, early January for New Year’s, and mid-January for Valentine’s Day. Create a time-limited code, pin it with a seasonal product image, and the Pin drives traffic for the whole season. Seasonal Pins resurface every year and a Christmas planner Pin from two years ago still gets clicks every November.

Your Sellfy product page link stays the same unless you change it. If you update a product (new file version, new pricing, better images) the existing Pin still links to the right page. Buyers who click a two-year-old Pin get the current version of what you’re selling. This is why a custom domain matters: it keeps your URLs stable regardless of plan changes, so old Pins continue to work without any maintenance.

To connect the dots, add UTM parameters to your Pin destination URLs (e.g. ?utm_source=pinterest&utm_medium=pin), then view traffic sources in Sellfy or Google Analytics connected to your Sellfy store. Pinterest Analytics (free with a Business account) shows outbound clicks by Pin as well.
