How do I open a new Etsy shop at 18 if my old shop was under a parent?
AAnonymous
• • No answers yet I started an Etsy shop as a minor using a parent’s information, and now that I’m 18 I need to run my shop under my own account. Since Etsy doesn’t let you transfer a shop to a new owner, I’m considering opening a new shop and recreating my listings there.
Is it allowed to temporarily run two Etsy shops with the same or very similar listings while I transition, and what’s the safest way to move over without risking a suspension?
