Before you start

An account and original work you have the right to publish.

Production-ready files and accurate images for your first listing.

What you will be able to do

Enable Creator without a Maker or Supplier application.

Open your creator workspace and complete a private draft.

Keep royalties, buyer price, publication, and verification distinct.

Step by step

Step 1: Create your account

Open Create account. Enter Email, Password, and First name. Use at least eight characters with uppercase, lowercase, a number, and a symbol, then choose Create account. If you already have an account, use Log in instead.

Create account →

Check: You see either the confirmation-email message or role onboarding; do not create a second account to add another role.

The public account form. One account can later hold multiple roles. Actual site capture · 2026-10-18 · Source screen · Select image to enlarge

Step 2: Confirm your email when prompted

Use the confirmation link sent to the address you entered. Return to Goodiee and sign in if needed. A saved signup intent suggests a role; it does not approve a maker or supplier application.

Check: You can reach your dashboard or the role onboarding screen with your own account.

Step 3: Enable Creator

Open Settings → Roles, select Share designs / Creator, keep Buyer selected, and save your role choices. Maker and Supplier use separate applications; do not select them as a substitute for Creator.

Check: Your account can open creator listings.

Step 4: Build a recognizable profile

Complete your display name, @username, bio, and About information. Add your profile and cover images, choose your appearance, and review the public preview before sharing your profile.

Check: Your public profile identifies your work and its saved links open correctly.

Step 5: Prepare the production package

Use Learn to check the file format, dimensions, scale, supported process, materials, and manufacturing instructions. A buyer image or mockup is not a replacement for the file the maker will manufacture.

Check: The production file and the promised physical result agree.

Step 6: Open My listings and start one goodie

Use Create a goodie to open a private draft. The current new-listing flow starts a Goodie product draft; do not assume it opens a separate design-type chooser. Follow the full listing manual to complete each editor section.

Check: You are in your draft editor, not a public marketplace listing.

Step 7: Set earnings and inspect the buyer preview

Enter your intended earnings per unit and read the estimated buyer price shown by the editor. Check the title, options, images, and manufacturing details together. Estimated prices are not a payout guarantee.

Check: The saved draft and buyer preview describe the same goodie.

Step 8: Publish the goodie and handle proof review separately

Use Review and Publish goodie when the listing is complete. The current creator flow validates and publishes a complete goodie directly. Read its resulting status and handle proof-of-work review separately; supplier items use a different submission process.

Check: My listings shows the result actually recorded by the site.

Step 9: Scale carefully with CSV

Once one listing is correct, use the creator CSV importer for additional drafts. It does not upload production files or publish the rows automatically; each imported draft still needs its files, images, and final review.
