For merchants

How to list your shop

Six steps and nothing to pay to join. Everything we will ask for is on this page, before you start.

The steps

  1. Tell us about the business

    Name, where it is, what kind of shop it is and who we should talk to. Five minutes, from a phone.

  2. Send the documents

    Photographs are fine as long as the writing is readable. The list is below, and you can send them as you get them rather than all at once.

  3. We check them

    A person reviews what you sent. If something is missing or unreadable we say which one and why, rather than rejecting the application and leaving you to guess.

  4. Agree the terms

    Commission, delivery and when the money reaches you, in writing, before you sell anything.

  5. Put your list together

    Your items, their prices and a photograph each. You do this in the DERSA Merchant app, and you can change any of it later without asking anybody.

  6. Open

    Switch the shop from paused to open in the app. Orders start arriving, and you can pause again whenever you need to.

What to have ready

These six. There is nothing else we ask for.

Trade licence

Current, and showing the activity you are signing up to do.

TIN certificate

The taxpayer identification number the business trades under.

VAT registration, if you have one

Only if the business is VAT registered. If it is not, say so and that is the end of it.

An ID for the person signing

A national ID or passport for whoever signs on behalf of the business.

Bank account details

In the name of the business, with a photograph of the book or statement header. This is where your money goes, so it is the one we check hardest.

A photograph of the shop

The front, as a customer sees it. It is what appears on your listing.

How long it takes

With complete, readable documents the review takes a few working days. If something is missing we tell you which one; an application does not sit in silence.

There is nothing to pay to join. DERSA earns a commission on orders you sell, and you have that figure in writing before you sign.
