Christian By Faith Marketplace is a product and service directory (for outside website links) and promotional members' club. We offer independent product or service listing and blogging/writing opportunities from the technical side through our independent seller/member dashboard, but also customized marketing and promotion opportunities.

The link for choosing and signing up for one of our membership plans is https://christianbyfaith.store/collections/membership-plans. (After that, please go and sign up for our member dashboard independently here.)

Sign up and get access to the membership area/dashboard here (after buying a membership plan here in the store).

After choosing a membership plan and signing up for the membership area/dashboard, accessing the permanent link for everyday login will be here.

On your member/seller dashboard, you can do the following things:

1) Add product and service listings (that redirect to your own, outside, links)

2) Write and publish writings/blog posts/your own content marketing that will appear on your own blog page. (Note - Not automatically in our own, main, blog.)

3) Get and check notifications from us (the marketplace and the admins) regarding technical updates, changes, inside news, and etc.

4) Change/upgrade/downgrade, or end your membership plan at any moment.

To access additional promotional opportunities and features outside of the free membership plan, you can choose a paid plan here at https://christianbyfaith.store/collections/membership-plans. After that, we will be in contact with you (or you can freely contact us through e-mail at members@christianbyfaith.store) to work with you on your additional perks and promotional opportunities that are included in your chosen plan.

(* Please note that many of the paid plan features will be custom-crafted specifically for you, so we highly recommend checking the e-mail address that you gave us during signup to make sure you're not missing any of your membership plan features and options.)

Yes, even when being on the free plan, you will automatically get published on the (public) Directory/All Members page. To opt out of it, you need to write to members@christianbyfaith.store and let us know that you would like to opt out of that. Otherwise, you agree to it by default and stay named on that page as showing and promoting our members is part of our core concept.

The story of Christian By Faith Marketplace started in the beginning of 2024 when a more traditional, online, store was started. Later down the line, God had even better plans, so in 2025, the idea of upgrading and pivoting it into a unique, mixed, idea of a product and service directory and a members' club started to happen. Fast forward to now - the membership and selling side of the website is finally launching in March 2026! Come and join us! :)

Any female who aligns with the platform, it's mission, and has products that
also align with that.

No. Entrepreneur is a wide term.. everyone with a product are welcomed - including authors and artists.

Yes, absolutely. All books, devotionals, paintings, ceramics, jewelry, and etc, are welcomed on our site.

This product and service directory and members' club is meant for all women - both individuals AND women-led businesses. You can use or create both a seller name and/or a shop and/or a brand name. It is fully your own decision. (Also, legally it is also your own decision if you want to operate here as an individual or a company. Both options are fully allowed here. This is just a platform for promotion and listing - the actual selling happens on outside websites and platforms.)

Yes, absolutely. Both, individuals and businesses, can join this marketplace.

Faith-led and/or faith-based physical or digital products, and services can be listed here- anything that aligns with the platform and it's mission. Not all products have to be religion- or faith-related, they should just be neutral enough. Feel
free to contact us in case of any questions surrounding this topic.

(For more specifics, please refer to the next question and answer.)

There are no specific rules or limitations (except for aligning with the platform direction, mission and views in general), but the main products that we are looking for are digital journals; different digital files like prayer cards or printable calendars; Bibles, devotional journals; books, paper-back devotionals, art; (new) clothing and apparel; sportswear, jewelry (e.g. bracelets and necklaces); other accessories; art, paintings, ceramics; and other crafts and designs, christian clothing and apparel, and etc.

Yes, absolutely! Services can be listed here as well. Just add your service description and your own (outside) website link for selling/more information.

Yes, as long as you have an outside website or a link to redirect to, you can also promote and list your services.

All kinds of services can be linked and listed here as long as they don't go against our core values that align with the Christian faith. Good examples of service listings are coaching, counseling, design, bookkeeping and beauty services, but the potential list is much longer. We are excited to see what everyone are doing and offering, so list your services boldly! :)

No, absolutely not. We very much welcome new product and service categories and new type of products and services in general. It could maybe even be said that the more "out of box" or surprising, the better.

Yes, absolutely. Products that are listed here can be both digital and physical

No, not directly or not necessarily. They should just be at least neutral enough to suit next to the other products and not be controversial – that's all.

At least for now, this marketplace is not built for building courses (e.g. by coaches or mentors), and/or for adding social media content or longer video content. Everything else is technically welcomed here.

We leave that definition and line mostly to you and mostly check the alignment of products with this marketplace and also what other people are selling. The products just have to be neutral enough. In terms of the background of the seller, we don't ask specifically about that or make you fill out an application before joining as a seller - we just show what we are about here and then leave that decision up to you. If you feel comfortable enough to join then that is good for us as long as the products are suitable. We fully welcome you and cheer you on! (We do pre-check and pre-approve product listings though!)

No, not at all. You just have to insert either your own name or your preferred shop name, location, e-mail and preferred payment option for the future (but you can opt out anytime) and browse your account a bit in order to get it going before adding product listings. We only ask a very minimal amount of information when someone is signing up and we promise that navigating the sign-up process is not too difficult or time-consuming. :)

Also, always feel free to send us any questions about it via e-mail at members@christianbyfaith.store or book a discovery call so we can go through the process with you.

After joining us by choosing a
suitable Membership Plan here,
log in to your seller and member dashboard here.
Got to the "MY LISTINGS" section of the menu, and the
choose "ADDING PRODUCT AND SERVICE LISTINGS". Then on the
right top corner, you will see a pink button that says "Add a
listing". For further assistance you can contact us at
members@christianbyfaith.store, or check out our tutorial videos.
Adding a listing is fast and easy, we promise! We have kept is as
fast and simple as possible for our members so that everyone could
get to promoting their listings fast. :)

When adding a product listing, the following elements are mandatory:

* Product type (under "CHOOSE TYPE") - is your product physical or digital.

* Product name - Name your products whatever you like.

* Product type - There you will add whatever category you would name it - e.g. when you do necklaces or bracelets, then write that or a more general name like "jewelry".

* Description - There you will describe your product, what it includes, how big it is or how many pages it has and etc.

* Product tags - These are freely chosen words or tags to describe your product in one word. You can choose one tag or more.

* Product price - Choose the final product price (which already would include your taxes) without the shipping cost, or a full price with shipping if you want to offer free shipping to your customers and want to indirectly pay for it yourself as a seller.

* Product image - Choose at least one nice product image to showcase your product.

* Shipping details: Is shipping required (- add a check-mark if it's a physical product).

When adding a product listing, the following elements are voluntary:

* Brand name.

* Product weight (under "Shipping Details").

* Sales price, if you want the client price be different from the initial cost price.

* Whether you want to charge your own taxes from that product. - That is an individual decision that a seller has to make based on their country of residence or business. (Christian By Faith Marketplace doesn't collect or assign it's own taxes for or to sellers. Each seller is responsible for their own taxes.)

* Inventory details - Do you want to set minimum purchase amounts or show/track your product inventory publicly (e.g. when you only have a few copies of your book or apparel and want to block bigger purchases).

* Shipping details - How much does the physical product weight. (Not mandatory, but recommended. Or if not weighted the write about the size of the product inside the product description section.)

* Variant details - If you have several different variants of your product then you can add additional information about it.

* The origin country of the product - Where was the product made.

* An HSN product code for your own accounting or tracking. Totally voluntary.

* Choosing a collection, or several, for your product. - If you see a suitable option there, then choose it, but if not then you can leave it empty.

* Product handles.

Yes, absolutely. You can change and/or delete your product and service listings independently whenever you'd like.

No, there isn't a minimum price for product listings, so you can also add your free listings here.

No. To ensure the quality and uniqueness of this platform, the platform and the admin(s) check over every product and service listing before letting it go up. (Usually accepting the listing takes under 48 hours during work days, unless we have put up a notification that it would take longer.)

That depends on the timing, but usually within 24 hours during the work week, and within 48+ hours during the weekends unless we have put up a notification that it would take longer. (Accepting listings takes longer or is paused on weekends.)

Yes, absolutely. This doesn't mean that you are not welcomed to continue on the platform. We are absolutely looking forward to your next (different) listings.

To add your blog posts or writings, please log into your seller/member dashboard at HERE (after purchasing one of the membership plans). Then in the menu, go to "My profile" and choose "Seller/member blog". On the right corner, you will see a button saying "Add a blog". Click on it and start writing or adding. The mandatory parts are the headline and the description/writing part. Adding an image is voluntary. We recommend adding either product pictures or symbolic, illustrative pictures, to accompany your posts. (We do not recommend using your own pictures, e.g. profile pictures, as the blog post's main image because the size will fit the original size of the image and get very large.)

We highly recommended playing around and testing what images fit your blog posts the best, but in terms of the size, the image will show in the original size, so therefor we do not recommend your profile picture, logo, or picture of your face for the blog post image. We would suggest trying out your product pictures, or looking for something symbolic online from fee image banks/sites. Please make sure your images are either your own or labeled under "Common Use" or "Commercial Use". (You can use that filter on Google as well.)

That depends on the timing, but blog posts will usually get accepted and published by the admin within 24 hours during the work week, and within 48+ hours during the weekends. (Longer on some weekends.)

Christian By Faith Marketplace does NOT guarantee any sales or customers. Yes,
we do occasional promotion for our sellers, but outside of that, this marketplace is only meant to serve you as an additional place to share your products and God-given gifts. Daily promotion is voluntary and is totally up to the seller herself.

When the marketplace grows, we all will get more traffic and views in an overall sense, which can then also potentially lead to sales for other sellers as well. This, however, does not indicate the exact number of views that other sellers will get from someone else's audience. That process is totally fluent and is up to the customers.

No, Christian By Faith Marketplace isn't a direct marketplace, but works similarly to directories. That means that no selling actually happens on this website outside of our own brand products. Everything else is directed to the seller's own links where the actual selling happens. We therefor don't receive any money from outside products, and don't therefor do any transfers for members and sellers.

Yes, the marketplace reserves the right to deactivate/or delete sellers when they go against community guidelines.

Yes, this marketplace directory reserves the right to not accept, or deactivate/or
delete product and service listings when they go against our community guidelines and/or values and/or principles. Maintaining that standard is one of our core values.

As no selling outside of our own brand products happens here, each seller/member is responsible for their own products and services fully.

Christian By Faith Marketplace does not take responsibility for products and shipping or the lack of it.

As this is a directory and a members' club and no direct selling outside of our own brand products happens here, each seller is responsible for her gathering and presenting their own taxes (based on the actual selling that happens at those outside, redirected, links, on seller's own website).

Christian By Faith Marketplace has no connection to any of the taxes or tax forms outside of our own brand products! We works as a technical middle-(wo)man.

In terms of both customer purchase processing and membership subscription processing, this website and marketplace uses PayPal and Stripe (www.stripe.com).

You can become a member/seller from anywhere. Location doesn't matter. As this platform works on the principle of redirecting to outside links, we welcome everyone! :)

Yes, as this is a product and service directory, not a direct marketplace (regardless of our name), you need to either have your own (outside) website, or sell on an outside direct marketplace (e.g. Amazon, Etsy, Ebay, etc). You can't directly sell here without any links to refer the listing to.

Yes, absolutely. This is actually a prerequisite in order to list any of your products or services here. We are a directory (and a members' club), regardless of our name (marketplace).

The core pillars of our platform are:

• being God-focused and God-led;
  
• having faith as the core of the marketplace and platform;
  
• being community-driven and community-focused;
  
• offering a personalized experienced;
  
• offering individual tech and customer support;
  
• facilitating and nurturing a unique set of sellers and members;
  
• offering a unique variety of product and service listings;
  
• supporting each other through the community;
  
• helping each seller and member shine;
  
• uplifting our members through promotion, feature articles, and etc.
  

Some of the examples of this (but not conclusive) is:

• A different type of exposure for yourself as a Christian entrepreneur and for your products;
  
• An option to shine among like-minded women who most likely support the same type of business approach as you do;
  
• An opportunity to stand out as a seller compared to larger marketplaces where we as Christian women are often just a number in the statistics and sometimes might even be pushed to conform to be allowed to share our products in those secular places.
