CREATORS & VENDORS / YOUR STARTING GUIDE
BUILD YOUR SHOP.
Create your free marketplace account, set up your virtual shop in Spots, and add your products. When your space is ready, tell us—we’ll add it to the SGNL Chopping Mall.
SET UP YOUR SHOP IN THREE STEPS
1SET UP YOUR FREE MARKETPLACE ACCOUNT
Your free Sharetribe account is where you manage product listings, orders, and payments.
Open the signup page and choose Provider under User type.
The marketplace account is separate from the Discord/Spots experience below.
Enter your email, first and last name, display name, and password. Accept the terms and select Sign up.
Check your inbox, click Verify email, and return to sign in.
2SET UP YOUR VIRTUAL SPACE
Spots is the interactive side of the SGNL Chopping Mall, powered by Discord. ALKMY has a dedicated guide to help you launch Spots and request vendor access.
Open ALKMY's Claim Your Spot guide and choose Launch Spots to begin in Discord.
In Spots, open Settings → Info and find your Spots User ID.
Return to ALKMY and select Apply for a Vendor Account. Follow their instructions to get access to your own space.
Customize your virtual shop with your name, branding, and creative work. Take your time—you can refine the space before asking us to add it to the mall.
TWO PARTS, ONE SHOP
Sharetribe manages your products and payments. Spots is your interactive virtual storefront. After you finish your space, SGNL adds it to the mall.
