Open your Vyete shop in under an hour
Most shop owners on Vyete are live within 60 minutes. The ones who take longer are usually rewriting their product descriptions or hunting for a better logo — both of which you can do after you publish.
Here is the exact sequence to follow.
Step 1: Create your account
Go to shop.vyete.com and click "Open your shop". You need your email address, a shop name, and a password. That is it for the account itself.
Pick a shop name that matches what customers already call you — your Instagram handle, your sign above the door, whatever people search for when they look you up.
Step 2: Fill in your profile
Your profile is the first thing a customer sees. It does not need to be perfect, but it needs to be complete. Add:
- A logo or a clean photo of your storefront
- A short description — two or three sentences about what you sell and who your customers are
- Your physical address and opening hours (set these per day so the open/closed status is accurate)
- Two or three categories that describe your shop
Customers trust a complete profile over an impressive one. If your hours are wrong or your location is missing, you lose sales before anyone looks at a product.
Step 3: Add your first products
Start with your five best sellers. For each one, you need a title, a price, at least one photo, and a short description. If the product comes in sizes or colours, add those as variants and give each variant its own stock count.
Do not try to upload your entire catalogue before going live. Getting your top sellers published quickly is more valuable than spending two weeks building the perfect product list that nobody can find yet.
Step 4: Publish and share
Once your profile and at least one product are live, your shop is discoverable by anyone on Vyete. Copy your shop URL and share it — put it in your Instagram bio, send it to your regulars on WhatsApp, print it on your receipts.
You can add products, adjust your hours, and improve your profile any time after you go live. The first version just needs to exist.
