Seller Guide

Quick setup, listing tips, shipping, payouts, and support — all in one place.

1) Get set up

  1. Create your seller account and complete your profile
  2. Connect PayPal (required for payouts)
  3. Add your first listings and publish

2) Listing checklist

  • Photos: clear, well-lit images (simple background works best)
  • Title: pattern + size + key feature (ex: “BWO Nymph — Size 18 — Tungsten”)
  • Details: materials used, fly size, pattern name
  • Use cases: water type and/or species it’s typically used for
  • Accuracy: describe exactly what the buyer will receive

3) Shipping orders

  • Ship within 1–3 business days whenever possible
  • USPS First Class / Ground Advantage is most common
  • Tracking is encouraged but not required
  • After shipping, mark the order as Fulfilled in your seller dashboard

4) Getting paid (PayPal)

Payouts are processed through PayPal. You must connect PayPal to receive earnings.

  • Earnings are released automatically a few days after orders are marked Fulfilled
  • Tracking is not required for payment release
  • If a refund or order issue is opened, payment may pause until it’s resolved
Why PayPal? Fast, secure payouts without sharing sensitive banking details with Flashy Flies. You can review or manage authorizations from your PayPal account at any time.

5) Problems & order issues

  • If you’re delayed, message the buyer as soon as possible
  • If something ships wrong or arrives damaged, contact support and we’ll help resolve it
  • Keep communication respectful and clear
