Becoming a stallholder

Curated by Char – Market Terms & Conditions

By applying for or booking a stall with Curated by Char, you agree to the following terms and conditions.

1. Applications

All traders must complete the application form.
Submitting an application does not guarantee a space at the market.

Curated by Char carefully curates each market to ensure a varied mix of high quality handmade, independent and creative businesses. Applications are reviewed to maintain this balance.

Successful applicants will be contacted via email.

2. Products & Stall Allocation

Stalls are allocated at the discretion of the organiser to ensure a good variety of traders.

You may only sell the products that were listed and approved on your application form. Any additional products must be approved in advance. I reserve the right to refuse applications or remove traders whose products do not match what was originally approved.

The following products are not permitted at Curated by Char markets:

AI generated artwork or products created primarily using artificial intelligence.

Multi level marketing (MLM) businesses, including but not limited to companies such as The Body Shop At Home, FM Perfume, Avon, Scentsy, or similar direct sales brands.

Mass produced or wholesale products that are not designed or made by the trader themselves.

Curated by Char aims to support independent artists, makers, designers and small creative businesses.

Curated by Char reserves the right to refuse or remove any stall that does not comply with these guidelines.

3. Stall Fees, Payment & Cancellations

If your application is successful, you will receive an invoice via PayPal.

Your stall space is not confirmed until payment has been received.

All invoices must be paid in full by the due date stated on the invoice. Failure to pay by the due date may result in your stall being offered to another trader. If you no longer can make your stall, please let me know as soon as possible so that I can try to resell your stall. A refund will only be given if the stall is resold. Should you cancel within 14 days of the market date, you will not receive a refund.
