B2C marketplace for handmade crafts and gifts
Artovnia gives 70+ artists their own profile, catalogue, and order management system for selling arts & crafts.
About marketplace
Artovnia is a Polish marketplace for arts and crafts, where independent creators, small studios and artists run their own profiles, catalogues and orders. A page builder gives every seller a storefront they shape themselves, so the marketplace grows new shops without designing each one from scratch. Onboarding holds a seller behind four milestones, so only finished shops reach buyers.
Sellers trading on Shopify, WooCommerce, PrestaShop, Shoper, or BaseLinker keep those shops, and stock and orders stay in step across them. Every sync runs through a queue that holds encrypted credentials and retries failures, so one broken connection doesn't stall the others.
Compliance modules, like DAC7 seller income reporting, DSA, and Poland's BDO/EPR seller declarations, and the Omnibus Directive's 30-day lowest-price rule, run as dedicated, versioned modules.
Highlights
- Categories spanning home, accessories, fashion, kids, gifts, and beauty
- Custom loyalty program with points redeemable for discounts

About working on Mercur
We chose Mercur as an open-source starting point because it has no restrictions on what we could build. It gave us a solid marketplace foundation, so we didn't have to build multi-vendor logic and split payments from scratch. We had the freedom to rebuild and extend every part of it, from compliance to a custom integration hub, to fit the Polish market exactly as we needed.
