If you plan to manage multiple Etsy shops, follow these guidelines:

Etsy prohibits duplicate shops. You may not list the same items in different shops.Etsy considers this to be the same shop.

For each shop you open on Etsy, you must create a new account with a different email address.

You may operate an unlimited number of Etsy Stores as long as you comply with Etsy's Seller Policies and Terms of Use.

You can use the same bank account and the same credit card information for your second Etsy shop.

Don't forget to include the names of both shops in your Etsy profile.
You must list the names of all other shops in your account profile to avoid duplication. For example, you could say, "My other shop is,"

What you can do after opening your second shop

1. You sell a variety of items.

If you manufacture and sell a variety of products, then having only one shop may not be enough. In this case, it makes sense to open a second shop. Doing so will allow you to organise the shop and simplify the search experience for your customers.

2. The products you sell have specific terms of use.

If you sell items that belong to a different Etsy category, you'll need to open a second shop.
If you sell vintage and handmade items, you will need to create two different shops.
Why? Because each Etsy category has specific terms of use that you must agree to before you can post an item.
Creating separate shops for each product category ensures that you're complying with Etsy's rules and regulations.

3. You offer both physical and digital products.

If you sell both digital and physical products, it can be helpful to create two shops. Physical products have shipping requirements, while digital products do not (you cannot ship digital products).
If you sell digital items (such as printable art walls), you can offer buyers an instant download. The buyer can download and receive the product immediately after payment. Meanwhile, if you sell physical goods (mugs, t-shirts, etc.), you will need to package and ship the goods to the customer.

4. You want to target different audiences.

If you sell a wide variety of products, it makes sense to open a second shop for different target audiences.
Running a separate shop allows you to implement more targeted advertising and marketing strategies. It also makes it easier to find your items on Etsy.
Creating different shops also allows you to customise the look and feel of each shop to appeal to a specific audience.
