# Becoming a Vendor

To sell on Blocksmiths you need to apply for a vendor account. This keeps the marketplace trusted and high quality.

## Requirements

* A Blocksmiths account (sign up with email or wallet)
* A product or tool ready to sell
* A wallet address to receive payouts (EVM and/or Solana)

## How to Apply

1. Sign in to your account.
2. Navigate to **Become a Vendor** from the dashboard or navigation menu.
3. Fill in your vendor application:
   * Display name / store name
   * Short bio or description of what you sell
   * Payout wallet address(es)
4. Submit your application.

## Review Process

An admin reviews your application. You will be notified once a decision is made:

* **Approved** — your vendor dashboard is unlocked and you can start listing products immediately.
* **Rejected** — you will see the reason on your dashboard. You may address the issue and reapply.

## After Approval

Once approved you gain access to the **Vendor Dashboard** where you can:

* Create and manage product listings
* Track sales and revenue
* Manage payouts
* View customer orders for your products

## Payout Wallets

During your application (or from vendor settings after approval) you configure the wallet addresses where you want to receive payouts. You can set separate addresses for EVM chains and Solana.

Make sure to use addresses you fully control. Blocksmiths cannot reverse payouts sent to the wrong address.
