DC Ship first Question

[Former_Member]

Etsy stated that they are rolling out the ability to have funds available before shipping the item. Does anyone know how we can tell if that is the case for our shops?

The last day I had a sale thru DC was the day that they started rolling out that change, and I dont have any idea if my shop is now allowed to get funds before shipping or not. This particular transaction still states shipment first, but that could be because it was done before the change took effect (like the three day hold change.)

Anyone know? Being a primarily custom shop, this will make a huge difference for me, and I'm just trying to get an idea of how long I may need to wait.

Thanks! :D

Hey, I remember reading the forum post and they said it may take a few weeks to get everyone's shop set up with this. And they said that we will have the blue banner notice when it affects our shop. I haven't gotten it yet; I have recent DC sales that I had to mail the item before getting payment. But I am hella excited for the change.
