Star Seller

[AtonHaton]

I have fulfilled all the requirements to become a Star Seller, but the badge has not appeared. What should I do?

First double check the amount of money you made in the 3 months. You need $300 of sales during that period, minus taxes, Etsy fees, and shipping cost (If you use Etsy shipping). There is a way to find that in shop manager, but I forget how. If you still think you qualify, request a call back under help center at bottom of shop.

Star seller is only awarded on the 1st of the month. Your next chance to qualify is 1st October

The badge does not "just appear".  It is programmed to show on the 1st day of every month.

It always helps to read what Etsy puts out there not only about when it happens but what "makes" it happen.  All 5 components must be met by the 1st day of the new month.

The badge surely does ‘just appear’ if you’ve met the qualifications as explained in the other posts… 

[Adorabilities]

But it doesn’t appear in the middle of the month.

[HazelsSewingSupplies]

@FeltOnTheFly  Did you not read the part about first day of the month.  It won't "just appear" before then.

@FeltOnTheFly  No the badge does not just appear.  It appears on the first of the month if the seller meets the qualifications. 

They also need to have completed full 3 months.  90 days

@PrimFun 

That’s pretty much what I said….

@AtonHaton: Star Seller is calculated and awarded only on the 1st of each month, and on that day it must have been more than 90 days since your first sale, then you need to have met the order quantity and volume requirements during the preceding three month period, and only then are the other metrics considered.

@AtonHaton 

badges are calculated on the 1st of the month, and that's when they are updated, or "appear" on the sellers shop page

was your 1st sale before 1st June?

No need to repeat what's already been said, but just wanted to say I love your work! Those vests/shirts are stunning, and your video is spot-on!

[AtonHaton]

Do you mean the vests and shirts that we sell in our store?
Thank you so much, it’s very nice to receive such high praise from a colleague!

[AtonHaton]

Thank you very much to everyone who responded.

Unfortunately, it turned out that I didn't notice that it's 3 months from the date of the first sale, not from the store opening date.
So, does that mean I will only receive it in November? (Since the first sale was on July 5, and if it's assigned only on the 1st of each month, it seems I won’t get anything in October).

1st November is when the 1st calculation for the badges will be done on your shop
