Opening your VestaVids store
What it takes to open a store on VestaVids: signing up, verifying, setting up payment and credits, your first uploads, and linking your other pages.
What you are opening
A VestaVids store is a page where you sell your own original clips, photo sets and bundles directly to buyers. It is free to open. You set your prices, decide how you are paid, run your own sales, take custom requests if you want them, and keep ownership of everything you upload. VestaVids does not host third-party videos, so a store is only ever a creator's own work.
Before you sign up
Have ready:
- A store name and handle you will use consistently across platforms, so buyers can find you and watermarks make sense.
- An email address you control and will keep. You will need to verify it.
- Your payment links: accounts with processors that permit adult transactions, if you want to take direct payments. Check each processor's current rules yourself.
- Your age and identity records in order; see the records guide.
- At least two or three finished items. An empty store does not convert visitors.
The site has an 18+ gate. You must be an adult to open a store.
Setting up payment
You can be paid in two ways, and you choose which to accept.
Direct payment means buyers pay you through your own listed links. VestaVids takes nothing from those payments; the whole amount reaches you. You confirm the payment and release the item.
Credits mean buyers spend a balance they bought on VestaVids, and the item unlocks instantly. You cash out credits you have received at 75 cents per credit. Credits remove the confirmation step and make small purchases frictionless.
Many creators accept both and say on their profile which they prefer. Decide also whether messaging is free or requires credits per message; either is fine and you can change it later.
Your profile and first uploads
Write a short description of what you make and for whom. State plainly what you offer, whether you take customs and your limits, how you prefer to be paid, and roughly how often you release. A good profile does half the work of every listing.
Link your VestaCreate or Sanctum page if you have one; the two will point to each other. If you have a VestaModels profile, link your store from it. These are stable links that do not depend on a social platform.
Upload your two or three strongest items with careful titles, honest descriptions, good thumbnails and watermarked previews. Price them deliberately; the pricing guide covers how. Consider a small starter bundle. Then set a cadence and keep to it.
Reports on VestaVids are read by a person, so expect that listings which break the rules will be acted on. Keep your records, keep your originals, and keep your email verified and your login secure. Check your messages regularly, since custom requests and payment confirmations arrive there.
That is the whole setup. The store improves from here by what you put in it and how consistently you show up.
