What is the Star Seller Badge?
Etsy gives this badge to shops that consistently provide top-tier customer service. It shows up on your shop and listings, telling buyers that you’re reliable, responsive, and deliver high-quality products.
Why does it matter?
The Star Seller badge isn’t just a nice decoration—it helps you stand out, increases buyer trust, and can improve your search ranking. More visibility = more potential sales.
