Artist Don't Sell! Absolute CON As an Artist it's a disgrace that Society 6 robs artists and takes more than half of your profit earnings. I had to increase the pricing of my prints so high just so I can get some benefit and earnings out of selling my work! I sold a print for £12 and I'm only recieving 49p... !!! It's a joke. This is because Society 6 has changed their policy so that artists must now pay a monthly fee to have just a small freedom to sell their own work. My advice - remove the middle man and sell your prints independently, don't rely on these online con artist art print sites, you also have no control of what the customer gets as in quality, I personally would want to see what my customers get and sign them personally. After my huge 49p clears up into my PayPal I will be deleting my account... Thanks for ripping me off Society 6 - More like society 666!! 👿

Don't Become a Seller Here I started becoming a seller on the site, but the site would run with major errors that recurred which hindered loading my pages or editing my items. I reached via email for help and the replies were kind, but they were never pointing to what was actually causing the problems and I never got them resolved. Additional measures I took on my own wouldn't help either, and with the service's help being unfortunately not in the least helpful, I just knew this wasn't a site I wanted to continue going with. Were anyone to ask me about the Society6 for selling their art or art goods, I would say 'not a good idea' and not recommend becoming a paid member.

Shady company Shady company. Misuses user's data and it's impossible to delete your account, zero control over your own information and non existent customer support. No one answers requests or get back to you, but they keep filling your email inbox with spam. Run away!!

Thumbs down for a broken marketplace As a seller paying $155.88 USD a year to list my art here, I would recommend new artists stay clear from this website, at least for now. Society6 has a completely broken search function, and newly added artworks have not been visible on the marketplace for at least the last 5 months. If you have any newly added works, I recommend searching for them on the Society6 marketplace by your username, title and specific tags to see if you can find yours, especially if you have been considering signing up for a plan. It will give you an indication of what customers are not seeing. Further, go to any main navigation link on Society6 (backpacks, totes, mugs etc), and check the "new & trending" filter which supposedly would give you newly added items. Take a screenshot of what you see, and check back 1 - 2 weeks later. Heck, check back a month later like I did. I guarantee you'll see the same exact things there, in the same order as they were in your old screenshot. For this alone I would give it a 1 star, as there is simply no point signing up for this platform if your newly added work does not have a sliver of a chance of being found, even with meticulous keyword and description planning. Support brushes this issue off, saying that artists need to promote their works more, or just says their marketplace is struggling with the introduction of the artist plans and their website may "take a few days" to update. I'd say over 120 days has been more than a few. The fact that their advertised "analytics" page for the pro plan only works half the time, and doesn't actually give you any analytics at all and just tells you how many works you have sold over the last 90 days (which is a stat you can see without the analytics feature) is just the icing on the 1 star cake. I hope Society6 improves their website & will change this review if they do, but for now I would recommend giving the artist plans a hard pass.

ARTISTS AVOID!!!! I have been contributing to Society6 since 2016, had over 130 designs, now they make artists pay just to be on the platform. All my designs were deleted except 10 :) How lovely! Do they realise how much time I spent adjusting all products for my artwork???????? Anyway I made 2 sales in past month, for the rug "Beautiful wave surfing on a sandy beach" that a Buyer paid $281 I got only £24, not even 10%. What a cruel platform, cold heartedly deleting designs forever. My own paintings and photos around the World. Please avoid, not a great experience at all.
