Selling your artworks directly
Take payment directly into your own account, with 0% MycreArt commission. MycreArt prepares the payment link and the documents that travel with the work.
The sale is yours, end to end
Selling directly means keeping control of the price, the relationship and the record of every sale.
0% MycreArt commission
MycreArt takes no commission on the sale price. You connect your own Stripe account: only standard card fees apply.
The relationship stays yours
You know your buyer, you can reach out again and show them other works. No third party stands between you and them.
A traceable sale
Each sale is recorded with its artwork, amount, buyer and date. You keep the full history, ready to show if anyone asks.
MycreArt never holds the funds: payments arrive in your Stripe account, then in your bank account.
From payment to documents
Once your payment account is connected, every step of the sale is taken care of.
Shareable payment link
Generate a payment link for a work, share it by message, email or QR code at an exhibition. The buyer pays by card in a few clicks.
Card payment (Stripe)
You connect your own Stripe account in a few minutes (ID document + IBAN). Payments arrive directly in your account, never in MycreArt's.
Invoice, receipt and certificate
After payment, you can issue a compliant invoice with MycreArt or create a non-tax receipt. The issued document can be attached with the certificate under your settings.
Buyer directory
Each buyer is kept in a directory, with their purchase history. Enough to reach out at the right moment, without starting from scratch.
Collect wherever the sale closes
Opening, fair, studio or private message: the sale is recorded, whatever the payment method.
Remotely, by link or QR code
Send the payment link by message or email, or display the artwork's QR code. The buyer pays by card and the sale is attached to the work right away.
On the spot, during an exhibition
At an opening or a fair, the buyer scans the label's QR code and pays from their phone. The sale is recorded before they even leave with the work.
Other payment methods
Cash, bank transfer, cheque or card on a terminal: record the sale with the method used to keep a consistent trail, even outside online payment.
A status at every step
Each sale carries a clear status, from reservation to payment collected. You see at a glance what is finalized and what still needs confirming.

What artists ask
You share the link by email, message, via a QR code printed on an exhibition label, or directly from the artwork's public page. The buyer clicks and pays by card.
There is 0% MycreArt commission. For online card payments, Stripe applies its own fees according to its current pricing; the amount depends on the card type and the buyer's country.
Once the payment is collected, Stripe transfers the funds to your bank account within a few business days. The timing is set by Stripe based on your history and country, usually between 2 and 7 days; the first payout is often a little longer. You track your payouts from your Stripe dashboard.
Yes. A sale paid through MycreArt generates an invoice if you have a SIRET and the buyer is in France, a receipt otherwise. If you've turned on automatic sending, the document goes to the buyer by email, with the certificate attached when a valid certificate already exists. Invoices use the Factur-X format.
Yes. You can record a sale paid in cash, by bank transfer, by cheque or by card on a terminal, without going through Stripe. The Stripe account is only needed for online card payments (link and QR code).
For a card payment, the refund is triggered from your Stripe dashboard; MycreArt then updates the sale status. The payment record, the invoice and the certificate stay available to document the operation.
Yes. Each buyer is kept in your directory with their purchase history. You can attach them to a new sale without re-entering their details, and reach out when you present new works.
No. A payment link or a QR code is enough to collect, wherever you are. The Pro Site adds a showcase where your works become buyable online, but direct sales work without it too.
Yes — record the sale with "cash" as the payment method to keep the record. Mind the legal ceiling in France: a buyer who is a French tax resident cannot pay a professional more than €1,000 in cash; above that, use card, transfer or cheque. For a non-professional buyer residing abroad, the ceiling rises to €10,000, with proof of residence.
Yes. Record the sale as pending — at a private view, for example, when the buyer reserves the work — then attach a payment link to it. When they pay, the payment updates the sale by itself: paid status, documents ready, nothing to re-enter.
