Indie Art Africa - Editor's Choice
An Online Platform Created to Showcase and Sell the Artwork of Local Artists in South Africa.
Indie Art Africa is an online art marketplace aimed at creating jobs for local artists in South Africa. Artists, schools, galleries or third party sellers can register as vendors and upload their own artworks to sell online. Each vendor is giving a store page they can make their own and link to their social media and share their details. Indie Art Africa does not deliver or deal in taxes, we are purely a platform allowing artists to sell their work in a world where so many unknown artists go undiscovered.
There is no sign up fee, or fees associated to uploading various artworks. We make a flat 10% Commission on sales, with this model in mind it is our best interest for artists to sell their work. Money is never paid from customer to vendor, Money is deposited into Indie Art Africa's business account and can only be withdrawn from the account by the artist upon successful delivery of the artwork, that way, artists know the money is in the bank and customers have the reassurance that the vendor will not run away with their money. You do not need to be a South African citizen or proof of residence to sign on, only have a bank account from which we can send funds. In an age where people are hesitant to give away information but also know that connectivity is key in a modern world, people can sign in with their LinkedIn or Facebook accounts.
