– Wadiz Store opens its doors to both new brands (less than 3 years old) and established brands… Brands can join the store regardless of funding status
– “0% Listing Fee” promotion for new makers running through the end of this year
– From new product launches to customer feedback, communication, and marketing support: “Providing the infrastructure early-stage entrepreneurs need”
The Wadiz Store is opening its doors wide to both emerging and established brands looking to expand into new distribution channels.
Wadizannounced on the 19th that it is expanding the eligibility criteria for joining the Wadiz to provide more brands with opportunities to take on new challenges and grow together.
The Wadiz Store, Wadize-commerce service launched in September 2021, previously sold only products that had successfully completed their funding campaigns. In response to consistent requests from emerging brands over the past three years, Wadizhas decided to expand the range of brands eligible to join the store.
According to a survey conducted by Wadiz in July and August among brands listed on the Wadiz Store, 80% of respondents answered “yes” when asked if they would recommend the Wadiz Store service. When asked why they would recommend it, they cited the following reasons: △ effective promotion during new product launches, △ proactive customer feedback, △ marketing tools optimized for early-stage businesses, and △ reasonable listing fees.
With this change, new brands that are less than three years old and looking for new distribution channels, as well as brands with high customer satisfaction ratings, positive reviews, and a following of at least 10,000 fans, are now eligible to join the Wadiz Store.
We expect that this will enable more brands to leverage Wadizrobust communication features between makers and supporters to attract new customers and build a brand following.
For example, any Wadiz maker can use their “Maker Page” to share their brand story and keep followers updated on the latest news. Notifications about a maker’s new store listings are automatically sent to their followers. Additionally, makers can use the “Survey” feature on their Maker Page to gather customer feedback, such as gauging pre-release demand and preferences for upcoming products.
Meanwhile, Wadizis offering a “0% listing fee promotion” to new brands joining the store through the end of this year. The promotion provides three months of free listing starting from the date of store approval and includes marketing support, such as participation in store-wide promotional events.

Park Young-min, Director of the Wadiz Store, said, “The strength of Wadiz lies in its ability to build a fan base even before a new product is launched and to communicate with customers while receiving specific feedback.” He added, “We will grow alongside even more emerging brands by strengthening the connection between makers and supporters, not only through crowdfunding but also through our store.”
