NativeMade exists to empower Native creators, protect cultural integrity, and provide consumers with a trusted, ethical marketplace for authentic Indigenous art.

What makes us different

  • • Native-owned business - review conducted by tribally enrolled website administrator
  • • Compliance with federal and tribal cultural protection laws
  • • Significantly lower fees than industry standard (target 2.5–3.5%)
  • • No subscription tiers or paywalls

Where revenue goes

As a benefit corporation, NativeMade is run as a mission-aligned business. A modest portion of fees sustains the platform and its small founding team; the rest is intentionally kept low so artisans keep more of every sale. Pricing stays fair on both sides — sellers earn a living wage from their craft, and buyers pay honest prices for authentic work.
