The short answer: taxes.

I’ve chosen this setup to keep international taxes and checkout as simple as possible for everyone.

Payhip handles the relevant digital taxes for my customers in the US, CA, EU and UK, while Etsy takes care of VAT and similar taxes in many other countries around the world. So wherever you’re shopping from, you can purchase your pattern through the option that works best for your location.

Thank you for understanding.

If you have any questions or run into any difficulties, please feel free to write to me — I’m always happy to help. 🤍
