Built for the guy painting spoons in his garage on weekends, and for the local bait shop owner running 15 SKUs of his own designs. You make. We sell. We pay you weekly. No website. No marketing. No shipping logistics. No customer service. No returns to chase.
Wholesale typically pays makers 30-60 days after the sale. We pay our partners every Friday for the prior week's orders. ACH direct deposit. No invoice chasing.
You pour brass on the kitchen stove. You hand-paint every spoon. Your buddies all want one because they catch with yours when nothing else works. You've thought about selling them but you don't want to build a website, run ads, deal with Stripe, or ship boxes from your porch.
You ship: 20-200 lures/month to us
You run a small shop. You've got 15-30 SKUs of your own painted spoons and spinners in the case. Foot traffic is steady but you want online reach without building Shopify, fighting ad costs, or running fulfillment. Your custom colors are local-favorite secret weapons.
You ship: 100-1000 lures/month to us
Submit the form below. Send us 3-5 sample lures. We verify finish quality, durability, and consistency. Decision in 7 days.
Once approved, you make batches on your schedule and ship them to our fulfillment address in Idaho. We supply pre-printed labels.
We list your batches on duskcraft.com, run the marketing, take the orders, package, and ship direct. Your name appears on the batch card.
Every Friday at 9 AM PT, your week's earnings hit your bank via ACH. No invoices to chase. No 30-day waits. Statement breakdown included.
Industry standard for makers selling through a third-party platform is 30-50%. We pay 60% because we want the best garage makers — and the way you keep the best is by paying them what their craft is worth.
That's a side-income tier without quitting your day job. Top partners ship 300+ lures/month and net $4,000+/mo painting on weekends. Bait shops scaling to 800/month gross north of $11,500/mo.
No. Each batch card shows the maker name. Your batches are listed with your story. You build your own following inside the Duskcraft brand umbrella — like a label-mate, not a ghost-maker.
We hold unsold inventory for 12 months. If it does not move, we ship it back to you at our cost. You owe nothing.
Yes. Non-exclusive arrangement. Sell your own brand on eBay, Facebook, your local bait shop counter, wherever — Duskcraft is a sales channel, not a contract.
We handle the conversation. We replace it from inventory. We track defect rates per maker and share them privately. If your defect rate stays under 2% we never come to you about it.
30-day notice. We finish selling what is in our warehouse from your existing batches, pay you out, return any unsold stock, close your account. No exit fee.
Duskcraft does — but with one exception: customers who buy 3+ of your batches get an option to follow you directly. We do not block direct relationships once they pick a favorite maker.
Etsy charges fees + listing costs + you still build your own shop and do customer service. Wholesale pays you 30-60 days late at deep discount. We pay weekly at 60% and do the actual work for you.
Honest application. We read every one personally. If you make a lure that catches, we want to hear from you. Decisions in 7 days; we ask for samples after we say yes.
