Answers to common questions about buying, selling and printing.
Buying
Do I need an account to buy?
No. You can check out as a guest with just your email. To download your files, sign in with Google or Discord using the same email address and your purchases will appear under My downloads.
How do I download my files?
Open Dashboard → My downloads and press "Download Source File". Links are generated on demand and expire after 15 minutes, so just press the button again if one expires.
Which payment methods are accepted?
Credit and debit cards through Stripe. All payments are processed over an encrypted connection; we never see or store your full card number.
I paid but cannot see my files.
Orders usually appear within a few seconds. Refresh the page, and make sure you are signed in with the same email you used at checkout. If it is still missing after a few minutes, contact [email protected] with your receipt.
Licences
What is the difference between licences?
Personal use: print for yourself, no selling. Commercial (royalty-free): use in products or sell physical prints. Editorial: news, education and commentary. In every case you may not resell or share the files themselves.
Can I sell prints of a model I bought?
Only if the listing offers a Commercial licence and you chose it at checkout. Personal-use files may not be sold as prints.
3D printing
What does "print-tested" mean?
The creator has printed the model and verified it prints successfully with the recommended settings shown on the page.
Which file formats are supported?
Creators upload STL, OBJ, GLTF and ZIP bundles. Previews on the site are shown in an interactive 3D viewer.
My print failed. What can I do?
Check the recommended layer height, infill and supports on the listing, and make sure your slicer repaired the mesh. If the file itself is broken, see our Refund Policy.
Selling
How do I start selling?
Open the Creator Studio, upload your files, add a description, category, price and print settings, and submit. Every new model is reviewed before it goes live.
Why was my model rejected?
Common reasons are broken or non-manifold meshes, files that infringe someone else's work, or listings that do not match the files. The reviewer's note explains what to fix; you can resubmit after correcting it.
What are Tribes?
Tribes are monthly memberships. Creators define tiers with perks such as monthly STL drops or a commercial merchant licence, and supporters subscribe to unlock them.
Copyright and safety
How do I report a stolen model?
Use the DMCA / Copyright form with a link to the listing and to your original work. We review reports promptly and remove infringing content.
Can I cancel a Tribe?
Yes, anytime from "Manage membership" on the Tribe page. You keep access until the end of the month you have paid for.
