How to Create an Online Store on UniSub – Step‑by‑Step Guide for Indian Sellers

Every day, more small businesses, women entrepreneurs, and creators across India are taking their shops digital. But most popular online selling platforms either charge heavy commissions, demand GST registration upfront, or bury your brand under a marketplace name. That’s why UniSub was built — a 100% Indian platform that empowers local sellers and small businesses to create an online store on UniSub for free, with zero commission, direct customer connections, and doorstep delivery. In this guide, we’ll walk you through every single step to launch your own branded store on UniSub — even if you’ve never sold online before.

Step 1: Visit UniSub and Start Your Seller Registration

Go to unisub.in and tap on the “Become a Seller” or “Merchant Onboarding” option. You’ll land on a simple registration page built for the Indian shopkeeper — no clutter, no jargon.
