Minted connects independent artists with customers looking for unique designs through its online marketplace. The platform allows artists to submit their work to a Design Challenge, where customers and fellow artists vote on their favorites. The winning designs are then produced and sold by Minted, with artists earning a share of the sales. This crowdsourcing approach ensures a constant influx of fresh, customer-approved products, including holiday cards, personalized stationery, art prints, gift wrap, and home decor. Minted stands out from competitors by offering value-added services like free recipient addressing and high-quality printing options, enhancing the shopping experience. The company's goal is to support independent artists while providing customers with distinctive, high-quality products.
