History[edit]
Big Cartel was founded by Matt Wigham and Eric Turner in 2005.[4] As a musician and web developer, Wigham originally wanted to create a way to sell his own band's merchandise online. Turner, a fellow experienced developer who had collaborated with Wigham in the past, soon joined him and together they set out to create an easier and more affordable way for all bands and record labels to sell their work on the Internet.[2][5]
Since 2005, the platform has expanded to support all types of creators, from fashion designers to bakers, to start their own customizable online shop and sell their work.[2][6][7] By 2018, the platform had nearly a million clients,[8] garnered over $2.4 billion in sales to artists, and was named in Forbes' list of America's Best Small Companies.[4]
