NIP-99 quality checklist

Title includes the buyer phrase.
Summary states the outcome in one sentence.
Image shows the actual product or output, not only a logo.
Price is visible in sats and, if helpful, approximate fiat.
Delivery method is explicit.
Refund/revision boundary is clear.
Seller identity has a public Nostr trail.
No seed phrase, private key, password, or account cookie is requested.
Tags match how buyers browse.
Listing links to a preview or proof artifact.

Seller onboarding copy

Start with one product. If the listing is clear, a tiny catalog beats an empty shop.
Use the title to say what the buyer gets, not just what the product is called.
Show delivery before payment: file, reply, shipped item, appointment, or service window.
Use public proof when possible: screenshots, sample outputs, test files, or prior fulfilled listings.
Make the post-payment step boring: pay, reply with order code, receive output.
Keep private data out of the order flow. Public context first, sensitive details only if truly needed.

Seven launch posts

Your first Shopstr listing should not try to prove everything. It should answer one buyer question: what do I get after I pay?
A strong NIP-99 listing has boring clarity: title, outcome, price, delivery path, proof, and a clean no-private-keys warning.
For sellers leaving centralized marketplaces, the promise is not only 'no fees.' It is portable identity, direct payment, and no account freeze cliff.
The best Shopstr categories to seed are the ones with simple delivery: digital files, creator support, local bookings, repair services, and micro-bounties.
Seller onboarding idea: publish five starter listing templates, then invite sellers to fork one instead of facing a blank form.
Trust copy matters in a permissionless market. Buyers need to know what happens after payment, how disputes are avoided, and what proof exists.
A weekly Shopstr showcase could feature one clear listing teardown: what works, what to fix, and how to make the payment path cleaner.
