How It Works

Create Your Artwork Listing

Upload high-quality photographs of your artwork, provide a detailed description, specify its dimensions, and set your selling price in UAE Dirhams (AED).

Confirm Ownership and Submit

Confirm that you own the artwork or have the legal right to sell it. Submit your listing for review and approval before it becomes visible to customers.

Receive Orders and Arrange Delivery

When a customer purchases your artwork, you will receive an order notification. You are responsible for preparing, securely packaging, and shipping the artwork directly to the customer, as well as providing shipment tracking details.

Keep Your Listings Updated

You must ensure that all listed artworks remain available for purchase. If an artwork is sold through another gallery, website, exhibition, or any other channel, you are responsible for immediately removing or marking it as sold on our marketplace to prevent duplicate sales.

Your Art. Your Price. Our Marketplace.

Reach new art collectors, manage your own listings, and grow your sales through our platform.

List your artworks for free. When a sale is successfully completed, q1art retains 30% of the selling price (25% commission + 5% VAT) and you receive 70%. The cost of shipping the artwork to the buyer is on the artist's account.

Note: Artists, galleries and collectors may list original artworks only. Reproductions, posters, digital prints, and other printed copies are not permitted without prior written approval from the marketplace.

Important rules for artists

Shipping deadline: Dispatch within 3–5 business days after order confirmation, unless otherwise disclosed.
Packaging: Artist is responsible for professional protective packaging.
Shipment cost: The cost of shipping the artwork to the customer is on the artist's account.
Tracking: A valid tracking number must be uploaded to the vendor dashboard.
Insurance: Required for high-value artworks, with an agreed threshold.
Damage or loss: Artist is responsible where caused by inadequate packaging or failure to follow the agreed shipping procedure; courier claims should be handled under the applicable shipping terms.
Commission: q1art retains 30% of the full selling price — 5% VAT and 25% commission. The artist receives 70%.
Payment: Artist receives the 70% balance by bank transfer after confirmed delivery and the agreed dispute period, subject to the payment provider's settlement arrangements. Items delivered in a month become payable from the 1st of the following month.
