Registration Is Designed for Serious Buyers

The Indus Craft Co. operates as a structured B2B sourcing platform — not a retail marketplace. While product browsing is public, purchasing requires account registration. This is intentional: it allows us to identify genuine business buyers, provide tailored communication, and build long-term sourcing relationships.

For Buyers
Registration unlocks commercial discussions, sample adjustments, customisation requests, and a full order management dashboard — none of which are accessible as a guest.
For TICC
A registered account lets us track your sourcing journey, evaluate commercial requests fairly, and prioritise repeat buyers — protecting both sides of the transaction.
🔓
Browsing is free and open. Registration is only required when you're ready to purchase, request samples, or open a commercial discussion. Creating an account is free and takes less than 2 minutes.

9 Benefits of Registering an Account

Here's exactly what becomes available to you once you have a registered account with TICC.

01
Complete Order Visibility & Record Management
Your account dashboard, always accessible

Your account dashboard gives you a centralised view of every transaction — past and present. No more chasing emails for invoice copies or shipment references.

Full order history
Invoice downloads
Shipment tracking links
Payment records
Claim submission tracking
Import documentation support
All transaction data remains accessible within your account — useful for accounting reconciliation, internal procurement management, and compliance audits.
02
Eligibility for Volume Discussions & Sample Adjustments
Case-by-case commercial flexibility for registered buyers

Registered buyers may be considered for sample cost adjustments when placing substantial bulk orders, and can open volume pricing discussions that are not available to unregistered visitors.

Sample adjustment is not automatic — it depends on:
·Order size and commercial value
·Buyer history and registration status
·Commercial viability of the overall relationship
03
One-to-One Product Discussions
Direct consultation before you commit to bulk volumes

Before placing a bulk order, registered buyers can request direct consultation calls to clarify product specifications, understand material properties, and assess market suitability — reducing costly misalignment.

Product clarification calls
Material explanation sessions
Customisation feasibility review
Market suitability consultation
04
Customisation & Private Label Opportunities
Your brand identity on handcrafted Indian products

Customisation requires production planning and cannot be handled through standard checkout without prior coordination. A registered account is the starting point for any customisation request.

Packaging customisation
Private labelling & branding
Size or design adjustments
Material modifications
Market-specific adaptations
05
Mid-Term & Long-Term Supply Planning
Plan ahead within artisan production cycles

For serious buyers, TICC supports structured supply planning around artisan production cycles. Early engagement through your account allows better scheduling and inventory alignment — particularly important for seasonal buyers.

Volume forecasting support
Production slot allocation
Lead-time structuring
Supply continuity discussions
06
Repeat Order Efficiency
Faster, better documented, easier to manage

Once registered, repeat ordering becomes significantly more streamlined. Your account stores shipping preferences and transaction records, so you're not starting from scratch with every order.

Faster reordering
Saved shipping preferences
Better-documented orders
Easier internal management
07
Account-Based Support & Risk Management
Faster resolution, priority handling, fraud protection

Registered accounts receive faster issue resolution, centralised communication, and priority handling for repeat buyers. Registration also protects against fraudulent or abusive purchasing behaviour — making the platform safer for all buyers.

Centralised communication
Claim tracking
Priority for repeat buyers

Structured Customer Support
Support routed through your account for accuracy

All support interactions are linked to your registered account, giving both you and the TICC team a clear, shared record of your orders, issues, and communications — no information lost between interactions.

Claim status tracking

09
Long-Term Sourcing Partnership
From transactional purchase to strategic supply chain

The Indus Craft Co. is not a marketplace. We function as a seller of record, exporter of record, and supply chain coordinator. Registration is what moves the relationship from a one-off transaction to a structured sourcing partnership.

Why Registration Matters in International B2B Trade

International wholesale sourcing is not the same as retail shopping. It involves a set of operational and compliance requirements that simply cannot be managed without a structured account framework.

International B2B sourcing involves:
📋
Customs Compliance
COO documents, HS codes, and import declarations that must match your registered importer details
Payment Verification
Secure, traceable international payments tied to verified business accounts
📁
Documentation Management
Invoices, packing lists, and shipment records that need to be consistently maintained and retrievable
🗓
Production Scheduling
Artisan production cycles that require advance coordination and consistent buyer communication
🌐
Cross-Border Coordination
Logistics, insurance, and clearance coordination that spans multiple countries and time zones
Registration provides the professional framework to manage all of these elements effectively — for both buyer and supplier.
