Introducing local pickups on Tiny Store

Let your customers preorder and pick up their order in 3 seamless ways!

Whether you’re selling cookies from your kitchen, candles from your craft studio, or custom sweaters at weekend markets, we know one thing: small businesses thrive when they’re local. That’s why we’re so excited to introduce one of our most requested features ever…

Local Pickups — now live on Tiny!

And the best part? You’re not limited to just one. You can use all three depending on how you run your business.

Local pickups are flexible, fast, personal, and built exactly for how modern entrepreneurs work today. Here’s how each option works and how merchants are already using them:

1. Store Location

Perfect for: shops, studios, restaurants, or any place with set hours. Your Store Location is your home base — the hub where your customers know where to find you. It’s ideal if you have consistent hours or a dedicated space.

Examples: A home baker offering pickups from a neatly labeled “Cookie Shelf” on her porch between 4 – 7 PM.

A plant seller with a backyard greenhouse open every Saturday.

A nail artist letting clients pick up DIY press-on sets directly from her studio.

Why merchants love it: Predictable hours, clear directions, and a place customers can return to again and again.

2. Events

Perfect for: craft fairs, farmers’ markets, pop-ups, maker nights, and seasonal booths Your business moves — and now Tiny moves with you. Add any event where you’ll be physically present, post your Tiny Store link on your socials, and let customers pick up their orders right at your booth.

Examples: A candle maker sets up “Pickup at The Sunday Maker’s Market – Booth #24.”

A jeweler pre-sells product online so customers don’t miss out at a packed craft fair.

A small food vendor lets customers preorder dumplings for pickup at the Lunar New Year festival.

Why merchants love it: No more “Are you at the market today?” messages. Clear location, dates, and times — all visible at checkout. Merchants know exactly what to bring to their events.

3. Meetup Spots

Perfect for: home-based sellers, custom orders, and anyone who loves flexibility. Meetup Spots let you offer casual, friendly pickup spots — coffee shops, park benches, community centers, your apartment lobby — anywhere you feel comfortable meeting your customers. All of this without displaying the address online - just your general area until you agree to share it.

Examples: A sticker artist offering pickup every Wednesday at the local Starbucks at 6 PM.

A home cook meeting customers in the library parking lot (the unofficial “dumpling exchange zone”).

A soap maker who prefers not to share their exact home address but is happy to meet at the local dog park.

Why merchants love it: It keeps things safe, flexible, and convenient. You choose the places you’re available to meet up. Your customers select which works best. Agree on the time and done!

We’re betting on the hyperlocal economy.

Local pickups are more than logistics — they’re part of your brand story. They make shopping personal. They make fulfillment flexible. They make running a small business feel possible.

And now, with Tiny Store, you can mix and match all three:

• A home pickup spot during the week
• A craft fair pickup on the weekend
• A coffee shop meetup for VIPs

All in one place. All uniquely you.
