Our Not On The High Street Campaign
Our Not On The High Street Summer campaign has officially launched across our website, app, and all social media and marketing channels!
The new T H E S U M M E R, campaign encourages customers to rediscover NOTHS and shop with us for everything they need to create their best summer ever. Unlike our typical gifting campaigns, this one has a refreshing lifestyle angle, and we're thrilled to see it resonate with both new and returning customers.
We've focused on building a cinematic feel, celebrating and capturing the essence of summer and making it feel like a major event. It's energetic, fun-filled, and fast-paced, showcasing the vast range of opportunities we offer. As always, this campaign includes plenty of Partner-focused content, featuring 'Summer with our small brands' to highlight our wonderful Partners on our social channels.

Top Tips Before You Apply
Be Unique
Not On The High Street are open minded about unique product offerings of all types and are constantly looking to diversify their product mix even more!
So don't be put off if your product range is a bit niche - in fact, if you’ve got something distinct to bring to the table you’re even more likely to excel as a NOTHS Partner. Small sellers with big visions are just what Notonthehighstreet are looking for.
Get Product Pictures Right
NOTHS only works with businesses that ‘knock their socks off’.
They’re looking for memorable product images that tell a story and give an idea of the craft involved in your products. You won’t need to have your images professionally shot, but good quality pics are a must, so spend some time getting your image proposition right.
You could use product images from your own website but make sure they’re the right fit to get you noticed by Notonthehighstreet’s experts.
Check Out Other Sellers
Look and learn from other companies on Not On The High Street.
Search for your niche or product category to get a good insight into the types of images, descriptions, style and feel that successful NOTHS Partners use. It's also a good way to find out if your product images are up to scratch before applying.
How To Sell On Notonthehighstreet
So you want to sell on Not On The High Street? Follow our step by step guide and you'll be a successful Partner in no time!
Step One - Fill out NOTHS' Online Application Form
The most important part is submitting a strong application. You’ll need to include information on:
- Your company
- The type of products you offer and your full product range in detail
- Your website, Flickr or Pinterest (although your website is preferred if you have one)
- Your vision
- Your process
Partnerships are currently only open to businesses with an address in the UK or Ireland.
Step Two - Pay the Joining Fee
Once you’ve been invited to join Not On The High Street, there’s a one-off joining fee of £199 and you have 3 months to get your first listing up.
You won’t be charged for each listing like other marketplaces, but for every item you list, NOTHS will take a 25% cut.
This might sound like a lot, but not charging you per listing will save you as you expand your product range. And Notonthehighstreet's cut covers the integration of your products into their marketing mix, including SEO and PR, and a range of business guidance and support services to help your business grow.
Step Three - Perfect Your Listings
It's time to get those products flying off the shelves and if you haven’t got the idea already, selling on NOTHS is about being unique and memorable.
The best way to ‘set out your stall’ and hit the ground running is to put time into your listings, always keeping the customer and the marketplace in mind.
Not On The High Street encourages companies to share their brand story, inspiration and ethos with browsers. This, alongside quality product images, descriptions and vital information (T&Cs, returns and delivery info) means you’ll be set for success.
