Market day
Your bookings
The ten-day rule: cancel ten or more days out and every cent (credits and cash both) lands back as credit, automatically, and the space returns to sale. Inside that window, email us and a person sorts it.
Book a space
One space per market. Pick a different one and it upgrades your booking rather than adding a second. Most partners see a business rate and a sliding-scale rate; verified nonprofits and team members see whatever we've set for them instead, no self-selecting. Credits apply themselves first, oldest first, and the card only ever covers what's left.
Past events
Markets that have already happened — whether you checked in, and what you paid.
Workshops & expo slots
Paid admission to something specific — a workshop, an expo table — not the same as booking your own booth. Credits cover it the same as anywhere else in the app; card covers the rest.
Your tickets
Add notes for event placement: seating preferences, product compatibility, or anything that helps us arrange things thoughtfully.
Volunteer
Open shifts.
Claim what fits. What you earn lands once your hours are approved, not when you sign up.

Community
Post a photo, ask what's wrong, and someone who's seen it before will probably know. No question is too basic.

A dozen people three markets away are into the exact same thing you are. These are where they already are.

Partners you've followed from the directory. You'll get an email whenever one of them adds something new to their catalog.
Post what you've got and what you're after, then browse what everyone else has listed. Like what you see and offer one of your own posts in trade: it's a match, and a private message thread, the moment they like yours back too.
meet safely
The Canopy connects you with a match — what happens after that is between you two, same as any marketplace. A few things that help: trading at an actual market is safer than a private one-on-one meetup — pick "at a market" below and you're surrounded by other people the whole time. If you do arrange something separately, meet in public, bring a friend if you can, and never feel obligated to go through with a trade that doesn't sit right. See something off about a match? Use "report this" in your matches list — staff reviews every one.

Badges earned
Working toward
Some badges track themselves. Others need a person to say yes — apply, and Carl reads it.
Volunteer points
Earned only through an approved volunteer shift — its own balance, separate from the community points above and the credit wallet below.

Volunteering
Whether or not you're a partner, you can pick up shifts and host workshops for credit, same wallet either way.
application sent
We've got it — a person reads every one, usually within a week. Once you're approved, the shift board and workshop pitches open right up and you'll get an email.
Public directory
Show or hide yourself in the public listings — set this whenever you like, whether or not you've applied to sell or volunteer yet. Hiding doesn't touch your standing, it just keeps your name off the page.
Who can message you
Separate from the directory switch above — being listed doesn't mean being reachable. This doesn't change anything about your account yet; it's here so it's set before it does.
Muted and blocked
Muting stops the emails and notifications about someone; they can still reach you and you'll still see it. Blocking closes it both ways. Either one can be undone here, and neither is ever shown to them.
