A minor under 18 cannot create accounts on major online selling platforms like Etsy due to age restrictions requiring parental accounts, preventing them from selling handmade crafts online.
Existing platforms require users to be 18+ or need parental oversight accounts, creating barriers for minors who want to independently sell handmade items online.
