HKCMarket is a premium digital marketplace for paper crafters: cut files, sketches, printables, and tutorials. Browse without an account. Pay with cash, points, or a bundle. Earn points as you explore, share, and contribute. Every part of it is built to be fun and fast, not a squeeze.
What's in the catalog
- Cut files. SVG, PNG, JPG, and DXF formats for Cricut, Silhouette, and other cutting machines. Most of the catalog today.
- Sketches. Hand-drawn layout references for scrapbookers.
- Printables. PDF templates, journal pages, planner inserts.
- Tutorials (coming soon). Step-by-step walkthroughs that bundle cut files, sketches, and printables together.
Finding what you want
Full-text search, category pills, and theme tags are on the browse page. Your recently viewed files are saved locally so you can jump back in. As you interact (adding to cart, purchasing, rating), the homepage surfaces more of what fits you.
How to pay
- Card. Secure checkout via Stripe, either one-click on the file page or in batch from the cart.
- Existing points. 1 point is worth 1 cent toward any file. Apply whatever you like.
- Points bundles. Stock up at progressively better rates. 2,000 pts for $4.95 (4x value), 6,000 pts for $9.95 (6x value), 20,000 pts for $19.95 (10x value). The biggest tier is always the best rate per point, saving up to 90%.
- Mix and match. Existing balance + a new bundle + card in a single checkout. Mixed payments settle atomically.
How to earn points
Points are the reward currency for participating, not just buying.
- Welcome bonus. New accounts get a starting points gift.
- Referrals. The single biggest earning path. Your friend signs up through your link, you earn points; when they buy, you earn more. They get a welcome gift too, so the invite feels generous, not pitchy.
- Ratings & reviews. Small points for rating, more for detailed reviews with photos.
- User content. Photos of your finished projects earn points; featured ones earn more.
- Streaks & milestones. Daily-visit streaks (capped so it's not a grind), first purchase, tenth purchase, account anniversary.
- Seasonal. Double-points weekends, themed challenges.
Earning paths roll out in phases as the site grows. Check back, or sign up to be first in line as each one activates.
For Craft & Connect members
(Coming soon.) Your Craft & Connect points will sync to your HKCMarket account when the bridge launches, so you don't start from zero. Earning on either platform will update the unified balance; spending is one economy. Account-linking instructions will appear here when the integration goes live.
