DaWanda.com was a German online marketplace for handmade, unique, and custom-made products, founded in 2006 in Berlin. It connected independent makers and small designers with buyers across Germany and Europe, comparable to Etsy in the DACH region. DaWanda ceased operations on 30 August 2018 and partnered with Etsy to migrate its sellers and buyers; the www.dawanda.com domain now redirects to Etsy Germany. This profile was surfaced as a portfolio company of Insight Partners and added to the API Evangelist network as a stub. No public developer program or API surface was found during enrichment; the company is defunct and retained here as a historical/portfolio record.
DaWanda.com is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Marketplace, E-Commerce, Handmade, and Germany.
