ChatStick Market Review: A Sticker Marketplace From Brands and Creators That Works in Any Chat App
Stickers say in one tap what would otherwise take a sentence or two. The catch is that the packs you love are often locked inside a single messenger. If you want a sticker app that gathers work from brands and independent creators in one place and lets you send it in the chat apps you already use, ChatStick Market is worth a look.
In this review we walk through ChatStick Market : Sticker App by ChatStick Company Limited: what it does, how to get started, how ChatStick coins are priced, which devices it supports, and how creators can join the marketplace to sell their own stickers.
What is ChatStick Market?
ChatStick Market describes itself as a center of stickers from brands and creators. Stickers are organized into categories, and popular packs are ranked so you can find what is trending without endless scrolling. Whether your friends are on Facebook, iMessage, WhatsApp, Skype, LINE or another messenger, the app's keyboard function lets you send your stickers there.
The app has been on the App Store since 2017 and is the mobile home of chatstickmarket.com, the site you are reading now. That makes it relevant to two groups: people who enjoy collecting and sending stickers, and brands or illustrators who want their work to reach more chat users.
