Hey there! I'm wondering if an Etsy shop can be used as my website to claim & then become a Verified Merchant.
Hello @professionalprintables
It's impossible for your Etsy shop to become a VM. Only those that own their own website (outside Etsy) can only be qualified.

It is possible
To link your Etsy shop to your Pinterest account, you can follow these steps:
Sign in to your Pinterest account. If you don't have an account, you can create one for free.
Once you're logged in, click on your profile picture in the top-right corner of the screen and select "Settings" from the dropdown menu.
In the Settings menu, scroll down to the "Claim" section and click on the "Claim" button next to the "Your Etsy shop" option.
Pinterest will provide you with a unique code or a file that you need to add to your Etsy shop. You have two options to complete the linking process:
a. Option 1: Add the unique code manually
Leave the Pinterest page open and open a new tab or window.
In the new tab or window, go to your Etsy shop's dashboard and click on "Settings" on the top-right corner of the page.
From the dropdown menu, select "Options."
On the left side of the Options page, click on "Web addresses."
Scroll down to the "Pinterest" section and paste the unique code provided by Pinterest into the box labeled "Pinterest verification."
Save your changes.
b. Option 2: Upload the file provided by Pinterest
Download the file provided by Pinterest.
Go to your Etsy shop's dashboard, click on "Settings" on the top-right corner of the page, and select "Options" from the dropdown menu.
On the left side of the Options page, click on "Web addresses."
Scroll down to the "Pinterest" section and click on "Choose file" or a similar button to upload the file.
Save your changes.
After adding the code or uploading the file, return to your Pinterest tab or window and click the "Finish" button to complete the verification process.
Once you've completed these steps, your Etsy shop will be linked to your Pinterest account, and you'll be able to utilize Pinterest's features for merchants, such as tagging products in Pins and creating shoppable posts.
