When LINE initially announced its DIY stickers platform Creator’s Market, there was little doubt that it would be a success, and this sucess was just underlined by the company this week.

The top 10 ranked sticker sets have achieved an average of JPY 22.3 million in sales, while the top 30 ranked sticker sets have achieved an average of JPY 12.9 million. From there, the top 100 achieved an average of JPY 6.5 million, and the top 200 an average of JPY 4.1 million in sales.

More than half (55.5%) of stickers currently on sale have earned JPY 10,000 or more in sales, and LINE says that Creator’s Market “has only just begun,” with plans to make the service “even more enjoyable” as it continues expansion plans into America and other markets around the world with a gaming-backed strategy.
