'''BOOTH''' is a third-party marketplace for distributing creations. These creations vary wildly. But they mostly focus on things like bags, clothing, acrylic stands, 3d models, jewellery, music, stickers and art. In a setting that most people would categorize as "homemade".


In 2023 this market ballooned to a small powerhouse, generating 21 million dollars in revenue just on 3D assets alone.
'''BOOTH''' is an online marketplace operated by [[pixiv Inc.]] for distributing and selling a wide variety of creations. It is not limited to content related to VRChat.


BOOTH primarily caters to a Japanese audience, resulting in content that often focuses on the local market. As a result, many sellers may not speak English or may have limited ability to write in English. Sellers offering 3D models specifically for VRChat often assume that buyers have a basic understanding of Unity, VRChat, and/or the ability to understand Japanese.<ref>https://vrclibrary.com/wiki/books/sherus-boothpm-avatar-guide-wip/page/what-is-boothpm-and-for-who-is-this-guide</ref>
