JADUZ is a curated online marketplace where Bangladeshi makers sell personalised gifts, from name embroidery to custom portraits. Joining and listing are free, Pathao collects from the maker's door, buyers pay cash on delivery, and makers withdraw to bKash, Nagad or a bank. Birthdays lead gift occasions, then anniversaries, Valentine's Day and Eid (The Financial Express, August 2026).
The personalised gifts market in Bangladesh
- For gift businesses in Bangladesh, "birthdays sit at the top for almost every business, followed closely by anniversaries, Valentine's Day, and Eid" (The Financial Express, August 2026)
- Gift hampers are "customisable to whatever the buyer has in mind", but "most of this is sourced through wholesale marketplaces in China" (The Financial Express, August 2026)
- A collection of Bangla-letter earrings and pendants could be personalised with names, priced within ৳1,500. Pendants were the more popular because "any number of letters can be fitted on a pendant", and the brand also engraved silver-plated pens with names or initials (The Business Standard, February 2021)
- Street portrait artists outside the Jatiya Sangsad Bhaban charged ৳200–300 for a quick portrait from a mobile photo, ৳500 for a live one and ৳600–1,000 with extra artwork, each done in 15–20 minutes (The Daily Star, October 2015)
- Hazaribagh's leather makers also fill bulk orders for corporate gifts and customised products, and for overseas buyers (The Business Standard, June 2025)
- Around Valentine's Day, businesses said card and gift item sales usually top about ৳100 crore, and the courier Paperfly saw 10–15% more e-commerce delivery orders (The Business Standard, February 2021)
- Among gift searches in Bangladesh, "personalized gift ideas", "custom bday gift" and "customized gift ideas" rank highest in Google's suggestions, and buyers also add the country: "customized gift bangladesh" and "customized gift bd". That is suggestion rank, not search volume (Google Autocomplete collected by JADUZ, secondary, October 2026)

How selling personalised gifts works on JADUZ
Every maker follows the same path from order to money:
- An order comes in
- You accept and pack it
- Pathao picks it up
- The buyer pays cash
- Your earning reaches your wallet
- Withdraw to bKash, Nagad or bank
Listing, photos and packing
- Say exactly what the buyer can change: the text (name, date, short message), the script (English, Bangla, Arabic or a mix), the colours and extras such as a frame. Give the letters per line, counting spaces, the finished size in inches and centimetres, and for a portrait how many people or pets the price includes.
- Add personalisation questions to your listing, such as "Name to stitch" with a letter limit, so the buyer types the details when ordering and you see them with the order.
- Make the text exactly as the buyer typed it, in the script they chose. Names often have more than one accepted spelling in Bangla and English, so never correct a buyer's spelling.
- Put your real making days in the listing's own field and keep dates out of the description: no "delivery before Eid". Buyers see the making time, so they can order early for weddings, Eid and birthdays.
- Say which parts are done by hand and which by machine. Hand-lettered and laser-engraved are different things: a laser-engraved name is fine when you say so and name your handwork too.
- Photograph a sample with a made-up name, and say in the description and alt text that it's a sample. Show at least one long name or a Bangla one, in daylight on a plain background.
- Pack by the base material: corner protectors and cardboard over the glass for framed portraits and lettering, tissue and a clear bag against damp for embroidery and hoops, and a double box for engraved ceramics.
- JADUZ accepts pieces you make or personalise by hand yourself. Hampers of bought-in items, printed mugs and LED name lights are refused, because the personal work in them isn't yours.

Good to know
Where can I sell personalised or customized gifts online in Bangladesh?
Bangladeshi makers sell personalised and customized gifts through their own Facebook or Instagram page, marketplaces such as Daraz, and JADUZ, a curated marketplace for handmade work. On JADUZ, joining and listing are free, the buyer types the name or date when ordering, Pathao collects the finished piece from your door, and the buyer pays cash on delivery.
How does the buyer send me the name or date?
Through personalisation questions on your listing. Add short questions such as "Name to stitch" or "Wedding date", set a letter limit and mark them required, or offer a list of choices such as thread colours. The buyer answers when ordering, and you see the answers with the order.
What if the buyer gives a wrong spelling? Can a named piece be returned?
Make the text exactly as the buyer typed it, and never correct it, because many names have more than one accepted spelling. JADUZ doesn't take change-of-mind returns: a personalised piece can be handed back at the door only if it's faulty or isn't the personalisation ordered. A clear letter limit and a sample photo prevent most mistakes.
Can I write names in Bangla and Arabic as well as English?
Yes. Say which scripts you write, ask the buyer to type the name in the script they want, and have someone who reads that script check your lettering. Show a Bangla or long-name sample in your photos. Names on handwork are an old custom: some nakshi kanthas carry the name of the person they were made for (Banglapedia).
I sell gift boxes and hampers. Can I sell them on JADUZ?
Only if the pieces inside are handmade by you. Hampers of bought-in or wholesale items, printed mugs and LED name lights aren't accepted, because the work in them isn't yours. A set of your own hand-embroidered, hand-painted or hand-lettered pieces can be listed, with each piece described.
Is laser engraving allowed, or must it be done by hand?
Laser engraving is allowed when you say so plainly, in the name or the first line, and also name your handwork, such as the hand-finished wood, the painting or the assembly. Never call a laser-engraved name hand-engraved: buyers care about the difference, and a curator checks every piece before it goes live.
