What it does
Running a store with many sellers gets messy fast. You need a way to let vendors list products, track what each one sells, work out what they are owed and pay them on time. This plugin adds that layer on top of WooCommerce. Vendors get their own profiles and product lists, and you decide who can join, which products go live and how commissions are calculated, whether as fixed amounts or percentages set per vendor, per product or store-wide.
Vendors can sell physical goods, digital downloads and time-based bookings through WooCommerce Bookings integration. They manage their own products, set shipping rules per product, add private or customer notes such as tracking details, and view sales and order reports. On your side, PayPal Payouts handles commission payments instantly, manually or on a weekly, bi-weekly or monthly schedule, with an option to delay payments to allow for returns. It fits new marketplaces and established WooCommerce shops that want to bring in outside sellers.
Best for
- WooCommerce store owners opening their shop to outside sellers
- Agencies building multi-vendor marketplaces for clients
- Marketplaces selling bookings, digital files or physical goods
Features
Flexible commission rates
Set commissions by vendor, by product or across the whole store, using either fixed amounts or percentages to match the deal you have with each seller.
Scheduled PayPal payouts
Pay vendors through PayPal Payouts instantly, manually, weekly, bi-weekly or monthly, and delay payouts when you want time to handle returns first.
Vendor and product approval
Require approval for vendor registrations and optionally moderate new products before they appear, so you keep control over what is sold on your marketplace.
Vendor self-management
Vendors edit their own products, set shipping rules per product, add private or customer notes like tracking information, and check their own sales and order reports.
Physical, digital and booking products
Sellers can offer physical goods, digital downloads and time-based bookings, with booking products handled through the WooCommerce Bookings integration.
Vendor profiles and ratings
Display vendor names, profiles, photos and aggregate product ratings on the storefront so buyers can see who they are purchasing from.
Vendor Admin and Manager roles
Assign Vendor Admin or Vendor Manager roles with customizable access levels, letting vendors or their teams handle backend settings for their own shop.
Sales and earnings reports
Monitor vendor sales, commissions and monthly earnings through reporting tools, and send automatic notifications to vendors when their applications are approved.
