Customer Reviews

Asi Erenberg, CEO, Corporate Gift
Extension Works Perfectly
I used CreativeMinds Marketplace Extension for Magento® to build our multi vendor store corporategift.com, the extension works perfectly and the support and communication was really amazing, highly recommended!

  • Fantastic, unbelievable across all fronts

    We implemented, tested, and did a code review for every single B2B solution on the market before selecting CreativeMinds’ Multi-Vendor Marketplace. CreativeMinds checked all of the boxes. It’s been fantastic, unbelievable across all fronts. Not only for delivering according to our requirements, but also on occasion spotting some requirement or consequence of a change that we missed during our own scoping and prototyping.”

Is there an automated marketplace system for delivering payments to suppliers?

Not in the standard plan. The extension includes an admin billing system that lets you track pending payments to vendors, but the actual payment is done manually based on the agreed fee.
