Multi Vendor Marketplace module Frequently Asked Questions

Please check the user guide to learn more about this extension.

Can the Marketplace administrator control which products to publish on his/her online store?

Absolutely. The Marketplace administrator can determine which suppliers can be trusted to freely upload products and which suppliers require admin moderation and approval. The built-in notifications system will notify you whenever a new uploaded product requires moderation and approval and will also notify suppliers when their product has been approved, moderated or dismissed.

Is there an automated system for delivering payments to suppliers?

Not in the standard edition. 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. If you’re interested in integrating an automated paypal payments module for paying vendors, please contact our team.

What is the admin fee for selling supplier products?

The admin can determine a default fee for all supplier sales, or create a custom fee for each supplier based on mutual agreement.

How will store payments be processed?

All store payments are processed via a single shopping cart. Using the admin billing system, the Admin can then distribute suppliers with their earnings based on the agreement between them.

Will suppliers have access to my admin account?

Absolutely not! Once opened, each supplier account is given it’s own front end dashboard from which they can edit their profile, manage products and orders and view reports.

How many suppliers can I have on my store?

There is no limit to the number of supplier accounts that can operate on a single Magento store. However, if you plan to have lots of suppliers selling lots of products, be sure to acquire an adequate hosting plan.
