MultiVendorX Pro

Marketplace setup and scope

MultiVendorX Pro is a paid WordPress extension for creating and managing a multi-vendor marketplace with WooCommerce. It supports marketplaces for physical products, digital downloads, services, rentals, subscriptions, and auction listings. Supported models include retail, niche, booking, rental, subscription, auction, and local online marketplaces. The add-on is described as a code-free solution with a setup wizard and utilities for vendor and marketplace administration.

Install the plugin on a WordPress website using WooCommerce. In the setup wizard, configure vendor registration, commissions, shipping, payments, and marketplace preferences before inviting vendors or adding products.

Vendor and order management

Vendors can manage marketplace activity from personalized dashboards. Their tools include product, coupon, order, order-tracking, and refund management. Administrators oversee the wider store. Other marketplace features include customizable vendor registration, vendor information and archive pages, and support for one product being offered by multiple vendors.

Commission settings include product-based, category-based, vendor-based, fixed, percentage, fixed plus percentage per transaction, fixed plus percentage per unit, and membership-based rates. Pro includes customizable vendor membership plans with free, trial, or paid memberships and configurable fees, rates, and benefits.

Payments, shipping, and products

Payment options include PayPal, Stripe, bank transfer, cash on delivery, and other payment gateways. Real-time vendor payments are supported through PayPal, Stripe, and Mangopay. Shipping tools cover rates by zone, country, distance, and shipping class; Pro includes rates by weight and per-product shipping.

The product supports simple products, while Pro also supports variable and grouped products. Vendors can use product import and export tools.
