List Products or Services

From your vendor dashboard you can add:

Products — physical or digital goods with images, pricing, and stock tracking.
Services — bookable offerings with duration, pricing, and availability slots (Mon–Fri or custom).

Manage Orders & Bookings

When a buyer places an order or books a service, you'll receive a notification. Update order status (processing → shipped → delivered) and booking status (confirmed → completed) from your vendor dashboard.

Get Paid

Payments are processed through our secure payment gateway. Funds are settled to your registered bank account after order confirmation. Ensure your payout details are up to date in your store settings.

Grow Your Store

Use your vendor analytics to track views, sales, and revenue. Encourage satisfied buyers to leave reviews. Featured stores get prime placement on the marketplace homepage — maintain good ratings and fulfilment speed to qualify.

Tips for Success

Quality Photos — use natural light and a clean background. Products with photos sell significantly more.

Competitive Pricing — research similar listings and price fairly. Offer occasional discounts with compare-at pricing.

Fast Fulfilment — process orders within 48 hours to maintain good standing and earn positive reviews.

Detailed Descriptions — include dimensions, materials, delivery timeline, and what's included for services.
