To start selling on any marketplace app, you first need to register as an app user by signing up on the marketplace app.
When you click on the app page, on which the Marketplace component is added, you will see the signup page.
Once you signup on the app, you can visit the Marketplace zone by clicking on the 3 vertical dots at the top right-hand-side corner of your app.
Please scroll the top menu horizontally and click on Sell Products & Services option.
Please add/upload your image and complete the seller profile.
Once you click Save, you need to connect to the Stripe account to receive payments for the sold products and services.
Note: The Marketplace admin needs to enable Stripe Connect to start accepting and giving payments to sellers. You won't be able to signup as seller unless Stripe setup has been done by the admin. Stripe connect can be enabled by referring to this article.
You will be redirected to the Stripe website, where you must enter all details related to your own Stripe account.
Once your Stripe account is setup, you need to wait for the marketplace app admin to approve you as a seller.
Once you are approved, you will receive a confirmation email and your marketplace app will give you an option to add products.
Click on the Add Products button to start adding new products.
You can add multiple images for the product, add its Name, Subtitle, Description, Price, Stock quantity available, Location and Delivery type (Home Delivery, Pickup). If you want to make the product active for sale, please change the Product Status to Active and click Add Product button.
The added product will now show under Sell Products & Services section, but will be under Pending status. The marketplace admin will receive a notification about the added product and once they approve the product, it will become live on the app.
You can keep adding other products without waiting for the approval.
Once your product is approved, you will get notified via email. Your product will also show as Approved under the Sell Product & Services section.
The product will also show under the marketplace section to all app users.
The app users can buy the product by clicking on it and then clicking on the Buy Now button. They can also check the seller profile or contact the seller, in case they have any questions regarding the product.
Purchased products can be checked under Sold Products & Services section under the Marketplace zone. Seller will also get an email notifying about the sale.
Once the order is delivered, you can change the status of your order by clicking on it.
Seller can change the order status to Pending Delivery, Shipped or Delivered.
When a buyer contacts you regarding any product, you will be notified in your app.
You can visit the Marketplace Zone and click on Chats to see all buyer conversations. Clicking on the buyer will show you all the chats/product inquiries and you can reply to the buyers as well.
