Multi-vendor platforms need more than a product catalog. Plan vendor onboarding, commission rules, split payments, returns, and operational dashboards early.
Core modules
- Vendor and customer portals with separate permissions
- Catalog, search, filters, coupons, and tax/shipping rules
- Order cycle, returns, refunds, and notifications
- Payment and shipping gateway integration
- Inventory sync and merchant account support
Push notifications are most useful inside customer and vendor mobile apps — for order updates, delivery alerts, and chat — rather than on a marketing website.
