WC Vendors Pro extends WooCommerce with tools for running a marketplace where multiple sellers manage their own stores. Each vendor can have a store page and unique URL. Marketplaces can sell physical and digital goods, services, bookings, subscriptions, and second-hand items. Some product types, such as bookings and subscriptions, may require compatible add-ons.

Set commissions and vendor plans

Configure commissions globally or by vendor or product. Pro includes fixed and fixed-plus-fee commission options. The WC Vendors Membership add-on supports vendor plans with plan-based commissions and limits for products, categories, documents, and storage. WooCommerce Subscriptions can be used for recurring vendor memberships.

Manage products, orders, and storefronts

Vendors can manage products and orders from a frontend dashboard. They can also view sales and order information, mark orders as shipped, and create and manage coupons. Administrators control registration and product publishing, pick which product types vendors can post, and set what customer information vendors may see. Product forms can display or require specific fields.

Storefronts support templates and multiple styles. Administrators can use vendor-specific shortcodes and place 10 vendor widgets in theme widget areas. Vendors can add store notices, set vacation mode and opening hours, and manage store details such as social profiles.

Connect payment and shipping tools

WooCommerce-compatible payment gateways can collect customer payments. Listed options for paying vendor commissions include Stripe Connect, MangoPay for WooCommerce, Escrow for WooCommerce, Mollie Connect for WC Vendors, and Square Payment Gateway for WC Vendors. Compatible shipping tools include multi-carrier, table-rate, FedEx, and UPS options. Check compatibility for the extensions you plan to use.

Install and configure

Install WooCommerce and WC Vendors, then install and activate WC Vendors Pro. Follow the setup wizard to configure the marketplace, vendor registration, commissions, product publishing, and customer information options. Create membership plans if needed, set storefront options, and connect suitable payment and shipping integrations before inviting vendors.
