WordPress Marketplace Theme FAQ
Common questions from people planning a multi-vendor marketplace.
A WordPress marketplace theme turns one website into a multi-vendor marketplace. Each seller registers, gets a storefront and dashboard, lists products and ships their own orders. You approve sellers, set the rules and take a commission on every sale.
Mainly from commission. You take a percentage, a fixed amount or both from each sale. You can add monthly seller plans, listing fees and paid featured spots. The theme is a one-time $99 and PremiumPress takes no cut, so every extra seller and sale improves your margin.
Yes. A site-wide default applies to everyone, and you can override it per category or per seller. Sellers see the commission deducted on each order line. Rates lock at the moment of sale, so changing a rule later only affects new orders.
Each seller's share of completed orders builds up as a balance. After the holding period you set, they request a withdrawal. You pay it by bank transfer or PayPal, then mark it paid in both ledgers. A minimum withdrawal amount avoids tiny transfers.
The buyer pays once. The order then splits into a sub-order per seller, showing only that seller's items, shipping and net earnings. Each sub-order has its own status and tracking, which the buyer follows from one account. A refund from one seller leaves the rest untouched.
Yes. Sellers can list physical products with stock and their own shipping, or digital files such as patterns, fonts and templates that buyers download after payment. One storefront can offer both. Download links stay in the buyer's account, so files can be downloaded again later.
You approve every seller application, and you can hold new products for review too. Later you can hide a listing, pause a storefront or remove a seller. Verified-buyer ratings show shoppers who is reliable, and buyer reports go straight to your moderation queue.
No. Seller registration, storefronts, the vendor dashboard, commission, order splitting and payouts are built into the theme. You avoid stacking a store plugin and multi-vendor add-ons that renew separately and must stay compatible. One product also means one support team for the whole marketplace.
Yes. The live demo runs the real theme, so you can browse its designs, seller storefronts and product pages before you buy. Open it from any Live Demo button on this page.
The price is $99, paid once. It includes 6 months of support and updates, free install and setup with video tutorials, unlimited installs on sites you own and a 14-day money-back guarantee. There is no monthly fee and no platform commission, so every seller fee you charge is yours.
