Hello!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We\u2019re proudly presenting our new big release\u2014CS-Cart and Multi-Vendor 4.5.1<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The new version\u2019s rock star is definitely Multi-Vendor<\/a><\/strong>. We\u2019ve upgraded it with an automatic payment distribution system\u2014PayPal Adaptive Payments<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Multi-Vendor is a perfect piece of software to open an online marketplace. We\u2019ll tell you why.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

So, Why Multi-Vendor?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

What is a marketplace? It\u2019s a common space where multiple independent sellers showcase their products. What is an online marketplace? It\u2019s the same thing but in the form of a big online store. The best example of an online marketplace is eBay.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Multi-Vendor works the same as eBay. You launch your online marketplace, invite sellers, and manage their activities. You don\u2019t even need to sell anything\u2014simply invite sellers to your marketplace, take commissions on their sales, and make money out of thin air.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We developed Multi-Vendor years ago. But it\u2019s really only now that we\u2019ve come to understand what a great product we created. We did some research and found that 1,300 marketplaces<\/strong> worldwide work on Multi-Vendor. Some of them have a huge number of products and sellers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Take ShopClues, a huge marketplace from India that has an unbelievable number of SKUs<\/a>\u201453,000,000<\/i>. The number of registered sellers is astonishing\u2014500,000<\/i>. Yet, this marketplace works pretty fast. Check it out (if you can\u2019t access it, open it through a VPN<\/a> as ShopClues is not available in some countries).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Another marketplace we are proud to support is Yumbles<\/a>. It offers yummy food, with each seller an independent food producer. This marketplace from the UK has 7,000 products<\/i>, 1,200 sellers<\/i>, and one of the most attractive storefronts<\/i> we\u2019ve ever seen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Often, the heart of a marketplace is an original idea. Keep America<\/a> is one such marketplace. The owner of this marketplace started out with the idea of selling only American-made products. When people shop in Keep America, they help to create jobs. This marketplace is well-known and trusted in the US and has been featured on more than 60 TV shows<\/i>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And there are many more!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When we tell you how Multi-Vendor is one of the best marketplace solutions, we\u2019re not exaggerating. In the research we did, we compared Multi-Vendor with similar solutions from competitors. See for yourself what we found:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But what makes Multi-Vendor 4.5.1 greater than ever is an automatic vendor payout system\u2014PayPal Adaptive Payments<\/strong>. Read on to learn more about its advantage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why You Need PayPal Adaptive in Multi-Vendor<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Say you have 1,000 vendors in your marketplace. Each of them sells hundreds of products every day. How to manage the money cycle?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Before Multi-Vendor 4.5.1 that could be a concern. You took all the income from vendor sales and paid out to vendors their share on a certain date. Imagine: you had to analyze the accounting records for all the vendor sales, calculate how much you should pay to each vendor, and find a way to transfer the money. Too much movement?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Not anymore.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Multi-Vendor 4.5.1 now features PayPal Adaptive Payments, which automatically divides each payment made by a customer between the vendor and the marketplace owner<\/strong>. No more manual calculations, no more manual transactions. Set up PayPal Adaptive once and forget about manual payouts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
