Miscellaneous MultiVendorX Updates

Aside from the major MultiVendorX 2021 updates we’ve also introduced other changes to your favorite online marketplace software.  

Keep customers informed with the new ‘Follow’ feature

Feature Highlights:

  • Provide better communication between sellers and buyers with automatic notifications
  • Save money on marketing by automatically informing followers whenever a new product is added to a store

In addition to Vendor tabs appearing in a more organized, descriptive, and visually appealing manner, we’ve also included a new ‘Vendor follow’ feature. As the marketplace owner, you can toggle this feature on or off for selected sellers. What are the benefits of this new feature?

One of the greatest advantages of the ‘follow feature’ are automatic notifications. By following a specific seller, customers receive notifications whenever that seller uploads a new product or restock older items.

So imagine one of your vendors added a new item to their store. Instead of spending money marketing the product, they can take advantage of this feature, which automatically notifies all of the following customers. It’s free marketing at no extra cost and it allows sellers to maintain a constant communication with their target customers.

Easier Access to Membership Pages

Feature Highlights:

  • Easily access and create memberships services for sellers without hassle.

So you want to earn more from your sellers but don’t intend to overburden them with expenses? Subscription is possibly one of the best ways you can charge sellers for some extra facilities. Don’t believe us? Just ask Amazon. They have had great success with the FBA program which was still going strong back in 2020, showing no signs of slowing down.

Now as for the setup, creating membership used to be a nightmare. Older users are well-accustomed to the perils of searching for this particular feature. So we’ve taken the initiative to streamline the whole process for marketplace owners, both old and new, so that you can easily create subscription/membership pages.

We’ve replaced lengthy page creation processes with something more intuitive. Simply go to products, add a new page, scroll down, choose the product data and you’re done.

Simpler Recurring Payment Setups with Stripe

Feature Highlights:

  • Reliable and consistent revenue without the fear of late payments

Now setting up memberships is easy enough, but how do you follow up on payments? Running an online marketplace is a lot of work. The last thing you want to do is to follow-up on invoices, seekling for subscription payments from your sellers.

Wouldn’t it be great if you could automate the whole process? Well now you can get recurring payment services via Stripe. The new Webhook setting does a much better job at setting up recurring payments.

You don’t have to download Stripe and connect it to WooCommerce anymore. Simply provide the webhook and you’re good to go. It’s easier, faster and is more reliable than ever.

Feel free to read the MultiVendorX release notes for a complete breakdown of all the major changes and minor tweaks we’ve made to help you effortlessly run your online business. We are prepping MultiVendorX for the future of eCommerce. Optimized features, easier navigation, unnecessary code cleanups and much more.
