Multi vendor marketplace software with one cart and your cut of every sale.
Yclas is multi vendor marketplace software for sites where many sellers sell to many buyers. Each seller gets a storefront, buyers fill one cart from several sellers and pay once, and Stripe pays every seller their part minus your commission. It runs on your own domain for a fixed monthly price, and Yclas takes nothing from the sales.

Multivendor marketplace platforms for small sellers in one trade.
Multi-vendor works best when many small sellers share one kind of buyer. These are the setups the cart, storefronts and payouts were built for.
A shop of their own inside your marketplace.
What a seller sets up and sees, from their account on your site. Sample sellers and sales on a demo site.
Several sellers in the cart, one card payment.
The cart groups items by seller, each group with its own shipping and total. The buyer pays once; each seller gets their own order. A refund or cancellation touches only that seller's part, and a seller's transfer is never mixed with another's.
- Kept for 30 days, even before the buyer signs in; buyers sign in to pay.
- Abandoned cart emails to signed-in buyers.
- Saved cards for the next checkout, kept by Stripe.
Multi vendor marketplace software that pays sellers for you.
Connect your Stripe account with Stripe Connect. Sellers set up their payout account with Stripe from your site, and on every sale Stripe sends them their share after your commission. You can pay them at once, or hold the money until the buyer confirms delivery.
- A percentage, a fixed fee, or both, on items only or on the whole sale.
- Other rates per category, per seller, or inside each seller plan.
- A service fee for buyers, up to 30%, if you want one.
- The sales report: gross sales, what you earned, your take rate, top sellers.
Sample sales on a demo site. Stripe charges its own fees.
Each vendor gets a shop page buyers can follow.
A store page shows the seller's banner, logo, rating and policies, with a search and categories of its own. Buyers follow stores and get one email a day with new listings. A Stores page lists every seller on your site.
- Away mode pauses sales with a message and a return date.
- Its own title and description for search engines, and a place in the sitemap.
The tools that make a second item go in the cart.
Sale prices with an end date, up to five quantity discounts, bundles of two to ten items at a set price or a percentage off, minimum orders, and coupons from sellers and from you.
An honest list before you choose.

How a multi-vendor marketplace earns.
A take rate on sales is the core. The others smooth out the months when sales are slow.
Prices are examples: you set your own, in your currency. Yclas takes no commission on what you earn. All the ways to make money →

What is multi vendor marketplace software?
Software for a site where several independent sellers list and sell to buyers, with storefronts, a shared checkout, payouts to each seller and a commission for the site owner. Hosted as a multi vendor website builder, it needs no server or code.
Which plan includes the multi vendor features?
The Marketplace plan ($149 a month), with the Nova theme. Buy now for single items, with stock and orders, starts on Professional.
Do I need Stripe?
For one payment split between sellers, yes: your own Stripe account with Stripe Connect. Without it, buyers can still pay you through other gateways and sellers withdraw their balance, which you pay out yourself.
Who handles refunds?
The seller or you, from the order. A refund on a Stripe sale takes back that seller's transfer and your fee on it, and touches no other seller in the cart.
Can sellers set their own shipping?
Yes. Each seller sets a price for the first item, each extra item, free shipping over an amount and prices for up to 60 countries.
Does Yclas take a cut?
No. Your commission is yours. Stripe charges its own payment fees.
Can a seller have staff?
Yes. Up to 10 people on a store team: staff edit listings, managers also mark sales as shipped. They never see messages, payouts or settings.
