Stores and checkout

One cart, many sellers, and your cut of every sale.

Buyers fill one cart from several sellers and pay once by card. Each seller is paid their part through Stripe, minus the commission you set, and every seller gets a storefront of their own.

  • Each seller paid through Stripe, at once or when the buyer confirms delivery
  • A reminder email to signed-in buyers who leave items in their cart

Questions

Questions people ask

Which plan includes the cart and storefronts?

The Marketplace plan, with the Nova theme new sites start with. Every part is switched on by you, one by one.

How do sellers get paid?

Through Stripe Connect: each seller sets up a Stripe payout account from their account on your site, and their part of each sale is sent to it, at once or once the buyer confirms delivery.

Can buyers check out without an account?

Buyers can fill a cart without signing in, and sign in or sign up to pay. A single item bought with Buy now can be paid as a guest.

Can I take a different commission from some sellers?

Yes. Set a rate per category or per seller, or a rate in each seller plan. A seller's own rate comes first, then their plan's, then the category's, then your site's rate.

Do I need the cart to take a commission?

No. With Stripe Connect, your commission is taken on Buy now sales too, and on paid bookings.

What do sellers see?

Their store settings, options, shipping, coupons, a sales dashboard with their orders, refunds, payouts and your commission, and the people on their store team.
