For Customers

1. What is a multi-vendor marketplace? It is a platform where multiple independent sellers (vendors) list and sell their products in one place, similar to an online mall.
2. How do I know who I am buying from? The seller’s name and rating are usually displayed on the product page under a “Sold by” or “Store Name” section.
3. Can I buy items from different sellers in one order? Yes, you can add items from multiple vendors to one cart, though they may arrive in separate packages .
4. How is shipping calculated for multiple vendors? Shipping is typically calculated per vendor based on their location and chosen courier.
5. How do I track my order? You will receive tracking numbers for each vendor’s package via your account dashboard or email.
6. What is the return policy? While the platform has a general policy, individual vendors may have specific terms regarding returns and exchanges.
7. How do I contact a specific seller? Use the “Contact Seller” or “Ask a Question” button on the vendor’s storefront or product page.
8. Are the products on this site authentic? Most platforms have a verification process, but customers should check vendor ratings and reviews for extra assurance. 

For Vendors

9. How do I become a seller? Register via the “Vendor” page, submit your business documents, and wait for account approval.
10. What are the selling fees? Most platforms charge a registration fee, a monthly subscription, and/or a percentage commission on each sale .
11. How and when do I get paid? Payments are usually disbursed to your linked bank account after a “holding period” (to account for returns) once the order is marked as delivered.
12. Who handles shipping and logistics? This depends on the model: either the vendor ships directly, or the platform collects and delivers the item.
13. Can I customize my digital storefront? Yes, most multi-vendor sites allow you to upload a logo, banner, and store description.
14. How do I list my products? Vendors use a dedicated “Seller Dashboard” to upload product titles, images, descriptions, and stock levels.
15. What happens if a customer opens a dispute? The platform’s mediation team reviews evidence from both parties to reach a fair resolution.
