Our client wanted to launch a marketplace where independent vendors could list products, manage their own inventory, and receive payouts, without an off-the-shelf platform forcing tradeoffs on their business model.
The primary challenge was building vendor onboarding, per-vendor order and inventory management, and split payments in a way that scaled cleanly as vendor count grew.
Existing marketplace plugins covered basic listings but fell short on the split-payment and vendor-specific reporting the business model required.

Zyber Zing designed and built a custom multi-vendor marketplace tailored to how the client actually wanted vendors to operate.
Built with React on the frontend and a Node.js and PostgreSQL backend, the platform gives each vendor an independent catalog and order queue.
A dedicated split-payments service automates payouts between the platform and vendors, removing the manual reconciliation that off-the-shelf plugins would have required.
Catalog, orders, and payouts run as separate services, so onboarding new vendors or adding features does not put the core storefront at risk.
