Who adds sellers

Add sellers to the store you already run

Your shoppers keep one storefront, one cart and one checkout.

  • A cycling shop adding parts brands

    Your riders already shop with you. Let the brands they ask about list their own parts, and carry a wider range without buying stock.

  • A craft market moving online

    Bring the makers from your weekend market into one shop on your domain. Each maker manages their own listings and orders.

  • A brand with approved resellers

    Several resellers can list the same item. Shoppers see who sells it before they add it to the cart.

Why add sellers

More products, a share of every sale

  1. Grow your range without buying stock

    Sellers list and manage their own products. Your catalog grows while the stock you buy stays the same.

  2. Earn on every seller sale

    Set the commission you keep from each seller, by rule. Each seller gets statements of their sales and your share.

  3. Keep the money on your own account

    Pay sellers through your own Stripe Connect or Adyen account. Stoily provides the software and never holds seller funds.

For your sellers

What your sellers get

Sellers join your marketplace, not Stoily. Each one gets three things.

  • An application page

    Sellers apply from a page on your storefront. Once you approve one, they get an invitation to set up their seller account.

  • A page on your storefront

    Every seller gets a page on your storefront with their products and profile, so shoppers can browse one seller at a time.

  • Their own seller portal

    Each seller gets a portal to manage listings, orders, earnings and messages.

Fees

What the marketplace costs

A percentage of your sellers' sales, set by your plan.

Stoily charges a percentage of the sales your third-party sellers make: 8% on Standard, 5% on Professional, 3% on Business and 1% on Enterprise. It is invoiced to you, and it is never deducted from your sellers' earnings.

Your own sales are never charged a percentage. Seller limits are 100 on Standard, 200 on Professional, 300 on Business and 1,000 on Enterprise.

When you switch the marketplace on, you accept the Marketplace Operator Terms. They set out who runs the marketplace and who pays whom.

Each seller accepts the Seller Agreement when they join your marketplace.
