Marketplaces built whole. Onboarding to payout.
Marketplaces are 60% the visible product and 40% trust + ops infrastructure that nobody sees. Most platforms ship the front and break the back. BusinessPress gives you both — vendor onboarding, KYC, escrow, multi-vendor cart, commission splits, dispute resolution, payouts — all on one ledger your AI and ops team can read.
The friction your team is already paying for.
These pages are persona-specific because the platform is broad. The pattern is the same: too many tools, too many syncs, and no single operating record.
Vendor onboarding is manual
KYC over email, contracts in Google Docs, payout setup over Slack. Onboarding 100 vendors takes a quarter you don't have.
Payouts in spreadsheets
Commission math in Sheets, manual Stripe payouts every Friday, vendors emailing about missing transfers. Operations becomes finance becomes therapy.
Disputes burn the team
No escrow, no built-in mediation. Every refund request becomes a multi-day Slack thread. Trust erodes on both sides.
The pieces that stop acting like separate tools.
BusinessPress keeps CMS, CRM, commerce, AI, permissions, and operations on one Laravel/Postgres foundation. Every module can see the same customer, order, page, and workflow context.
Self-serve vendor onboarding
Vendors apply, complete KYC, sign agreements, set up payouts — all in your portal. Operator approval queue. Hours, not weeks.
Escrow built-in
Funds held in escrow until delivery confirmation. Configurable hold periods. Dispute-aware release rules. No third-party escrow service.
Multi-vendor cart
Buyer adds items from 5 vendors → one checkout. Commission splits, separate fulfillment per vendor, unified return flows.
Disputes & resolution
Buyer or vendor opens a dispute. Built-in mediation flow with evidence upload. Operator decisions write to the ledger. Audit trail forever.
Automated payouts
Per-vendor payout schedules. Commissions, fees, taxes calculated correctly. Stripe Connect, Adyen MarketPay, or your bank.
Per-vendor storefronts
Vendors get a branded sub-page with their products, ratings, policies. Their own dashboard for orders, inventory, payouts.
What changes during a normal week.
The value is not another dashboard. It is the daily workflow getting shorter because the platform already knows what happened upstream.
01
Vendor applies
Self-serve flow. KYC, payout setup, terms acceptance. Lands in your operator queue with all docs attached.
02
Buyer orders
Cart spans 4 vendors. Single checkout. Funds go into escrow. Each vendor sees only their slice of the order.
03
Delivery confirmed
Buyer confirms or auto-confirm period elapses. Escrow releases. Commission split lands in your account. Vendor portion queued for next payout.
04
Dispute (if needed)
Either side opens a dispute. Evidence uploaded. Operator reviews. Decision writes to the ledger. Funds release accordingly. Done.
One platform, fewer handoffs.
This is the part buyers feel after launch: fewer exports, fewer workarounds, and a cleaner path from signal to action.
Pages, customers, orders, tasks, and AI actions write to the same platform memory.
Start from a production template, then tailor content, data, payments, and roles.
Use Stripe and the processors you trust. BusinessPress is not another tax on sales.
We tried Sharetribe and three custom builds before BusinessPress. The escrow + dispute logic alone saved us six months of engineering. We launched with 200 vendors in our first quarter.
Marketplace templates
Production-ready marketplaces — vendor portals, buyer flows, ops dashboards.
The questions teams ask before they switch.
Different chair, same platform.
Explore the same product through another team, business model, or operating constraint.
Build the marketplace, not the marketplace plumbing.
Vendor portal, escrow, payouts, disputes — wired in. Ship months faster.
