Must-Have Features For Multi-Vendor Marketplace App
Besides all other regular eCommerce features a multi-vendor marketplace app may need additional must-have features. A few of them are per following:
1. Vendor Page
A vendor page is an essential feature for any multi-vendor mobile app. With the help of this page, the vendor can manage their inventory, product descriptions, and digital displays. Vendors also can manage their promo codes and product discounts on this page. This vendor page should be nice and easily manageable. It will be much better if a proper dashboard is provided with everything nicely explained so that the vendor can understand everything about his business, there and there itself.
2. Buyer Page
Every buyer is distinct so are their choices. If you want higher user engagement and a seamless user experience then it is always better to personalize every buyer’s pages according to their preferences. The buyer page should be highly responsive and help buyers toggle between various products, compare prices, and choose various alternatives. Make sure these pages are highly attractive as the amount of time spent by any user on these pages directly defines the success of your business.
3. Push Up Notifications
Push-up notifications act as a reminder to make customers engage in shopping activities. But the most important thing about these push-up notifications is that they should be designed in a way that they will create interest in the customer’s mind and will not irritate them. For that reason personalizing these notifications by considering customers’ choices is of utmost importance.
4. Reviews and Ratings
Reviews and ratings act as a catalyst to make buying decisions for the customers. A dedicated page to display reviews and ratings will enhance customer experience. This feature helps buyers and sellers to interact with each other and also to gain trust in each other.
