Vendor page ​

Transparent marketplaces build trust in their marketplace thanks to their vendors. For this, we have made a vendor page that enables the marketplace to create a dedicated collection page for each vendor.

Vendor pages are publicly available with URLs following this template:https://{domain}/collections/{vendor-name}-{key}. Let's say your marketplace domain is https://ananature.com and your vendor name is Pineapple Rocket, then the vendor page URL will be https://ananature.com/collections/pineapple-rocket-1htdv. The key 1htdv at the end is a random string that ensures that collections do not conflict with existing collections.

Settings available for vendors ​

Vendors (and the marketplace), can customise the collection page description and image. Once turned on, the settings appear on the Settings page.

• The vendor page can be accessed by clicking on the link below the title. Note that it might take up to a minute to have your changes reflected on the live vendor page.
• image is the image used on the vendor page. Depending on the marketplace, the best format can be different. Try your image, open the vendor page, and iterate until your vendor page is looking good.
• description contains information that the vendor is willing to share. Some marketplaces will allow the vendor to share their contact whereas others would prevent it. You can use rich text formating by selecting the text such as links.

Customise vendor's page design ​

The marketplace might want to customise the vendor page design. In Shopify, a vendor page is a collection. Note that when this feature is turned on, it will create as many collections as vendors in Shopify.

Products are sorted by best selling first.

SEO ​

Vendor pages are SEO-friendly, Garnet sets the page SEO title and SEO description. You can customise the SEO by editing the collection template linked to the vendor pages.
