📖 Long Detailed Description

The Multi Vendor Add-on for BookPro Plugin (WordPress v1.0.0) is designed for businesses, agencies, and entrepreneurs who want to transform their booking platform into a scalable multi-vendor ecosystem. Instead of offering only your own services, you can now empower multiple independent vendors to list, manage, and sell their own bookable services under one marketplace.

Whether you’re running a beauty salon with multiple stylists, a fitness hub with trainers, an online tutoring academy, or even a marketplace for event hosts, photographers, and freelancers, this add-on provides the infrastructure you need to manage it all.

Once installed, vendors can register through a simple onboarding process, build their vendor profile pages, and start adding their services with custom prices, schedules, and durations. From the vendor dashboard, they can keep track of their earnings, see upcoming bookings, and manage customer communication.

As the site owner, you maintain full control. You decide whether vendor sign-ups are automatic or require approval. You configure commission structures — either globally for all vendors or tailored individually. You also control payouts: process them manually, on-demand, or schedule automated payouts based on completed bookings.

Customers will enjoy the same smooth booking process they already know from BookPro, but now with the benefit of choosing from a wide variety of vendors. The system ensures fair attribution of bookings and payments to the correct vendor, while still keeping your business at the center of the marketplace.

The add-on is developer-friendly, offering hooks and filters to extend functionality. That means you can integrate vendor reviews, advanced reporting, marketplace search, or even connect it with third-party plugins for payments, marketing, and analytics.

In short, this add-on gives you the tools to scale from a single booking site to a full multi-vendor marketplace, opening the doors to more services, more vendors, and more revenue opportunities.
