Vendor Add-on for BookPro Plugin WordPress

Vendor is an add–on for the BookPro plugin that turns your single booking website into a full multi–vendor marketplace. Providers register from the front end, get approved by you and then manage their own services, staff and schedules – while you oversee the whole platform and earn commission on their bookings.

Important: This is an add–on and requires the BookPro plugin to be installed and activated.

Problems Solved

• One site, many providers. Instead of a single business, let dozens of independent salons, therapists or freelancers sell their services from the same website.
• Manual, risky onboarding. A front–end registration form with custom fields, reCAPTCHA and an approval workflow lets you vet every provider before they go live.
• Too much admin work. Each vendor manages their own services, staff and schedules, so you are no longer the bottleneck for every update.
• No marketplace revenue. Earn commission on every vendor booking and handle payouts, turning your booking site into a real income–generating platform.

Who Is This Add-on For?

• Entrepreneurs launching a beauty, wellness or service booking marketplace.
• Salon, spa and barber directories that list many independent providers.
• Multi–branch or franchise businesses with several locations.
• Studios and clinics that host freelance practitioners.

Key Benefits

• Scale into a marketplace. Grow from a single business into a platform with many vendors without changing plugins or rebuilding your site. BookPro handles the booking, Vendor handles the providers.
• Providers manage themselves. Every vendor gets their own dashboard to manage services, staff and availability, saving you hours of admin and keeping information accurate.
• Safe, controlled onboarding. Approve or reject each application, add custom registration fields and protect the form with reCAPTCHA, so only trusted providers join.
• New revenue stream. Set commissions on vendor bookings and process payouts, so your marketplace earns money on every transaction that flows through it.

How It Works

1. Provider registers. A new vendor fills in the front–end registration form, including any custom fields you define.
2. You approve. Review the application in the admin and approve or reject it.
3. Vendor sets up. Once approved, the vendor adds their services, staff and working schedules.
4. Customers book. Visitors book that vendor’s services through the normal BookPro flow.
5. You earn. Commission is calculated on each booking and payouts are handled through BookPro.
