Stallwren: a multi-vendor marketplace for Shopify makers

For makers markets, craft co-ops and local-goods shops. Makers apply and get their own vendor page: they add products, ship their own orders and see their earnings. You approve every product, take your commission and pay them.

What it does

• Vendor pages, no staff accounts: each maker signs in with a one-time link sent to their email. On a phone or a laptop they add products with photos, update stock, see their orders and download statements.
• You approve everything: new products and changes wait for you, with the photos and a before/after view of exactly what changed. Approve and it becomes a normal Shopify product with the maker in its Vendor field.
• Orders split by vendor: each maker sees only their own items and gets an email. If you let makers ship, they see the ship-to address for their own unshipped items, print a packing slip and add tracking; Shopify emails the buyer.
• Commission and earnings: a percentage plus an optional fee per item, set for the whole shop, a maker or a single product. Refunds and cancellations come off exactly; tax and shipping stay with you.
• Payouts and statements: earnings wait for your return window, then you pay makers your usual way and record it. A PayPal bulk-payment file, monthly PDF and CSV statements, booth fees and credits as adjustments.
• Maker pages on your store: a maker directory, a page per maker with their story and products, an application form, and Sold by, Maker directory and Become a vendor blocks for your theme.

Private by design

Stallwren moves no money and never stores a buyer's name, email, phone or address. When makers ship their own orders, the ship-to address is read from Shopify only while their items are unshipped and is never saved. No analytics, tracking or ads. Read the privacy policy and terms.
