Multi-vendor capabilities are only available in Spree Enterprise Edition.
Running a marketplace means juggling relationships with potentially dozens or hundreds of vendors — each at a different stage of onboarding, with their own product catalogs, revenue trajectories, and operational needs. The Vendors tab is mission control for all of it. From a single page, you can see the status of every vendor, dig into any individual vendor’s full profile to manage their branding, commission rate, payout schedule, and storefront policies, and review their products, orders, and team in detail. Whether you’re approving a new vendor that just finished onboarding, troubleshooting one that’s stuck, or pulling lifetime revenue figures for a top performer, this is where it all happens. To get started, navigate to Vendors in the admin dashboard.
