Set up a Marketplace
Who can do this:
- Anyone with Marketplace, MP Marketplace, and MP Vendors permissions
After you've added your Vendors and their Offers, you're ready to build one or more Marketplaces. As shown in this diagram, you can mix and match Vendors between Marketplaces.
If you have Offers for different employee groups within the same Vendor, create a separate Marketplace for each employee group.
To open a new Marketplace:
1. Go to Marketplace ➤ Marketplaces and click Add.
- This opens a New Marketplace window.
Set up how you want your Marketplace to appear and choose your Vendors.
To set up a Marketplace:
1. Open a new Marketplace and give it a name, icon, and optional background image.
2. By default, Select vendor is already selected. Keep this selected.
3. In the Add vendors section:
- Tick the Vendors you want to include.
- Tick Show inherited to access Vendors above your admin level.
- Unselect Show inherited to access the Vendors at your level.
All offers tied to the selected Vendors will appear in the Marketplace.
Why am I not seeing some Vendors?
You might not see the Vendors you expected, if:
- The Vendors were assigned to specific Groups or User tags. If so, only their designated admin and the top-level admin will be able to access them.
- You lack the MP Vendors (visible) permission.
4. If you want, select Group vendors into categories.
- This organizes your Vendors into categories, aligning with those you assigned to your offers. This prevents you from being able to manually sort them.
5. Tick Featured to bump a particular Vendor to the top of the list.
- In a featured Vendor, the Vendor's full blurb is included in the menu, below the tagline.
6. Optionally, tick Lowercase title fonts. If unselected, the default is uppercase.
7. Fill in the remaining common sections and click Save.
The Marketplace is published according to the dates you selected.
