🚀 WooCommerce Vendor Dashboard & AI Marketplace Suite

The biggest threat to a new marketplace is low-quality vendor listings. The WCFM AI Suite addon solves this by equipping your vendors with an AI Commerce & Content Studio directly inside their dashboard, ensuring every product page looks premium.

Unlock with the WCFM AI Suite addon:

  • AI Copywriting & Image Enhancement: Vendors can generate SEO-optimized product descriptions from simple prompts or product photos, and instantly upgrade amateur images by removing backgrounds or adding professional lifestyle scenes.
  • Monetize AI with the Credit Economy: Worried about unpredictable API costs? Set monthly free AI credit allowances per vendor membership tier, and sell extra AI credit packs via automated WooCommerce checkout. Turn your vendors’ AI usage into a brand-new, high-margin revenue stream for your marketplace.
  • AI Insights Dashboard: Track marketplace-wide AI adoption, monitor credit revenue, and see exactly which AI-assisted products are driving the most sales.

💰 Multi-Vendor Commissions & Marketplace Financials

WCFM provides unparalleled control over your marketplace revenue stream, ensuring accurate payouts and pristine records.

  • Hyper-Flexible Commission Rules: Configure commissions by Fixed, Percentage, Percent + Fixed, Vendor Sales, Product Price, Category, or specific Membership tiers. Override globally, per vendor, or per product. Read more…
  • Stripe Split Pay (SCA Compliant): Automatically split payments between your marketplace platform and your vendors at checkout. Support for 3D Secure, cross-border payments, and direct charges.
  • Global Payout Gateways: Extensive payout support including PayPal Direct Pay – Marketplace API, PayFast, PayStack, MangoPay, Skrill, Bank Transfer, and Cash. Plus, a developer-friendly API to build custom gateways (Developer’s guide).
  • Versatile Withdrawal Options: Empower your vendors with flexible, stress-free payout controls – Schedule Withdrawal, Withdrawal by Order Status, or Manual Withdrawal.
  • The Ledger Book & Reverse Withdrawal: Maintain pristine financial records. Automatically deduct platform fees, shipping taxes, and handle “Reverse Withdrawals” when vendors owe you money (e.g., for platform-paid shipping labels, ads, or refunds).

📦 Multi-Seller Shipping & Vendor Store Management

Equip your vendors with advanced tools to manage fulfillment, logistics, and build buyer trust.

  • Next-Gen Vendor Shipping Engine: Support for Zone, Country, Weight-based, and Distance Rate Shipping. Vendors can configure complex shipping classes, local pickup, and postcode restrictions directly from their frontend dashboard. Read more…
  • Single Product Multi-Vendor (SPMV): Allow multiple sellers to offer the exact same product. Buyers see a “More Offers” tab to compare price and vendor ratings, creating a competitive, Amazon-style marketplace experience.
  • Comprehensive Refund Module: Customers can request partial or full refunds, including tax and shipping. Admins can approve, reject, or negotiate, with commissions automatically recalculated and ledger books updated in real-time.
  • Vendor Verification & Trust: Build buyer confidence with ID verification modules, store reviews, and badge systems.

🏪 Premium Vendor Storefronts & WooCommerce Integration

Provide your vendors with beautiful, conversion-optimized storefronts that empower them to sell more.

  • Beautiful Marketplace Store Pages: Radius search, city/zip filters, category filtering, and interactive maps (Google Maps & OpenStreetMap) for local vendor discovery. Read more…
  • Store Hours & Vacation Mode: Vendors can set complex opening hours, daily time slots, and vacation modes that automatically hide “Add to Cart” buttons.
  • Store Invoices & Packing Slips: Vendors can generate professional, branded PDF invoices and packing slips for their orders.
  • Live Chat & Support Tickets: Reduce admin bottleneck. Vendors can chat directly with customers via integrated Live Chat and manage their own support tickets.

🛠️ Built for Agencies & Developers

WCFM Marketplace is built with a flexible, extensible architecture designed to adapt to your custom requirements.

  • Elementor Integration: Build custom, pixel-perfect vendor store pages using Elementor.
  • REST API Ready: Connect your marketplace to external CRMs, ERPs, or build a custom headless frontend.

Changelog

Security release: fixes stored XSS in the store list shortcodes (store search and radius filter attributes) and in the store video banner. Update recommended for all sites.

Below is a record of updates, features, and fixes across all releases.

3.8.3

Updated – 30/08/2026

  • Fixed – Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the store banner and store list card, where a vendor’s video banner value was rendered without escaping whenever it was not a valid YouTube URL.
  • Security – Store video banners now render an embed only for a valid YouTube URL and no longer output the raw banner value.
  • Fixed – Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the [wcfm_stores] and [wcfm_stores_map] shortcodes, where a contributor-level user could inject executable HTML through the store search and radius filter attributes, reported by Ananda Dhakal (Patchstack), Credit goes to Ananda Dhakal for identifying this issue.
  • Security – The store list search form now escapes the search query along with the radius range and coordinate values before they are rendered into the search form markup.

3.8.2

Updated – 25/08/2026

  • Fixed – Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the [wcfm_store_info] shortcode, where a contributor-level user could break out of a class attribute through the data, icon and label attributes and inject executable HTML, reported by Ananda Dhakal (Patchstack), Credit goes to Ananda Dhakal for identifying this issue.
  • Security – The [wcfm_store_info] shortcode now escapes the data, icon and label attribute values before they are rendered into the store-info markup.
  • Fixed – Unauthenticated SQL Injection vulnerability in the distance-based shipping method, where a customer’s checkout location coordinates were used in the store-distance query without numeric validation, reported by Ivaylo Atanassov, Credit goes to Ivaylo Atanassov for identifying this issue.
  • Security – Store-distance calculations now force all incoming location coordinates to numeric values before they are used in any database query.
  • Fixed – Unauthenticated refund request creation on guest-checkout orders, where an anonymous visitor could submit refund requests against any guest order, reported by Shikhali Jamalzade, Credit goes to Shikhali Jamalzade for identifying this issue.
  • Security – Refund request submissions now require an authenticated customer and verify order ownership with a strict match.
  • Enhance – WooCommerce 11.0+ compatibility check added

3.8.1

Updated – 30/07/2026

  • Fixed – Insecure Direct Object Reference allowing a vendor to unapprove or delete another vendor’s store review, reported by Mustafa Ahmed, Credit goes to Mustafa Ahmed for identifying this issue.
  • Security – Strengthened product review status updates to prevent cross-vendor manipulation.

3.8.0

Updated – 28/07/2026

  • Feature – Stripe Split Pay: brand-new payment engine built on Stripe’s Payment Element and PaymentIntents, with up-to-date SCA / 3D Secure authentication for marketplace split payments.
  • Feature – Stripe Split Pay: full multi-vendor cart support, including Direct and Destination charge flows across sellers within a single order.
  • Feature – Stripe Split Pay: order-pay support for pay-for-order links and customer payment retries on the modern engine.
  • Feature – Stripe Split Pay: new “Stripe Split Pay Status” diagnostics panel to verify connection and configuration from the dashboard.
  • Enhance – Stripe Split Pay: bundled Stripe PHP SDK updated to v20.2.1 with a pinned API version for consistent, predictable behaviour.
  • Enhance – Stripe Split Pay: hardened the existing (legacy) payment path with typed error handling, idempotency keys, and a kill-switch to force the legacy engine when required.
  • Enhance – Stripe Split Pay: checkout pre-flight validation now flags vendor onboarding or connection issues before an order is placed.
  • Enhance – Added a developer filter to customise the store-list card output.
  • Enhance – Tagged store-list vendor queries with a context marker for more reliable third-party query targeting.
  • Enhance – Themes and page builders can still supply their own vendor store layout, and WCFM now points it out in the admin when something takes the store page over, so an unintended change does not go unnoticed. Integrations should use the new “wcfmmp_store_template” filter; “wcfmmp_enforce_store_template” keeps WCFM’s own template where a takeover is unwanted.
  • Fix – Stripe Split Pay: corrected application-fee and refund handling for Direct and Destination charges so vendor and admin shares always reconcile.
  • Fix – Vendor store pages triggered a fatal error alongside Divi (“Argument #1 ($template) must be of type string, null given”), because the store page was rendered without handing a template path back to WordPress.
  • Fix – Divi Theme Builder support on store pages now verifies each Divi function before calling it, so Divi releases that move or rename them no longer break the store page.
  • Fix – Store URLs that do not resolve to a visitable store (unknown slug, non-vendor user, or an offline store) now return a proper HTTP 404 with the theme’s 404 page, instead of a blank page.

3.7.4

Updated – 27/06/2026

  • Security – Patched a Stored XSS vulnerability in the Media Manager.
  • Security – Strengthened vendor shipping zone authorization to prevent cross-vendor shipping setting manipulation.
  • Enhance – WordPress 7.0 compatibility check added.
  • Enhance – WooCommerce 10.9.1 compatibility check added.
  • Fix – Store Featured Products widget: “Hide out of stock items” no longer overrides the widget’s product visibility query.

3.7.3

Updated – 07/05/2026

  • Security – Patched a SQL Injection vulnerability in the Reviews Dashboard.
  • Security – Patched an unauthenticated SQL Injection vulnerability in the Store List Map integration.
