After testing multiple apps, Garnet is the best marketplace app we have used. With their expertise, they've created an intuitive and simple solution (for us and vendors). Garnet is constantly improving their offering, releasing new features and their customer service is some of the best we have received.
Garnet was a breath of fresh air after struggling to get Webkul and other marketplace technologies set up. Garnet is incredibly easy to use for both me as the store owner and my vendors. It's getting new features nearly every week and constantly improving. So glad I found this app!
Garnet Marketplace is a new app but Francois is constantly updating and improving features. His customer service and integration support is next level. He responds to emails quickly and works closely with you to ensure the app is meeting your specific needs. The app is much simpler to set up and easier to navigate (for both ourselves and our vendors) than other marketplace apps we had trialled.

Got questions about B2C marketplace software? We've got answers!
Ask a QuestionIf you want a low-investment, fast-to-launch marketplace, the combination of Shopify + a multi-vendor marketplace app is the most efficient option. It is robust, scalable, quick to deploy, and significantly more affordable than building a marketplace from scratch.
After testing most multi-vendor solutions on the market, we realized that many tools offer features and attractive pricing, but very few are built from a real marketplace operator's perspective. Vendor experience, admin workflows, and real human support are often missing.
That gap is exactly why Garnet was created.
From a technical standpoint, many founders launch their B2C marketplace in less than a few weeks using Shopify and Garnet. Most of the setup is handled directly by you, so timelines mainly depend on how much time you can dedicate. Of course, we help you all along the way.
For more complex marketplaces requiring advanced customization or integrations, the setup can take a few weeks to a few months.
To get started, you should consider domain registration, Shopify subscription, Garnet Marketplace subscription. These are monthly or annual costs, which makes launching a marketplace affordable if you don't need heavy customization.
This approach is ideal for testing a concept without investing tens of thousands upfront.
Once the marketplace is set up, additional costs may include marketing and advertising to drive traffic and acquire customers.
Yes. Garnet offers a white-label marketplace feature that allows you to fully customize the vendor portal and marketplace interface to match your brand (e.g., colors, logo, language, layout) without any coding.
No. Garnet is built to scale. We have clients with hundreds of thousands of products on the platform.
This is the core. Customers place all products into a single cart and complete checkout through Shopify's payment system. Garnet then automatically splits the order by vendor and lets you decide when vendors are paid (e.g. immediately, after delivery, once the refund period has ended).
