25 Feb - Vendor page approval revamp

Following the product page approval revamp, the vendor page only needs to be approved once as well. We took this opportunity to improve the design and make it the interface nicer and similar to the product page.

Here what changed:

  1. The vendor page only needs to be approved once,
  2. The vendor page is now more compact and easier to read,
  3. There is no more saving state before approval. What is on Garnet is always up to date with Shopify.
  4. More vendor fields are now available. They are now as flexible as product specifications.

The Garnet Team did an incredible job in providing a smoother experience for live shipping rates to your vendors.

Vendors only need to set their warehouse address and product size and all shipping rates will be automatically computed using your preferred third-party logistics providers.

Live shipping rate demo

We worked closely with two marketplaces to have this feature live and it brings a competitive advantage to their businesses as the rates are on average 1.7x cheaper.
