3. Drupal Commerce
●
no concept of vendors / stores
●
payment methods enabled and configures site-wide
●
one checkout = one order

4. Drupal Commerce + Commerce Marketplace
●
vendors: new commerce_store entity type
●
for each store / store owner:
– custom stores / products / orders views in My account
– custom payment method management / configuration
●
one checkout = multiple orders, multiple payments*
– orders grouped by new order_group property
– order split by store + other selected fields
– new marketplace checkout pages / panes

5. Marketplace payments: possible flows
●
one receiver:
– single simple payment
●
multiple receivers:
– parallel payment
– chained payment
– multiple simple payments

6. Payment flows: Single simple payment
single payment
to a single receiver
Scenario:
●
a single payment for one or multiple items from one vendor (store)
●
multiple vendors - payment sent to main store (marketplace)
Conditions:
●
possible in all cases when a customer buys from one vendor (store)
only

7. Payment flows: Parallel payments
payment
from one sender
split directly
amongst multiple
receivers

8. Payment flows: Parallel payments (cont'd)
Scenario:
●
from customer perspective: a single payment for multiple items from
multiple vendors (stores) – enter credit card/any other details only once
●
from marketplace perspective: multiple payments sent from customer
directly to multiple vendors (store owners)
Conditions:
●
the customer buys from more than one vendor (store) during one
transaction
●
all stores the customer buys from during this transaction support the
same payment method which implements parallel payments

9. Payment flows: Chained payments
payment
from one sender
split indirectly
amongst multiple
receivers

10. Payment flows: Chained payments (cont'd)
Scenario & conditions:
●
almost the same as for parallel payments
●
the only difference - payments from customer are sent indirectly to
multiple vendors, with marketplace in-between being the primary
receiver
Drawbacks:
●
possible issues for marketplace owner:
●
complaints
●
disputes
●
higher fees
●
tax issues

11. Payment flows: Multiple simple payments
multiple payments
from one sender
directly to
multiple receivers

12. Payment flows: Multiple simple payments (cont'd)
Scenario:
●
from customer perspective: multiple payments for multiple items from
multiple vendors (stores) – enter credit card/any other details multiple
times
●
from marketplace perspective: multiple single payments sent from
customer directly to multiple vendors (store owners)
Conditions:
●
the customer buys from more than one vendor (store) during one
transaction
●
all stores the customer buys from during this transaction do not
support the same payment method which implements chained
payments
