User Experience Optimization

One important factor when designing an effective user flow in any websites is to make it as easy and convenient as possible for your users to do any actions on site, from joining to become a member, to making further transactions. That’s what we are optimizing in MarketEngine.

Sell anything. Fast and easy.

For sellers, they can easily submit listings for any services from sale, contact to rental. Each seller has his own profile page to introduce his talents and showcase listings on site. Product sale is certainly the most popular listing type, in which sellers offer a product for sale and buyers pay to own that product.

A successful marketplace model must understand market demands and be able to offer ultimate solutions. In fact, on a marketplace, it’s not always the case that service’s price is publicly posted, but requires deeper conversation and negotiation between sellers and buyers before closing any deals. Therefore, Inquiry section  is built into MarketEngine to match such need. Products/services are displayed on site as normal, interested buyers could contact sellers to have more details about the products.    

In Pro version, rental listing type will be available to let your users offer products/services for rent.

 

Quick search. And secure checkout.

For buyers, the process from searching for a product/service to making the purchase decision is also optimized.

Particularly, search tools to support users include the search box, filtering by categories, by listing types and by price range, the sorting by price or by newest order, and many more to come in updated versions to provide users with the most relevant results to their needs.

Next, listing detail page aims to create an impressive look, providing all information needed for the user to decide to proceed to checkout. Ratings and reviews from previous buyers are seamlessly displayed under each listing to increase the credibility of the seller as well as the quality of that product/service. Moreover, the hassle of paying is minimized to 3 steps with fast speed, smooth flow, and secure PayPal gateway.

 

Clean and modern design

People use plugins to extend functionality or add new features to their websites. Technically speaking, a plugin should be built to run well in any themes. Thus, it’s essential that the plugin’s design retain its minimal and flexible nature. Fortunately, minimal design is the style we have always followed and applied in our products, and MarketEngine is no exception. Built with a basic user interface, MarketEngine is good to go with almost all standard WordPress themes. All are beautiful, impressive but still neat and clean everytime, everywhere.

Elegantly responsive

Another point you definitely need in a great design is a responsive look on any screen size. The mobile era is rising, thus your site really needs to look beautiful whether on desktop, tablet or mobile.

 

Best performance on ZeroEngine Theme

What’s more? There’s an issue that keeps us awake is the integration between plugin and theme, whether it looks good on this theme, what if it doesn’t have the best style running on that theme, etc. We kept asking all these questions and finally decided to make ZeroEngine WordPress Theme to show you the best performance of MarketEngine. ZeroEngine Theme is also the foundation for our developments to make other great themes supporting MarketEngine.

 

Manage every move anywhere, anytime

Last but not least is the ability for users to get notified and track the order as it goes, as well as your complete control of the plugin running on your site.

Instant notifications. Order tracking by status.

All important notifications from when the order is made until when the order is completed are notified to related people via emails to make sure no activities are missed.

Also, users always stay on top of new changes made to their transactions. There’s a section in user profiles listing all the transactions made, and orders received. All can be filtered by keyword, by date and by status. Users could know what’s going on with the transactions by viewing the status (Pending, Completed, Disputed, Resolved, and Closed).

 

Admin dashboard management

In MarketEngine Dashboard, you are free to adjust the settings to make it suitable for your marketplace. Three main settings sections include Marketplace, Payment Gateway and Pages.

PayPal Adaptive is integrated to handle all payments. Upon a payment is made, the money will be sent to seller, and commission fee is transferred to your account. Input your PayPal Adaptive API, and set the commission rate (by percentage), then you’re ready to start accepting payments.
