Could you provide a detailed overview of the transaction charge feature and its options in the Multi-Vendor app?

Transaction Charge Type – Here’s how the Transaction Charge Type feature works in the Webkul Multi-Vendor Marketplace app.

1. Enabling Transaction Charges

   • Go to MVM Admin Panel >> Configuration >> Product Configuration.
   • Enable the “Transaction Charges” option.

2. Who Pays the Transaction Charge

   • Under “Transaction Charges to be paid By”, choose whether the Admin or the Seller bears the transaction charge.

3. Percentage or Fixed Amount

   • You can set the transaction charge as a percentage (e.g., 10%) or a fixed amount (e.g., $5).

4. Charge Calculation: Seller-wise, Product-wise, or Order-wise

   • Seller-wise: The transaction charge is calculated for each seller separately in multi-seller orders.
   • Product-wise: The transaction charge applies to each product in the order.
   • Order-wise: The transaction charge applies once per entire order, regardless of how many products or sellers are involved.

5. Impact of “Display Sales Price”

   • If “Display Sales Price” is ON:
     • The admin always bears the transaction charge, while the seller bears only the handling charge (if any).
   • If “Display Sales Price” is OFF:
     • You can configure whether the seller bears the transaction charge (e.g., product-wise or order-wise).

Example

• Product A: $100

• Commission: 10%

• Transaction Charge: 10%

• Case 1 (Admin Pays):

  • Admin earns $10 from commission but also covers the 10% transaction charge. The seller receives $90.

• Case 2 (Seller Pays):

  • Admin earns $20 ($10 commission + $10 transaction charge). The seller’s share is $80.
