Hyperlocal Marketplace
An online marketplace where verified sellers list products and buyers are matched to the nearest seller that can deliver to their pincode, with integrated payments, courier booking, seller payouts and email, SMS and WhatsApp updates.
WeyBeeThe client wanted a national marketplace that works like a local one: independent sellers across India list products, and each order goes to the seller closest to the buyer. That needs seller verification, courier booking for every seller as a separate pickup point, and in-platform seller finance.
- Onboard and verify independent sellers, including KYC documents and bank checks.
- Match each buyer's pincode to the nearest seller that can deliver.
- Book couriers, print labels and track shipments for many sellers from one system.
- Handle commissions, seller ledgers, payouts, refunds and GST documents inside the platform.
WeyBee built the marketplace on Bagisto, an open-source commerce framework on Laravel, so the proven catalogue, cart, checkout and tax features came ready to use. The custom work went into marketplace logic: a customised multi-vendor module and three modules built for this client. Pincodes are geocoded and a distance calculation picks the nearest seller. Payments run through Razorpay and shipping through Shiprocket, with tracking webhooks feeding customer notifications. The platform has 28 modules that talk through internal events, plus a JWT REST API ready for mobile apps.
Multi-step signup with OTP, KYC uploads (tax IDs, certificates, brand authorisation) and bank IFSC checks; admin approval for sellers and products.
Buyers enter a pincode and see the nearest seller and courier availability.
Courier selection by speed, price or rating, tracking numbers, pickups, labels, manifests and tracking webhooks, with every seller as a separate pickup point.
Online payments with full and partial refunds, COD and bank transfer; PDF tax invoices, credit notes and debit notes.
Per-seller commission rates, seller ledgers, payout eligibility and payout history.
Sales charts, bulk product and offer updates, a price and commission calculator, vacation mode.
Simple, configurable, bundle, digital and bookable products (appointments, events, rentals, table reservations).
Price and cart rules, a Google Shopping product feed, logo watermarking, and around 40 email and 20 SMS/WhatsApp message types.
AI-ready by design.

The marketplace already holds sellers, catalogue, pincodes and orders. That is exactly the data AI needs to lift conversion and cut seller workload.
Sellers upload a photo; AI drafts the title, description, attributes and category.
Search that understands intent and recommends products from nearby sellers.
Predict delivery windows per pincode and courier from past shipments.
