Marketspread has several ways to charge your vendors — fees on their
application, fees per booth, fees based on their sales, and more. Find the
situation closest to yours below to see how to set it up.

I have application fees.

1. Open Event Configuration, then Applications, and edit the application you want.

   

2. Scroll down to Application and Approval Fees and click Add fee.

   

3. Choose Application as the type. You can add a different fee for each vendor type.

   

I have fees for vendors when they are approved into a market.

1. Click Add fee under Application and Approval Fees on your application, and choose Approval as the type instead. Add as many as you need.

   

2. Click Approve on the vendor's application.

   

3. In the Approve Application window, uncheck any approval fees you don't want to charge this vendor, then click Approve again — the vendor gets an invoice for the ones left checked.

What ways can vendors pay me?

You can set up your market to accept any type of payment method you want. Open Settings, then Payment Methods, to turn on cash, check or credit and debit, or add a custom method. Cash, check and custom methods have to be reconciled by you — mark the invoice paid once the vendor has actually paid. Credit and debit invoices are marked paid automatically once the card is charged.
