Product update - November 2026
Your monthly update of Garnet Marketplace is here! October brought close to 50 releases.
The highlights: vendors joining from Wix, Shopware and Odoo, shipping logs for every checkout quote, and a seller guide for your vendors.
1. Case study: THE GO-TO
Curious to see what it's like to work with us? Here's a case study from THE GO-TO, the UK's destination for elevated gifting with 150+ brands. When their previous provider shut down right before the Q4 peak, Garnet migrated all 150+ vendors in a month, with their products, integrations, Stripe accounts and shipping settings.

2. Documentation is now available upon sign-in
For security reasons, the marketplace documentation is now reserved to the admins of Garnet marketplaces: opening it asks you to sign in first.
Links from the app, bookmarks and emails keep working after the sign-in.
Someone on your team needs access without a Garnet account? Contact us.

3. Vendors on Wix, Shopware and Odoo can join your marketplace
Three more platforms this month: vendors selling on Wix, Shopware or Odoo connect their store to your marketplace in a few minutes.
Their products and stock stay up to date, your orders land in their own system ready to ship, and tracking comes back to your customers.
You can now recruit vendors wherever they already sell.

4. A seller guide for your vendors
Your vendors now have a public help site in your colours, explaining their side of the marketplace from adding products to getting paid.
Link it from your seller page or welcome email; vendors also find it in their menu.
Your own rules, such as commission or payout schedule, stay yours to tell.
Learn more
5. Shipping logs
See every shipping quote your checkout asked for: the cart, where it ships, the rates each vendor offered and what your customers were shown.
Spot at a glance the destinations and vendors that leave customers without a rate, fix the vendor's shipping, and check the new rates without placing a test order.
Learn more
6. Roles and permissions for admin users
Give each member of your team a role that fits their job: an order handler who never touches payouts, an accountant who only reads them.
Create a role, tick what it may see or change, and pick it when you invite an admin.
An admin can never grant more access than they have, and the AI apps they connect are limited to their role too.
Learn more
7. Announcements on the dashboard
Post an announcement at the top of the dashboard and every vendor sees it as soon as they log in: a sales campaign, a shipping deadline, a policy change.
Pick a colour that matches its urgency, and turn it off when it is no longer relevant: it is kept for next time.

8. Shopify vendors choose the products they share
Vendors selling from a Shopify store can now pick, from the Garnet Seller app, which products your marketplace imports.
They add products from their own catalogue and remove the ones they no longer want listed, which come off the marketplace straight away.
Available on marketplaces that import approved products only.
Learn more
9. Fulfill orders in bulk
Vendors can now fulfill many orders at once: select them in the order list, type each tracking number, and fulfill them in one click.
Shipping software users download the orders with their addresses as a CSV, add the tracking numbers and upload it back.

10. Share a discount or a shipping refund with your vendors
Decide, order by order, who pays for a discount or a refunded shipping: split it between the vendors of the order and your marketplace, in percentages or amounts.
A promotion run together with a brand, or a late delivery you compensate, no longer needs a manual payout correction: each vendor's payout reflects its share straight away.

11. Arrange your forms by drag and drop
The product and vendor profile forms now have a layout panel: drag fields into sections, or set them aside as unused, and see the form as your vendors will.
Each field also has a scope: shown to vendors, for your team only, or hidden.
Learn more
12. Style the messaging your way
The floating messages widget now accepts your own stylesheet, so it matches your store's design exactly instead of Garnet's default look.
Leave it empty and the default design stays.
