Executive Summary
Implementing two-sided marketplaces with Stripe Connect split escrows, multi-warehouse catalog indexing, and vendor portal security.
Automating Multi-Vendor Escrow and Commission Splits
Multi-vendor marketplaces require complex financial transactions: a customer buys products from three separate sellers in one cart, and funds must be split, escrowed until delivery confirmation, and paid out automatically minus platform commissions.
Key Architectural Takeaways:
- Stripe Connect Custom/Express accounts handle KYC and direct seller bank transfers.
- Webhook listeners verify shipping tracking numbers before releasing escrow funds.
Conclusion & Final Thoughts
Custom marketplace architectures provide the security, compliance, and automated payouts needed to scale seller ecosystems.
