Transforming a WooCommerce store into a multivendor marketplace
ContextAsiaMint Collections operated a WooCommerce store selling collectibles. The client wanted to transform the site into a marketplace where other vendors could offer their products. The site was already experiencing 4 million attack attempts daily.Prior SecurityBefore starting the migration, security was implemented with Cloudflare (free) and Wordfence (free). Cloudflare filters at the edge with bot detection and "I'm Under Attack" mode during peak times. Wordfence handles WordPress protection - login attempt limiting, malware scanning, firewall rules.Technical StackIntegration of Dokan Business on the existing WooCommerce installation. Purchased during Black Friday 2024 - lifetime license for $1,247 instead of $2,495. The Business tier was necessary for vendor withdrawal systems, PayPal Marketplace integration, and advanced commission management.Frontend redesign with Wolmart (marketplace theme with pre-built vendor templates) and Elementor for visual customization. Saved several weeks compared to custom development.FunctionalityDokan adds the multivendor layer on top of WooCommerce. Each vendor has a dashboard to manage products and orders. Commission calculations are done automatically at checkout. Vendor payments are processed via PayPal Marketplace or Stripe.ResultMarketplace operational with autonomous vendor management. The 4 million daily attacks continue but are filtered without performance impact. Security cost: €0 in subscriptions. The client retains full ownership - open-source WordPress/WooCommerce, perpetual Dokan license. - UnilevereCommerceBIOTECHSeptember 2019 - December 2022 (3 years and 3 months)United StatesDuring COVID, I revamped 600 products in their range, including illustrations and descriptions, to highlight their safety and health benefits.
