WP Sell Services: Service Marketplace Plugin for WordPress – Now Live
Update (April 2026): WP Sell Services v1.0.0 is now live. Everything described below is shipped and available. Read the full developer story here.
WP Sell Services is the service marketplace plugin we always wanted to build. For years, we shipped Woo Sell Services for WooCommerce and EDD Sell Services for Easy Digital Downloads. They worked, but they were always limited by the e-commerce platform underneath.
The feedback was consistent: “What if I don’t want WooCommerce?” and “Can I just process payments directly?” and “I need a service workflow, not a product checkout.”
So we built WP Sell Services from scratch. Not a fork. Not a refactor. A completely new plugin designed around service marketplace workflows from day one.
What makes it different
No platform dependency
The free plugin runs standalone with built-in Stripe and PayPal checkout. No WooCommerce, no EDD, no extra plugins needed. Your marketplace works out of the box.
If you want WooCommerce, EDD, FluentCart, or SureCart – the Pro version adds them as optional integrations. Switch anytime. Your marketplace data stays intact because it lives in its own dedicated database tables, not in WooCommerce order meta.
Two marketplace models in one plugin
Vendors list services with tiered pricing packages and buyers purchase directly. Or buyers post project requests with budgets and vendors compete with proposals. Both models feed into the same order workflow – requirements, messaging, delivery, revisions, reviews.
Complete order lifecycle
11 order statuses with automatic transitions. Deadline reminders. Late order detection. Auto-complete. Revision limits per package. Dispute resolution with admin mediation. Commission tracking with automated withdrawal scheduling.
Built for developers
A complete REST API with 125+ endpoints covers every marketplace feature. A batch endpoint combines multiple requests for mobile app efficiency. Hundreds of hooks and filters. Theme-overridable templates. WordPress Abilities API support for AI integration. Everything you need to extend it or build on top of it.
Free vs Pro
The free plugin is a complete marketplace. Stripe, PayPal, vendor dashboards, buyer requests, reviews, disputes, commission tracking, REST API – all included. No feature locks.
Pro adds what you need at scale: WooCommerce/EDD/FluentCart/SureCart checkout, Razorpay, Stripe Connect for direct vendor payments, PayPal Mass Payouts, vendor analytics with charts and export, cloud storage (S3, GCS, DigitalOcean), recurring services, vendor subscriptions, tiered commissions, white-label branding, and wallet integrations.
Pro starts at $69/year. Lifetime licenses available. 30-day money-back guarantee.
