How to Monetize a Service Marketplace in 2 Different Ways with WordPress [No Coding Required]

In this short tutorial, we’ll show you how to easily monetize a marketplace of services with WordPress.

There are at least two ways to monetize a service marketplace and will discuss both of them:
1) The most common way is charging a commission on every transaction made through the website.
2) Another way is charging users for listing their services on your website.

For the sake of this tutorial, we'll use the HivePress plugin along with its Paid Listings extension. Also, we'll use TaskHive, a lightweight, clean and modern WordPress theme that allows you to build a marketplace of services or digital downloads, such as Fiverr or Upwork.

Hi,
I Cannot see the commission rate appear. Should I set up Woocommerce first ?

[greatsim]

Is this feature of commission is only listed with taskhive or not with listing hive or any theme of HivePress ?

I want to a full win win win situation, I want the client to list a service, affiliate to be able to promote it, and me to earn a piece of the profits too... so three different people getting paid on one transaction, is that possible.

Is this theme compatible with BoddyPress?
