- One app covers the customer account, the vendor account, and the wholesaler account.
- A cart belongs to one shop. Delivery charges show before checkout.
- The feature list below is the product, split by audience.
A neighbourhood shop app should show the shop's real catalogue, not a generic mall. The sections under this answer are the customer tools, the vendor tools, and the wholesaler role in the current app.
What can customers do in the neighbourhood shop app?
They discover nearby shops, build a cart for one shop, see charges before they confirm, and track My Orders. The table above lists each customer feature.
- Discovery: categories and shops that can serve the address.
- Checkout: prices and delivery charges before the order.
- After the order: status, and khata where that shop offers it.
What can vendors do in the neighbourhood shop app?
They set the shop up in the app, publish products, accept orders, and stay live on a subscription after the 7-day trial. The same table lists vendor and wholesaler features beside the customer column.
One app, separate accounts
| Audience | Main job |
|---|---|
| Customer | Find one nearby shop and track the order |
| Vendor | Publish a catalogue and fulfil pickup or own delivery |
| Wholesaler | Publish a wholesale catalogue and fulfil vendor orders |
| Same app | Use the same VoLoMart app, with separate accounts |
What can wholesalers do in the neighbourhood shop app?
The wholesaler column lists the same tools as the vendor column: catalogue, orders, khata, alerts, reports, QR, and delivery partners they add. Khata is for the vendors who buy from them. The plan is the same for both: a 7-day trial, then Starter from ₹99 a month, with no commission on the order value.
What the app does not decide for the shop
The vendor still sets hours and the service area. Each order is for one shop. The feature list does not add a platform rider or a commission on the order value.

FAQ
Questions? Look here.
Does VoLoMart have separate apps for customers, vendors, and wholesalers?
One VoLoMart app covers all three. Sign up with the VoLoMart app as a customer to shop nearby, as a vendor to run the shop, or as a wholesaler to supply shops.
How do customers pay?
Cash on delivery is available. Pay on khata works when the vendor enables store credit and approves the customer. Delivery charges are shown before you confirm.
Does the vendor feature list include a commission?
No. The shop keeps the order value. After the 7-day trial, staying live is a subscription from ₹99 a month.
Where is shop registration?
Sign up with the VoLoMart app. The website explains the features.
