Custom Laravel E-Commerce & Marketplace Development

Shopify and WooCommerce work well until your business model doesn't fit their assumptions — multi-vendor marketplaces, negotiated B2B pricing, non-standard checkout flows. We build fully custom e-commerce platforms and marketplaces on Laravel, with Stripe Connect handling vendor payouts correctly instead of forcing a single-seller platform to pretend it's a marketplace. Pairs naturally with a custom admin panel for day-to-day management.

Where Shopify and WooCommerce Stop Fitting a Real Marketplace

Splitting a single payment across multiple sellers, holding a platform commission, and settling the remainder to each vendor on their own payout schedule is not something a standard single-seller checkout was ever built to do. Businesses attempting this on a platform designed for one seller end up reconciling vendor payouts manually in a spreadsheet, which does not scale past a handful of vendors and introduces real risk of a payout mistake.

B2B pricing rarely follows a simple retail price list — negotiated rates per account, volume-based tiers, and pricing that changes based on a customer's purchase history. Off-the-shelf platforms handle single-tier retail pricing well and fight you the moment pricing needs to be genuinely conditional.

A checkout flow that needs an approval step before payment — a quote sent, reviewed, and confirmed before charging a card — or a multi-step B2B ordering process doesn't map onto a standard add-to-cart-and-pay flow, forcing awkward workarounds or a manual sales process running alongside the online store.

Stock sold across multiple channels — your own site, a marketplace listing, a physical location — without real-time sync means overselling a product that's actually out of stock somewhere else, discovered only when a customer's order can't be fulfilled.

Complex fulfillment logic — split shipments from different vendors, partial fulfillment, backorder handling — is exactly the category of business logic generic e-commerce platforms handle through a stack of paid apps rather than as a core capability.

The payment webhook handling and idempotency discipline this requires is the same engineering behind our API integration work — applied specifically to marketplace payment flows.

What Goes Into a Custom Laravel Marketplace Build

Multi-Vendor Payouts via Stripe Connect

Express or Standard Connect accounts per vendor, automatic commission splitting on every transaction, and payouts settled on the schedule your platform actually needs — not a manual reconciliation process.

Custom Shopping Cart & Checkout Logic

Approval-before-payment flows, quote-to-order processes, and multi-step B2B checkout built around your actual sales process rather than a generic add-to-cart flow.

Advanced & Tiered Pricing Engine

Negotiated account-level rates, volume discounts, and conditional pricing rules calculated correctly at checkout — not maintained as a side spreadsheet because the platform's price list is fixed.

Real-Time Multi-Channel Inventory Sync

Stock levels kept consistent across your own storefront, marketplace listings, and physical locations, preventing the overselling that comes from each channel tracking inventory independently.

Split Shipment & Fulfillment Workflows

Multi-vendor orders that ship from different locations, partial fulfillment, and backorder handling built as core order logic, not a paid app bolted onto a single-seller platform.

Vendor Onboarding & KYC

New sellers onboarded with the identity verification Stripe Connect requires before payouts begin, built into your platform's signup flow rather than a manual back-and-forth.

Commission & Revenue Reporting

Platform commission, vendor earnings, and payout history reported clearly per vendor and in aggregate — the financial visibility a marketplace operator actually needs.

Admin Management Panel

Order, vendor, and inventory management through a custom FilamentPHP admin panel, giving your team a fast interface instead of database access.

Frequently Asked Questions About Custom Laravel E-Commerce

It depends on how much control your platform needs over the vendor experience. Express accounts give a faster, more streamlined onboarding with less UI to build. Standard accounts give vendors more direct control over their own Stripe dashboard. We recommend the right fit during scoping based on your vendor relationship model.

Yes, if that's the goal — data migration for products, orders, and customer history is scoped as part of the project. Some businesses instead run a custom platform alongside an existing store during a transition period, which we can also plan for.

Yes, through Stripe Connect's built-in KYC requirements — vendors complete identity verification as part of onboarding before payouts are enabled, which is a Stripe Connect requirement we build directly into your platform's signup flow.

Yes. Pricing logic is built around your actual account structure — retail customers see standard pricing while B2B accounts see their negotiated or tiered rates, calculated correctly at checkout for each.

Stock levels update centrally the moment a sale happens on any connected channel, so your platform never shows availability that's already been sold elsewhere.

In most cases, yes, if the system exposes an API. We assess feasibility during the discovery call before scoping the integration.

A single-seller custom store typically takes three to four weeks. A multi-vendor marketplace with Stripe Connect payouts and vendor onboarding runs six to nine weeks, fixed sprint by sprint in the scoping document.
