In this guide, we’ll explain how Tradly’s negotiation feature works and how to set it up for your marketplace.

​

Step 1: Setting Up Negotiation Blocks

To enable negotiation on a listing, you need to configure two specific blocks from the editor:

• CTA - Negotiate
• Seller Negotiation List

To set these up:

• Go to Editor > Listing.
• Select any row where you want to enable negotiations and add the two blocks mentioned above.

​

Step 2: How the Negotiation Works

Once you’ve set up the negotiation blocks, here’s how the feature will work:

​

For Buyers:

• When a buyer visits the listing details page, they will see two buttons: Buy Now and Negotiate.

• The Buy Now button allows buyers to purchase the product at the listed price.

• If the buyer wants to negotiate, they can click the Negotiate button, which opens a popup displaying a message box and a price input field.

  

• The buyer can enter their desired price and a message, then submit their offer.

  

​

Viewing Submitted Offers:

• After the offer is submitted, buyers can track their offer in the Negotiation section of the listing page.

​

For Sellers:

• Sellers can log in, go to their listing, and view the list of submitted offers in the Seller Negotiation List.
• The seller can see how many people have submitted offers and view their proposed prices.
• By clicking View All Offers, the seller will open a sidebar showing all the offers in detail.
• The seller can then review each offer individually and either Accept or Decline it.

​

Accepting an Offer:

• Once the seller accepts an offer, the price of the listing is updated to match the buyer’s proposed price.

​

For Buyers After Acceptance:

• When the buyer logs back in, they will see the updated price on the listing.
• If they click the Negotiate button again, the sidebar will show that their offer has been accepted.
• The buyer can now proceed by clicking Buy Now, which will add the product to their checkout page at the negotiated price.

​

Checkout:

• On the checkout page, the buyer can complete the purchase at the agreed-upon price.

This setup provides a flexible negotiation process for both buyers and sellers, making it easy to manage offers and agree on a fair price.
