First, by "FREE", we mean FREE. No hidden fees, no
listing fees, no final value fees, no image fees. The Vendio Store
is completely 100% free. There is no catch. We offer a FREE Store so
more merchants can experience Vendio's powerful platform and see how
we've built a comprehensive selling solution that is unbelievably
easy to use. As your business grows, we hope you'll consider Vendio
as your partner and utilize our multi-channel selling applications
to take your revenues and profits to the next level. Your success
will be our success. It's that simple.
What is multi-channel selling and how can it help me?
A multi-channel seller is taking full advantage
the shopping oriented distribution opportunities available online.
These channels include marketplaces, search engines, and shopping
comparison sites. Vendio's multi-channel services enable you to get
your products in front of more buyers and help you manage your ROI
and increase profitability. Vendio can help you find new customers
on eBay, Amazon, Google and Yahoo search engines, Google Product
Search, and shopping comparison engines like Shopzilla and
Shopping.com.
How long has Vendio been in business?
Since 1999, Vendio has helped merchants
successfully sell online, reach more buyers, and grow their
businesses. Over one million sellers have trusted Vendio's auction management system to help them sell more than $15 billion in merchandise to
nearly 300 million buyers.
Why should I use Vendio?
If you sell online, it makes sense to consider a
channel management solution to automate your selling tasks and
expand your online reach. Choose Vendio over other providers in the
space because we provide the best-in-class technology, comprehensive
features that are easy to use, at the best price. Are you using
ChannelAdvisor or Infopia? Vendio can save you 50% or more off your
channel management fees. Why pay more for less intuitive solutions?
If the store is free, why do you require a credit card on registration?
You will not be charged anything when you register
for a free store. Vendio collects credit card information in order
to validate your identity and prevent fraudulent sellers from
signing up.
What does Vendio cost?
The Vendio Store is free. Syndicating your
listings to Amazon.com will be free for 2009! We charge final value
fees for selling on eBay. Vendio also offers a variety of
applications (some are free!) to help you increase sales online.
