WordPress · Free · Service marketplace
A service is not a product. It needs a brief, a delivery, a revision and an approval. WP Sell Services gives you the whole thing: vendors, packages, orders, messaging, disputes and payouts, with checkout built in.
Version 1.4.0. Stripe, PayPal and offline payments are built in. Selling through WooCommerce, or paying vendors automatically? See Pro.

The whole point
Some work fits in a package with a price on it. Some work has to be described, quoted and negotiated first. WP Sell Services runs both, on one marketplace, and the vendor decides which one a job is.
Route one
A vendor publishes a service and it sells itself off the catalog.
Route two
No listing fits, so the buyer describes the work and vendors come to them.
And the job can still change after it starts
An order runs one track or the other. A milestone contract belongs to a posted job, a paid extension belongs to a catalog order, and the plugin refuses to mix them on the same order.
The listing
Not a title and a price. A packaged offer, assembled step by step.
Basic, Standard and Premium, each with its own price and delivery time.
Paid upgrades on top of the package, so a $45 job can leave as a $120 one.
Four images on the free plugin, plus an embedded video.
Answer the same five questions once instead of in every message thread.
Collected up front. The order does not start until they are answered.
So the thing can actually be found.
When no listing fits
Not every piece of work is sitting in a catalog waiting to be bought. A buyer posts a brief with a budget range, vendors read it and submit their own price and timeline, and the buyer picks the one they want.
The brief
Rebuild our membership site on WordPress
For the work that is too big to prepay
Milestone contracts split a job into phases. The buyer pays one at a time, and each phase unlocks only when the one before it is signed off. The order completes on its own once every phase is finished.
Scope grew? A phase can be added mid-contract.
Not a milestone job? Catalog orders get paid extensions instead, for add-ons agreed after the order started. An order shows one or the other, never both.
Eleven order statuses
Products ship. Services get briefed, delivered, revised and approved. The plugin models all of it, including the parts that go wrong.
The buyer answers the requirements the seller set. Work does not start until they do.
A messaging thread per order, with file attachments on both sides.
Files handed over for approval, not just dumped in an email.
The buyer can send it back. The seller can request a deadline extension.
Money clears to the seller balance, and the review window opens.
And the states nobody advertises
Not two audiences
Most marketplace plugins make you pick a lane: you are a vendor, or you are a customer. Here it is one account and one dashboard. A designer sells logos and hires a copywriter from the same login, and the marketplace opens on whichever side they use most.
Selling
Buying
Both at once
A community where members sell to each other does not have a vendor list and a customer list. It has members. This is built for that, and the landing section can be pointed anywhere with a filter.

No. Checkout is built in, with Stripe, PayPal and an offline option you confirm yourself. Pro adds WooCommerce, Easy Digital Downloads, Fluent Cart and SureCart if you would rather use one of those.
A product ships. A service gets briefed, delivered, revised and approved, and sometimes disputed. The plugin models that whole path with eleven order statuses instead of pretending it is a cart item.
Yes. A buyer posts a request, vendors send proposals, and the buyer compares them. A proposal can be a fixed price or a milestone contract paid one phase at a time.
Each phase unlocks once the one before it is signed off, and the parent order completes automatically when every phase is finished. You can add a phase mid-contract if scope grows.
Earnings build a balance, and they request a withdrawal. You set the commission rate globally or per vendor, a minimum withdrawal amount, a clearance period, and whether payouts run weekly, fortnightly or monthly.
Reviews are multi-criteria and go through a moderation queue, sellers progress through levels, and disputes have a formal path with evidence files and four resolution types including partial refund.
On service content only: 4 gallery images, 3 add-ons, 5 FAQ items and 5 buyer requirements per service. Everything else is unlimited. Pro removes those four caps.
Six Gutenberg blocks and nineteen shortcodes cover the service grid, search, categories, featured services, seller cards and buyer requests, so it works in the block editor or in Elementor, Beaver Builder and Bricks.
Yes. There is full REST coverage for the user-facing features, 125 plus endpoints with complete CRUD, which is why the admin UI and a third-party client see the same API.
Four more checkout platforms, the Razorpay gateway, automated vendor payouts through wallets, Stripe Connect and PayPal mass payouts, cloud storage on S3, Google Cloud or DigitalOcean Spaces, tiered commission rules, white-label branding, an analytics dashboard with export, and it removes the four content caps.

Install it, set your commission, and vendors can list a service the same day.
WBComDesigns is amazing. The WP plugins and themes are of top notch quality with lots of features and updated very frequently. Supports are very responsive and helpful. I use Reign with TutorLMS, and the experience is surprisingly smooth.…
