hi

i building E-commerece base on wocommerce, and i want it to be base
on Drop shipping.

my question is how i made it work in the payment and email details[shipping]

i want the payment be base on paypal, so i will modify the setting to sent the email directly to the wholesaler) now the question how i sent also the payment of the product and also get paid,
( like in this example the product cost in my shop 25$ he get 20$ and i get 5$)

more one question in what type of system the wholesaler typically use for inventory information
like let me know what found in stock and how much of it.

    I've developed a dropshipping site for another client with similar objectives. I am not sure who your wholesaler is, but for that particular client of mine, he just take the order and payment from customer. Then manually place the order from his wholesaler himself.

    Its not a fully automated process, to be frank. And I believe it will also be a big challange to. For example, your wholesaler will probably not give you access to his inventory - or even if he does, you wouldn't know if its real-time or how frequently he updates.

    There are just so many factors involve that its better to just do it manually at the start, then once you get the hang of it, slowly look for ways to optimize and speed up the process.

    Just my 2 cents.

    Sounds like it could be challenging. Interested in what other WP have to say. Would be nice if you could accept the payment and then automatically forward the wholesaler the order and $20 via paypal or something...
