How to create a Fiverr-like freelance marketplace on WordPress

David Garcia David Garcia 2 3 months ago fiverr-alternative freelance marketplace

I want to build a service marketplace similar to Fiverr where freelancers list their services with tiered pricing, clients can order directly, and I take a commission. I need payment processing, a review system, and vendor management.

Is there a WordPress solution for this or do I need a custom platform?

WP Sell Services does exactly this — it is a complete Fiverr-style service marketplace for WordPress. Here is what it includes:

  • Three-tier pricing — every service has Basic, Standard, and Premium packages with custom pricing, delivery times, and inclusions. Plus add-ons for upselling.
  • 11-status order workflow — from new order through requirements collection, active work, delivery, revision requests, to completion and approval. Full lifecycle management.
  • Commission system — set a global commission rate (0-50%) or custom rates per vendor. Tips are commission-free. Earnings dashboard with withdrawal requests.
  • Four-tier seller levels — New Seller, Level 1, Level 2, Top Rated. Sellers progress automatically based on performance.
  • Dispute resolution — structured workflow with evidence submission, admin mediation, and resolution types (full refund, partial refund, revision, mutual agreement).
  • Review system — 5-star multi-criteria ratings (communication, quality, delivery) with moderation queue.
  • Standalone checkout — works without WooCommerce. Pro adds Stripe, PayPal, and Razorpay direct gateways.

The free version handles everything except payment gateways (uses offline/manual payments). Pro adds Stripe, PayPal, Razorpay, analytics, cloud storage, and expanded service limits.
