Managing Orders from Merchant Mobile App




Overview:

All orders and bookings you receive from Storat will be shown in your orders dashboard on the mobile app. Buyers can book and buy your services listed on Storat and Storat Mobile App using different methods:

1. Direct Orders

If you have advertisements listed on Storat, customers can book your service directly. This is a direct order that will come only to you and show in your orders dashboard as an active order and your appointments dashboard as a tentative appointment.

2. Distributed Orders

For a few categories, customers can use an instant booking form to book a service (ex: home cleaning, moving, etc). For those orders, multiple merchants will receive the booking request by the app notification, the merchant that accepts the order first will be awarded the order.

Multiple merchants will receive the quotation request to submit a quote through the mobile app notification. The buyer will have an opportunity to review quotations from multiple merchants and then select one.
