# Manage Sellers

### Where to Manage Sellers

Go to your **Seller Dashboard on Web** and open the **Members** tab. From there:

* Tap into the Sellers section to see all current sellers in your marketplace.
* Click on any seller’s name to view their profile and make updates.

You can:

* **Adjust their seller role** – switch between Member, Seller, Moderator, or Admin.
* **Add private notes** – useful for internal admin tracking.
* **Enable or disable live access**.
* **Set or change your take rate** – increase or decrease the percentage you earn.

***

### Reviewing Seller Applications

Inside the **Members** tab, you’ll also find the **Applications** section. This is where new seller applications will appear.

* Tap into any application to read the applicant's info.
* Hit **Approve** or **Reject** – both options let you add a custom message that will be included in the email the applicant receives.

*Tip:* If you’re approving someone, this is a great time to welcome them and drop any important details like:

> “Congrats on becoming a seller! Be sure to check out the seller guidelines in the chat or reach out in the sellers channel if you have questions.”

### FAQs

<details>

<summary><strong>How do people apply to sell in my District marketplace?</strong></summary>

Members can go to your marketplace home page and tap the **“Apply”** button to fill out your seller application form. You can approve them in your Seller Dashboard (web, not app).&#x20;

<summary><strong>Can I add someone as a seller without them filling out the application?</strong></summary>

Yes! Have them join your marketplace as a member first. Then:\
Go to your Seller Dashboard > Members tab > Search their username > Tap their name > Change their role from “Member” to “Seller” > Save.

<summary><strong>Can a moderator or admin also sell?</strong></summary>

</details>

<details>

<summary><strong>Can I set my own seller guidelines?</strong></summary>

Yes! While all sellers must still follow District’s Terms of Service, you can set marketplace-specific guidelines. These might include:

* How often sellers should go live
* Rules around promoting off-platform activity
* Item restrictions based on your niche or focus (e.g. removing items or sellers that don’t align with your marketplace subject)

We recommend:

* Posting your rules in a seller-only chat channel – set the channel so only sellers can view and only admins can write. Check out this guide on [Creating Chat Channels](https://help.district.net/owners/getting-started/creating-chat-channels) for more information.&#x20;
* Including guidelines in your seller approval message or in your onboarding flow so expectations are clear from day one.
