Marketspread
What it is
Marketspread provides tools for managing markets, fairs, festivals, trade shows, expos, conferences, and other events. Its event features include interactive layouts, booth assignments, vendor messaging, rentals, payment processing, and reporting. Vendors can create online stores, manage inventory and orders, and offer local pickup, delivery, or shipping. The point-of-sale app is available for Android and Apple iOS phones and tablets. Integrated payments cover application fees, booth fees, rentals, and other payments; Visa, Mastercard, Discover, and Amex are listed as supported cards. API integrations can connect Marketspread data to Microsoft Power BI, Google Sheets, or Microsoft Excel, and provide JSON for custom website views. Vendors can use a free Standard profile to publish products and apply to events. Vendor Premium is $1.50 per month, billed annually, and includes an enhanced profile, public posts, a store link, reporting, top search, and VendorHub rank. Market and venue fees are charged per booth, per event: $15.00 for events under 100 days and $30.00 for events over 100 days. The product began as Farmspread for farmers markets before expanding to other event types.
