So let's choose that now to create the account , fill up these details , check this box , then click register and it will ask for an email notification So if a vista goes to the inbox , you can see that they have received the meal .

Now , if they open it and click on this link , it'll take them to the member's dashboard .

So now the vista has created an account and become a member .

This means they cannot view any job on the site and order the ones they want .

Now , if the vista clicks here , it will show them all the jobs available on the site .

So if they want to view the details of this job , they can click here and now they can view all the details given in this job .

Now , let's say they want to purchase the job and if they click buy , now you can see that the button is not working .

This is because we have not set up a payment method on our website .

So to allow customers to purchase a job on our site , we need to set up a payment method .

So next , let's see how you can set up a payment method .

So to set it up , let's go to our dashboard .

Now go to check out click on payment gateways and you can see the two payment methods available .

You can select the one you want .

I'm going to choose trip .

Now , what if you want to let other freelancers post this service on your site so that your visitors can get the service from your website ?

Next , let's see how you can allow other freelancers to post a job on your website by doing this .

You can earn a commission whenever a freelancer completes a job on your website .

So when a customer orders a job , the full amount will be paid to you .

Once the freelancer completes and delivers the order , you can keep the portion of the amount as your commission and send the remaining amount to the freelancer .

So to allow freelancers to post a job on our site , first , we need to set up a commission .

So to set it up , let's go to our dashboard .

This means they cannot post their jobs and services on your website .

So once the seller is registered on your site , you will receive an email .

So let's go to our inbox .

Now , if you open the mail , it will show us the seller who has registered on our site .

Now , whenever a seller posts a job , you will receive an email to your inbox .

So to upload the seller's job , let's go to our inbox here , you can see that we have received an email .

Now , if you go to the admin inbox , you can see that we have received two emails , one from our website and one from Stripe .

So let's open the first email from Stripe .

And as you can see , we have received the payment from a customer .

Now , if we go back and open the second email from our website , you can see that we have received the order .

And if you click on the link , you can see the order and also you can see the payment that has been made .

As you can see the status is spending not to accept the job .

They can click on view , then click update and click .

Ok .

Now here you can see that the status has been changed to accepted .

So to check it , let's go to the vistas dashboard .

And if you click refresh , you can see that the order has been accepted .

Ok .

Just like the customer did .

Previously , the seller can directly chat with the customer from their dashboard .

Once they accept the job , all they have to do is click view , enter their message here , then click send and the customer will receive the message here .

Now , if they click on it , you can see the message sent by the seller .

Let's go to the customer's dashboard .

And if you click here , you can see the product sent by the seller .

Once the customer views the product and is satisfied with it , they can approve the delivery .

So to approve it , just close this .

And so now the customer has approved the relevant product and the order is complete .

As you can see the job status has been changed .

Now , let's go to the sell dashboard , click refresh .

Now , if we click view here , you can see the total amount paid by the customer and the commission taken by the admin .

So the balance which we have here is the money that the seller can request from the admin .

Next , let's see how a seller can request the money from the admin .

They can also get their payment from the admin directly by choosing this option .

I'm going to do the paypal option here .

You need to enter the email which you have been using for your paypal account .

I'm going to enter that .

So when the seller sends their request , you can send the money to this account .

Once they've entered their details , they can click save changes .

So now the seller has successfully set up their payment method and they cannot send a request to the admin .
