Vendor payment system for WordPress marketplaces
When you are juggling vendors, products and custom deals, a basic spreadsheet is not a vendor payment system, it is a liability.
Siren turns your existing WordPress store into a reliable vendor payment system. Connect vendors to what they sell, track their earnings automatically and close each payout period with clean, reviewable numbers.
Give your vendors a clear view of how they get paid
In a curated marketplace, you decide what gets listed and who gets to sell it. The hard part is making sure every vendor gets the right share when orders start coming in.
If you are adding vendors by hand, copying totals into a sheet and trying to remember which products have special terms, it is only a matter of time before questions start. One refund here, one bundled product there and suddenly your vendor payouts feel fragile.
With Siren, rules live inside your WordPress site, not in someone’s private spreadsheet. Vendors are linked to the products and categories they earn on, their earnings grow in the background and your vendor payment system stays consistent as your catalog and vendor list evolves.
Connect vendors directly to your catalog
Set vendors up as collaborators and map them to the products, bundles or categories they should earn from. When an order is placed, Siren checks which vendors are attached, applies the revenue share rules for that program and records what each vendor earned.
You can open a single view and see how much each collaborator is owed, which orders contributed to that total, and what’s ready to be paid this cycle.
Turn earnings into payout runs in a few clicks
When it’s time to pay affiliates, you don’t have to rebuild the math.
Select the period you want to pay out, and Siren groups all unpaid earnings into a payout run with one line per affiliate.
See what was paid, when, and why
You can see when a payout was created, which affiliates were included, how much each received, and which earnings were covered. If there’s a dispute or an audit, you can open the run and show exactly what happened.
Vendor payment system inside the stack you already trust
Siren adds vendor payment system capabilities to your existing WordPress site so you can run a marketplace on tools you already know.
Pay vendors in a curated digital marketplace
List courses, digital products or downloads that your team approves and publishes. Siren tracks which vendors are attached to each item and calculates their earnings whenever a sale is made.
Share revenue with instructors and content creators
Assign instructors or content partners to courses, memberships or lessons and give them a defined share of enrollments and renewals without leaving WordPress.
Handle multi vendor products and bundles
Support products that involve several vendors, such as joint courses or bundled offers, and let Siren split revenue between them according to the rules you set.
Tools to keep vendor payouts predictable
Siren gives you structure for building a vendor payment system, as well as the controls you need to keep payouts accurate as your marketplace scales.
Multiple vendor programs
Create different programs for standard vendors, premium partners, internal brands or house products, each with its own revenue share and payout schedule.
Catalog based rules
Set shares at the product, category or bundle level so your vendor payment system lines up with how your store is organized.
Multiple vendors on a single order
Attach several vendors to a product or program and let Siren calculate each vendor’s share of every qualifying order.
Program scope
Limit vendor programs to the parts of your catalog they belong to, such as specific categories, collections or offers, so experimental deals do not leak into your whole store.
Special terms for key relationships
Give strategic vendors different splits or minimum earnings without rebuilding your global setup.
Earnings tied to real events
Base vendor earnings on the events that matter, such as initial sales, renewals, upgrades or other tracked actions, so recurring revenue is handled correctly.
Payout overview
Review pending and payable amounts across all vendor programs in one place before you approve a payout run.
Payout periods
Define payout periods that match how you work, such as monthly, quarterly or custom windows, and let Siren group vendor earnings for you.
CSV exports
Download payout data in CSV format so your finance or operations team can process payments through the accounting or payment tools they already use.
History you can refer back to
Keep a record of what each vendor earned in each period so you can answer questions and audit past payouts without digging through old reports.
Frequently Asked Questions
Siren connects vendors to your products and keeps track of what they earn on each order. At the end of a payout period, it shows you exactly how much each vendor should be paid, so WordPress can act as the center of your vendor payment system instead of relying on external spreadsheets.
Yes. You can assign multiple vendors to a product or program and give each one a separate share. When orders come in, Siren calculates each vendor’s portion automatically.
Yes. When your commerce plugin supports recurring payments, you can choose whether vendors earn only on the first payment, on renewals or on both. Siren applies those rules when calculating vendor earnings for each period.
You can adjust revenue share rules at the program, product or category level. New rules apply to future orders and payout periods, so you can renegotiate terms without rewriting your entire vendor payment system.
Vendor earnings start in a pending state. If an order is refunded or cancelled, those amounts can be removed before they become payable, so you are not paying vendors on revenue that did not stick.
No. Siren handles tracking and calculation. You export vendor payout data to CSV and continue sending payments through your existing accounting, payroll or payment services.
Siren is so much more than an affiliate plugin with its multiple rewards structures. There’s nothing like it on the market. Period.
