# DemoPage for marketplaces and e-commerce: Get every new seller to their first listing.

> DemoPage walks new sellers and merchants through your dashboard: creating a listing, setting shipping, reading payouts, and answering buyer messages. It works on a practice store, narrates each screen, and answers from your seller help center, in 17 languages. Fees, payouts, account verification, and policy decisions stay with your team.

For: Marketplaces and commerce platforms with seller, merchant, or partner dashboards.

## What it walks

- **First listing, guided** ([Onboarding](https://demopage.io/use-cases/onboarding.md)). A setup link opens the seller's own dashboard and explains each page while they create their first listing. The guide never clicks; the seller does.
- **Seller how-tos** ([Support](https://demopage.io/use-cases/support.md)). “Why is my listing inactive?” gets the matching help article and the screen on a practice store.
- **Demos for large merchants** ([Sales demos](https://demopage.io/use-cases/sales-demos.md)). A brand evaluating your platform sees the merchant dashboard shaped to its catalog and tools, then your partner team takes the call.
- **Seller academy lessons** ([Training](https://demopage.io/use-cases/training.md)). Sellers practice a skill, like running a promotion, in a practice store, with a score and completion record for each.

## What stays with your team

- Fees, payouts, and refunds
- Account verification and tax forms
- Policy decisions and appeals
- Anything that charges or pays out money

In any demo, DemoPage never does these:
- Pay for anything
- Sign anyone up
- Change your CRM
- Make a phone call
- Send an email
- Use a visitor's own login
- Open a page you didn't pick
- Promise a discount

## What it needs

A practice store with made-up products and orders, and the seller help center that's allowed to answer. DemoPage's terms don't allow protected health information, payment card data, or government ID numbers in sandboxes or the pages you pick. A live demo can run in 17 languages.

## An example

Product: Bazaarly Seller Hub (a sample product)
- Company: Tidewater Candles
- Problem: We want to list here without retyping 200 products.
- Uses: Shopify
- Wants to see: Bulk import and shipping rates

Stops:
1. Bulk import (/listings/import): Shopify exports import as drafts.
2. Shipping profiles (/settings/shipping): Rates are set per profile, not per item.
3. Draft review (/listings/drafts): Drafts go live when you publish them.

Visitor asks: "Does it cost anything to list?"
Answer: The seller fees page says listing is free and a fee applies to each sale.
Handoff: Payout setup and verification go to your seller team.

## Questions

**Can DemoPage create listings for the seller?**
No. In the seller's own dashboard, the guide opens each page and explains it, and the seller makes every change. On a practice store, it can show the whole flow.

**Can sellers use it in their own language?**
Yes. The demo page, the spoken voiceover, and the answers come in 17 languages, including Spanish, Portuguese, German, Japanese, and Hindi.

**What does it cost at marketplace volume?**
Plans include a set number of live demo credits a month. Watching a finished recording and asking questions in chat don't count, so a seller who only watches costs almost nothing to serve.
