Shopify Marketplace Configuration Specialist Needed

**BlueWay Marketplace Directory — Setup & Launch (16–22 hrs)**

BlueWay is standing up a community marketplace: local businesses sell, community groups and schools earn a share when people shop through their link, and the public finds everyone in one searchable directory.

This is configuration and launch, not a greenfield build. You will wire five existing tools into one working system and leave it ready for a coordinator to onboard the first network.

**Stack**
Shopify + Garnet Marketplace, Storepoint, Simvoly, BixGrow. PayPal and Stripe already in play.

**You will**
- Turn on multi-vendor selling (vendor dashboards, product approval, vendor payouts)
- Embed and configure the public business directory (categories, hours, network tags, shop / book buttons)
- Build the hub page and group registration, including a school-district fee waiver path
- Set up affiliate tracking so each group gets a unique link and gets paid on attributed orders
- Seed one live network, run end-to-end tests, and hand off a short coordinator checklist

**You will not**
Build a custom app, rebuild the Shopify theme, write checkout extensions, or invent commission rates. If a required piece cannot be done in the apps’ settings, you document it and stop.

**Fit**
You have shipped Shopify multi-vendor + directory/affiliate apps before. You are comfortable in Simvoly (or similar site builders). You communicate in checklists, not essays. You can work from a locked V1 spec we provide after hire.

**To apply**
Send 3–5 sentences on a similar Shopify marketplace or affiliate setup you configured, which apps you used, and your availability this week. Do not send a generic cover letter.

Fixed scope. Spec delivered after award. Hours billed against the 16–22 hour cap unless we approve a change.
