Access Your Vendor Dashboard
- Log in to your Vendor Dashboard.
- Navigate to Products > Add New Product.
Product Name
Keep your product name clear and descriptive. Customers should instantly understand what you are selling.
Example: Organic Cotton Tote Bag or Handcrafted Leather Wallet, TanDescription
Short Description. Write a concise 1-2 sentence summary that appears at the top of your product page. This is your chance to hook the customer immediately.Provide a detailed explanation of your product including:
- Key features and benefits
- Materials and craftsmanship details
- Size, dimensions, or capacity
- Care instructions
- What makes it special or unique
Tip: Think about the questions customers might ask and answer them in your description. This builds confidence and reduces support queries.
Set Pricing and SKU
Price
Enter your standard selling price in Niara. Make sure it reflects your costs, platform fees, and desired margin.
If you are running a promotion, add a discounted price here. The original price will display as crossed out, showing customers the savings.
Create a unique identifier for this product to help you track inventory. SKUs are required on Elexbig.
Note: SKUs do not need to be complicated. Use a simple format that makes sense for your business, such as BAG-001, WALLET-TAN-01, or CANDLE-VAN-200G.
Upload Product Images
High-quality images are essential for converting browsers into buyers.
Image Requirements- Main image: Must have a white or neutral background
- Additional images: Show different angles, close-ups, scale, or lifestyle shots
- Minimum: 3 images recommended, 1000x1000px minimum size
- Quality: High resolution, well-lit, in focus
Tip: Customers cannot touch or try your product in person, so images need to do the heavy lifting. Great photos sell products faster than great descriptions alone.
Manage Inventory
We recommend enabling stock management so Elexbig can automatically track your inventory levels and prevent overselling.
Stock Settings- Stock quantity: Enter how many units you currently have available
Storehouse Management
Storehouse Management allows vendors to manage their product stock and control how customers can purchase products.
How It Works- Enable Stock Management: Turn this on to track the quantity of a product available in your store.
- Set Quantity: Enter the number of units currently available. For example, if you have 10 pieces, set the quantity to 10.
- Automatic Stock Update: When a customer purchases a product, the available quantity is automatically reduced.
- Out-of-Stock: When the quantity reaches 0, the product will be marked as Out of Stock.
- Allow Checkout When Out of Stock: You can enable this option if you want customers to still place orders even when the available stock reaches zero.
Example
If you have 5 Samsung chargers in stock:
Quantity: 5
After one customer buys one:
Remaining quantity: 4
After all five are sold:
Remaining quantity: 0 → Out of Stock
If Allow Checkout When Out of Stock is enabled, customers can still place an order even when the quantity is 0.
Important: Vendors should only enable checkout for out-of-stock products if they can reliably fulfil the order or restock the product quickly.
Accurate shipping information ensures customers are not surprised at checkout and helps you avoid unexpected costs.
Required Information- Weight: Enter the product weight (including packaging)
- Dimensions: Length, width, and height (if applicable)
- Shipping class: Select from flat rate, free shipping, or your custom shipping rules
Important: Inaccurate shipping information can lead to unexpected costs or customer disputes. Always double-check your weight and dimensions.Review and Publish
