New Design

YoKart has undergone design overhaul making V8 most competent from the viewpoint of user experience. Seamless design and improved navigation are noteworthy changes in this version. The change can be experienced at all ends- seller, the customer and admin. New frontend and backend design ensures better customer experience as well as easy and better website management.

Product Catalog System

Instead of the sellers creating catalog for their products, admins can use their knowledge and experience to help them. This new feature of YoKart allows the admins to create a product catalog to which sellers can simply attach their price tags. And if there’s a product that sellers want to sell, they can request the admin to include it in the catalog. With this addition to YoKart, customers can also view other sellers selling the similar product in a certain category.

Multi-Lingual

YoKart V-8 allows users to switch to their preferred language on the go. Admin can include as many languages as they want. All you need to do is simply choose the language of your choice and that’s it. The dropdown list of all the languages supported by a marketplace built on YoKart V8 makes choosing the preferred language really easy and hassle free.

Multi-Currency

The multicurrency feature has also been added to V8 keeping in view varied goals and target market of different businesses.

This will not only enable businesses to expand globally but also impact their conversion rate positively.
